He got name checked in her posts that are making the rounds. I would say something too. It will probably get deleted but at least it will be up long enough to get screencapped and shared. Out of all of her allegations, the one that can be verified is the stunt woman who was paralyzed the day before the shut down. I never heard anything about the one that was severely burned and that would have made the press. Edited October 21, 2021 by mtlchick 2 Link to comment

Trini October 21, 2021 Share October 21, 2021 Well, now people are talking: 'Batwoman Crew Member Backs WBTV, Calls Ruby Rose a 'Dictator'' excerpt: Quote Filmmakers, no matter what position they are on a film set deserve to be treated with respect. That’s how I was taught growing up and in film school, and when I read her article claiming that the production was at fault, it infuriated me because having been there, I don’t wanna stand by and let her badmouth a company that she tried to screw over. No matter how bad your day, you have no right to be cruel. And season 1 was her reign of cruelty. Link to comment
Trini October 22, 2021 Share October 22, 2021 Batwoman Paley Center panel: Quote Stars and creatives from The CW's Batwoman (Nick Creegan, Caroline Dries, Robin Givens, Camrus Johnson, Nicole Kang, Javicia Leslie, Rachel Skarsten, and Meagan Tandy) gather on October 3, 2021, with moderator D-Nice to celebrate their show. Topics include: why cast members, writers, and producers feel that the show's third season has been easier to film than its predecessors; Leslie's feelings on taking over the role of Batwoman in season two; fans' reactions to how the show is "at the forefront of positive representation" for people of color; what made Givens want to be part of the DC Comics universe; the producers' goal to thematically explore mental illness throughout the upcoming season; how Johnson and his stunt-double finally got used to the Batwing suit; and the near-accident that occurred on set when Leslie was driving the Batmobile.

Primal Slayer October 22, 2021 Share October 22, 2021 I do believe Ruby when she speaks about the accidents on set and while they are always horrible, it does sadly happen. TWD had a pretty big accident and Alec Baldwins new movie just had a crewmember die from a prop gun misfiring. WB/CW definitely should take care of the people it happens to as I think the PA that was paralyzed had to open up a gofundme afterwards to cover their bills. 1 Link to comment
Trini October 25, 2021 Share October 25, 2021 Bigger outlets haven't touched this yet (and maybe they won't, this is getting messy), but apparently Ruby Rose made more comments on instagram, including screenshots of emails: 'Ruby Rose Begins Releasing Emails Supporting Her Batwoman Allegations' -- Rose also responds to the previous CBR.com article with the crew member's statement.

Chaser October 25, 2021 Share October 25, 2021 (edited) Honestly, I’m not really sure what’s going to get accomplished. I read that and then popped over to Twitter to see more industry people talking about how awful she is on set. Sounds like it’s going to cancel itself out. Which is sad if it means potentially poor/unsafe working conditions will not be addressed. Edited October 25, 2021 by Chaser 3 Link to comment
JayDub1987 October 25, 2021 Share October 25, 2021 I just caught onto this show recently, and then all of this news comes out. I find it humorous that there are multiple accounts of Rose being unbearable to work with, but there's still people on various platforms who say that her accusations are true. And she asked for a "no yelling policy?" I'm sorry, but these celebrities would never make it in the real world. *Sets up flameproof shield for the hate I'll probably get Link to comment

Chaser October 25, 2021 Share October 25, 2021 It doesn’t have to be mutually exclusive. I’ve seen a lot of posting about Ruby’s onset behavior since the allegations were made but I haven’t seen anything about Scott. She’s also claiming he is filing a lawsuit against her.

