Two months after Ruby Rose announced she was leaving The CW’s Batwoman after just one season, and one month since word leaked that the show wasn’t looking to recast the role of Kate Kane and would instead introduce an entirely new character to take over the lead of the show, Warner Bros. has announced their new hero: Javicia Leslie will play the new Batwoman, Ryan Wilder, when the show returns for its second season on The CW.
Batwoman Season 2 premieres on The CW in January 2021.
Ryan Wilder is about to become Batwoman.
She’s also nothing like Kate Kane, the woman who wore the Batsuit before her.
