Quote The CW is developing a script for a Batwoman series for 2019, EW has learned. While there’s no casting news as of yet, the character will make her debut in this year’s DC crossover event, as Arrow star Stephen Amell announced in May. EW has also learned that the forthcoming crossover will include Arrow, The Flash, and Supergirl — but not DC’s Legends of Tomorrow.

Hurdyb1 Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 We will see. I have more faith here than I do in their movie division. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wild Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 Not encouraged by it being in the "Arrowverse." Good to see Legends doesn't have to sully itself with the crossover, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I'm curious how Supergirl fits as well... unless it takes place on her Earth where it's been implied that Batman exists. 8 hours ago, Jason said: Wait wait wait.

Brian Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 I heard about this on the radio this morning and it was funny hearing the DJs reaction. It went from being excited about a batwoman show to crickets when it was then mentioned the character would be a lesbian. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You see John Wick 2? She was the mute Assassin character he fought. She was also in Orange is the New Black and she will be in that shark movie The Meg. She's bisexual in real life and is also gender fluid I believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who would have been better? She's attractive, can act and can do action. Her being queer is a bonus. I can't think of anyone who would be better to be honest.

legend Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 I think she's a great casting choice. Even though I've stopped watching these shows, I might check it out to see how she does in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CastlevaniaNut18 Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 Reading the comments in these articles is so much fun. "I won't be letting my children watch this!" "Why do they have to put that garbage out there? We don't need a superhero's sexuality on display!" It's like these people forget about Batman+Catwoman, Superman+Lois Lane, Ironman+Pepper Potts, I could keep going... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 2 hours ago, Kal-El814 said: To say nothing of the fact that the initial marketing for Arrow seemed to basically be, “yo check out this guy’s abs.” Arrow opens with Oliver drunkenly hooking up with his girlfriend's sister on his father's yacht. Supergirl has Alex as a lesbian who nearly got gay married, and had Winn clearly getting frisky with an alien who seemed to want Klingon-grade rough sex before just nonchalantly dropping the alien girlfriend between seasons. Legends has Sara pursuing a lesbian romance and before that they were pushing her into Jack Harkness levels of seemingly being down to have sex with pretty much anything with a pulse. And I'm pretty sure you're supposed to conclude that Constantine and Gary are banging, and this is introduced not too long after having Sara and Constantine decide to ignore a mission partway through so that they can bang in a closet. And there's so many more examples I could use, Legends is basically a fuckfest, they just don't show you anything. I think Flash has been the tamest of the Arrowverse shows so far. So OBVIOUSLY it's this casting choice that's pushing things too far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wild Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 I will say I like the new Flash suit: The top of the head is kinda weird, but eyebrows down is pretty sick and more like the comics. Better than the frumpy leather they've had. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ALIEN-gunner Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 I don't care about her sexuality unless the show revolves around that to make it forced. But she's a bad choice. She can't act. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason is awesome. She got negative backlash because she wasn't enough of a lesbian enough to play this lesbian character... even tho she is a lesbian. People are terrible.
