The Batwoman TV series is going to The CW, which will present to Bruce Wayne's cousin, Kate Kane, to the Arrowverse. Caroline Dries (The Vampire Diaries) will fill in as the essayist and will official produce, alongside Greg Berlanti, Sarah Schechter, and Geoff Johns.

Marcos Siega coordinated the pilot. He brings a tremendous CV from executive/maker TV keeps running on Dexter, The Following and The Vampire Diaries, most as of late with work on the pilot scene of The Passage, just as God Friended Me, You, Time After Time and Blindspot. Siega supplanted David Nutter as executive, the acclaimed little screen chief of notable Game of Thrones scenes, just as Arrow, The Flash, Smallville, Roswell, The X-Files and some more. While Nutter surrendered his job for individual reasons, he will remain a credited EP on the Batwoman pilot.

Obviously, the CW authoritatively requested Batwoman to series after the pilot came in, and to commend, they uncovered our first take a gander at film from the show...

Batwoman Story
Here's the official synopsis for the Batwoman TV series:

Kate Kane (Ruby Rose) never planned to be Gotham’s new vigilante. Three years after Batman mysteriously disappeared, Gotham is a city in despair. Without the Caped Crusader, the Gotham City Police Department was overrun and outgunned by criminal gangs. Enter Jacob Kane (Dougray Scott) and his military-grade Crows Private Security, which now protects the city with omnipresent firepower and militia. Years before, Jacob’s first wife and daughter were killed in the crossfire of Gotham crime. He sent his only surviving daughter, Kate Kane, away from Gotham for her safety. After a dishonorable discharge from military school and years of brutal survival training, Kate returns home when the Alice in Wonderland gang targets her father and his security firm, by kidnapping his best Crow officer Sophie Moore (Meagan Tandy). Although remarried to wealthy socialite Catherine Hamilton-Kane (Elizabeth Anweis), who bankrolls the Crows, Jacob is still struggling with the family he lost, while keeping Kate –– the daughter he still has –– at a distance. But Kate is a woman who’s done asking for permission. In order to help her family and her city, she’ll have to become the one thing her father loathes –– a dark knight vigilante. With the help of her compassionate stepsister, Mary (Nicole Kang), and the crafty Luke Fox (Camrus Johnson), the son of Wayne Enterprises’ tech guru Lucius Fox, Kate Kane continues the legacy of her missing cousin, Bruce Wayne, as Batwoman. Still holding a flame for her ex-girlfriend, Sophie, Kate uses everything in her power to combat the dark machinations of the psychotic Alice (Rachel Skarsten), who’s always somewhere slipping between sane and insane. Armed with a passion for social justice and a flair for speaking her mind, Kate soars through the shadowed streets of Gotham as Batwoman. But don’t call her a hero yet. In a city desperate for a savior, she must first overcome her own demons before embracing the call to be Gotham’s symbol of hope.

And we got this "first look" at Kate Kane planning some tweaks to the Batman suit...



Batwoman Cast
Ruby Rose (Orange is the New Black, John Wick: Chapter 2) was introduced as Kate Kane/Batwoman in the Elseworlds crossover, before launching into her own Batwoman TV show in 2019.

Rachel Skarsten, who previously played Dinah Lance (Black Canary) in the short-lived 2002 Birds of Prey series, has been cast as main villain Alice. "If Batwoman had a Joker, it would be Alice, the leader of her Lewis Carroll–inspired Wonderland Gang," her character description reads. "Swinging unpredictably between maniacal and charming, Alice has made it her mission to undermine Gotham’s sense of security."

Dougray Scott is set to play Jacob Kane, the father of Kate/Batwoman; a role that’s being referred to as the male lead in the series, as trades such as Deadline report. Jacob is depicted as a former military colonel who has contempt for vigilantes as he attempts to tackle the crime of Gotham with his private security firm, The Crows. However, in the ultimate irony, he’s unaware that his own daughter has become the very thing he reviles, a vigilante.

The character of Jacob, a fairly recent addition to the canon, was introduced in DC’s Detective Comics #854, dated August 2009. If his television trajectory matches the comics, then the adversarial relationship he has with vigilantes, specifically (his daughter,) Batwoman, is destined to become a partnership, since he is known for utilizing his connections and resources to help in her crimefighting endeavors. 

The veteran Scottish actor, Scott, was recently seen on Crackle's Snatch series, miniseries The Woman in White, Full Circle and Fear the Walking Dead. However, he’s best known from films such as Mission: Impossible II, My Week with Marilyn, Ever After: A Cinderella Story, Hitman and a TV run on Desperate Housewives. However, he’s also the Pete Best of the X-Men films, since he was originally cast to play Wolverine in Bryan Singer’s 2000 film until injuries sustained while filming the aforementioned M:I-2 prevented him from taking the role, which eventually went to a then-unknown Australian actor named Hugh Jackman.

Meagan Tandy (Teen Wolf) is playing Sophie Moore, described as "After graduating from military academy, Sophie rose through the ranks to become a high-level private security agent and one of Gotham’s staunchest protectors. Despite her bite and regimented outlook, Sophie has a soft side, illuminated by Kate Kane’s return."

Camrus Johnson (Luke Cage) is Luke Fox, "A Dark Knight loyalist and son of Wayne’s R&D director Lucius Fox, Luke works to keep Wayne Tower secure in his boss’s absence. While Luke considers himself the guardian of all things Batman — specifically his symbol — he also recognizes the city’s need for a new hero." DC Comics fans will recognize Luke Fox as the character known as Batwing.

Nicole Kang (You) will play Mary Hamilton. "Excitable, talkative, and an influencer-in-the-making, Mary is Kate Kane’s step-sister and polar opposite. But what Mary lacks in a filter, she makes up for with her compassion for Gotham’s underserved communities, proving she has more in common with Kate than she thinks."
