They wasted her on Gotham, and she was only there for one season, so this is fine. This show is becoming known for it weird casting decisions, though! Outside of the Crisis crossovers, she's one of the few actors to get to play the same DC character twice. Link to comment

Loved Bridget Regan since I first saw her on Legend of the Seeker years ago and I loved her in pretty much everything else, even if I wished she got bigger roles (still wish Dottie had a bigger role in the MCU.) Looking forward to her take on Poison Ivy! 2 Link to comment

Trini September 21, 2021 Share September 21, 2021 Notes on the new Batwoman costume, at TV Insider: Quote Batwoman Uniformly Perfect - A bold new Batwoman deserved an equally eye-catching look in this CW series about the iconic DC Comics superheroine. In January, Season 2 introduced ex-con Ryan Wilder (Javicia Leslie), the first live-action Black Batwoman, to take the place of Kate Kane (Ruby Rose). Style Points - Costume designer Maya Mani wanted to create something reflecting Ryan’s “highly skilled” fighting style and “encapsulating her raw, athletic and passionate nature.” The suit, made by Ocean Drive Leather, keeps the classic red and black color scheme (save for that brash red wig!) but features laser etching for more visual depth and a stronger silhouette. The forearm gauntlets are redder, her boots are shorter and that utility belt fairly pops with color. It’s an ideal look for the unwavering defender of Gotham City. ... Link to comment

Trini September 29, 2021 Share September 29, 2021 Preview of the general storylines for Season 3 at TV Insider: Quote Now that Gotham City embraces its new Batwoman (Javicia Leslie, who replaced Ruby Rose last year), the caped crusader is about to be awash in familiar foes—or at least versions of them. Season 2’s finale saw Batman’s collection of villain artifacts floating down the river: the Mad Hatter’s chapeau, the Penguin’s umbrella and a sprig of Poison Ivy’s plants. They won’t remain unclaimed for long. “We call them Bat trophies,” says Batwoman showrunner Caroline Dries. “In the first few episodes, they start washing up on shore and we see a derivative of our old-school Bat villains take possession of them.” Leslie’s Ryan Wilder and ops pro Luke Fox (Camrus Johnson) have equally tricky family matters to handle. Riverdale vet Robin Givens is set to join as Ryan’s birth mom, tech mogul Jada Jet, and Luke discovers a mysterious link between his late father and the supersuit he’s been sporting as crime fighter Batwing. Says Dries, “Luke realizes that being a superhero is so much bigger than putting on a suit.” Batwoman, Season 3 Premiere, Wednesday, October 13, 9/8c, The CW Link to comment
Trini September 30, 2021 Share September 30, 2021 Caroline Dries and Javicia Leslie highlighted in Variety: 'Variety’s Women’s Impact Report 2021' Quote The Women of “Batwoman”: Caroline Dries, Javicia Leslie Caroline Dries, Creator, Showrunner Javicia Leslie, Actor Leslie didn’t have high hopes about landing the role of Ryan Wilder — the character that replaced “Batwoman” lead Kate Kane after Ruby Rose exited the series in 2020. “I turned in my audition and stepped away and thought, ‘Cool,’” she says. “They’re probably never going to pick a Black woman.’” But Dries knew within “five seconds” that Leslie was Wilder. Casting the first Black, LGBTQ-central female superhero to lead a broadcast television series wasn’t something Dries set out to do, but when she did, the showrunner says, it “definitely changed the perspective that I had when I started writing my character. It forced me, in the best possible way, to review the paradigm of how I was seeing this character, what she could actually do and how her point of view could be way more unique than other stuff we’d done on the show.” What would you change about showbiz? “It’s starting to change, but I’d like to see more female heads of studios and networks. There’s a little bit more balance when you have more females in charge,” says Leslie. “I wish there were better, more regimented intensive training programs and more access to training programs for all departments, specifically writers. It’s so hard to get your foot in the door and for a lot of people, when they finally do get their foot in the door, they’re not quite ready yet,” Dries says. Link to comment

Trini October 5, 2021 Share October 5, 2021 'How Ryan Wilder Has Improved 'Batwoman' and the Arrowverse' Quote Since her introduction to the Arrowverse, Ryan Wilder (Javicia Leslie) has opened The CW’s Batwoman to new opportunities, taking the show in a completely different direction. She’s a character that offers more to those around her than the leads of the majority of the other Arrowverse projects, which Batwoman never fails to prioritize. Despite her story being partially held back by Kate’s disappearance and the mystery surrounding that, which enveloped the characters and overtook a significant portion of Ryan’s inaugural season, Ryan Wilder has stood tall as the new Crimson Knight. And, she’s done things that Kate Kane (Ruby Rose and Wallis Day) never could and/or would if she were still calling the shots. ... 2 Link to comment

Trini October 13, 2021 Share October 13, 2021 Preview from Javicia and Showrunner Dries: https://ew.com/tv/batwoman-season-3-preview-javicia-leslie/ Quote Introducing these new villains has affected the show's tone as well. "The tonal vibe that we leaned to is more of a horror, action-thriller tone. That plays out in almost every episode," Dries says. "On The Flash, they have metahumans that can do all of these crazy things, so that makes them really challenging villains for the Flash and his team to go up against. With our show, she's going up against human beings. So how do you still make them feel formidable? How do you still get the scares and the tension? And so it almost ends up leaning itself towards more of a thriller." Ugh - another of my shows going for a horror vibe? Do Not Want! Link to comment

I love y’all, don’t think I haven’t seen all the love today. But yea fam, she was fired. And it is VERY hard to be fired when you’re the lead. Imagine what u have to do for that 2 happen Since it was claimed she “walked away” last year I’m sure some of you may be pretty confused or upset, and even moreso that a lot of lies were spread today. Just know we have a lot of great souls working on this show and none of this changes that. From the top to the bottom. 2 Link to comment