However, leading up to the exchange between the two, Ryan proved time and time again why she not only deserved to continue as Batwoman but is someone who is an invaluable addition to the Bat-Family. As we get ready for the new season of Batwoman, let’s look back at some standout episodes from last season that showcased Ryan Wilder, proving she is exactly who should be behind the cowl. ... 1 Link to comment

Trini November 25, 2021 Share November 25, 2021 *Spoilers* if you haven't seen the midseason finale; a quote from Dries about the latest plot developments here: Quote “We were admittedly shocked and thrilled to be able to bring The New Joker to life on Batwoman,” showrunner Caroline Dries said in a statement to Decider. “Nick brings the perfect level of humor, unpredictability, and ruthlessness to the part. Just when the Bat Team thinks they have a handle on their problems, Marquis is going to unleash a level of mayhem Gotham City hasn’t seen since Batman’s reign.” And an interview with Nick Creegan about Marquis at TVLine: Quote TVLINE | What has it been like for you to tackle mental health through this character? I think the most eye-opening part is that we have so many people in our own lives that might not feel seen, or that might not feel like they have the ability to emote in a healthy way. Oftentimes men are told, ‘Don’t cry. That’s for a girl,’ or women are told to be more ladylike. In reality, we should be able to express ourselves in a healthy way from the beginning so that we never get to a point like Marquis Jet. With Marquis, the truth of the matter is he just never felt fully loved and understood by his family. He feels like an outcast. He’s always felt like he wasn’t enough for his mother, and he always felt like he didn’t really have anybody else to lean on. ... Link to comment
Trini November 26, 2021 Share November 26, 2021 At DC, profile of Sophie: 'The Incredible Journey of Batwoman's Sophie Moore' Quote In the span of two years, everything has changed in Sophie’s life and the journey is just getting started. She has loved, lost, changed careers and seen things that have caused her to question everything she believes in. She’s gone from an adversary to an ally and tried on many other roles along the way. It’s hard to find a character on Batwoman who has changed as much as she has, and that includes Ryan and Kate. (Maybe Mary Hamilton has her beat at the moment, but I’m going to go out on a limb and say her Poison Ivy turn isn’t going to last.) ... Link to comment

Trini December 2, 2021 Share December 2, 2021 'Can They Draw Too?: Six DC Actors Who Became DC Authors' Quote Camrus Johnson – Batwing June 8th, 2021 was a pretty big day for Camrus Johnson, who plays Luke Fox on TV’s Batwoman. In addition to being the scion to Wayne Enterprises’ Lucius Fox, Luke also fights crime as the high-tech superhero, Batwing. Not only was the world treated to the first look at his live action Batwing suit that day, but it was also the day Johnson earned his first writing credit with DC: a Luke Fox story in the Gotham-focused anthology comic, Batman: Urban Legends #4. While Luke’s brother Tim “Jace” Fox has been grabbing headlines of late as “The Next Batman,” Camrus used his space in the Urban Legends collection to explore Luke’s own history and dynamics with his once-estranged brother, all while reinforcing what Luke brings to the table as a hero in his own right.

As actors, they're phenomenal. But also, just as humans, they are so open and so giving of themselves. When we're working together, it's easy.

It's just weird that Batman is all over literally every other medium except live-action TV. I guess DC/WB thinks whichever big budget movie version is a better investment? Interesting that the same producers from Batwoman are developing this -- disproving the lie from anti-fans that DC is somehow unhappy with the show. So this is not a spinoff? Assuming that this actually makes it to series, it'll be weird to have two shows based in Gotham, but not related. In any case, the premise sounds very on-brand for CW.

Getting a chance to see yourself when you don’t normally get [that] chance? That’s the part I’m referring to too. That’s a part of the healing, as well.

The write up says it's not a spin off of Batwoman. That doesn't mean it isn't on the same Earth. My guess is that Batwoman will be renewed for a fourth & final season that will air next Fall, & then replaced with this the following winter. I doubt CW will have two Batman related shows on at the same time. I've been thinking CW/WB/DC had to be thinking about a replacement for Batwoman. Something, anything, better than Batwoman.

A lot of the second half has to do with Ryan's journey with her family and trying to save her brother from himself, who he's obviously been ... He's become our Joker, really.
