[QUOTE=Caivu;4995114]If there was any validity to it, they'd find the actual posting and use that. I know where it's supposedly from, and none of them have mentioned it. Or they could talk to literally anyone involved in the casting process. But no, they haven't done that. Why not?
It's prime clickbait. Speculative and gets the fanbase riled up.[/QUOTE]
Did you not see the reddit thread? The actual posting is posted on the thread. It's the OP

Yes, I did see it. A screenshot of text is sooooo hard to fake, after all. :p
Seriously, though. There's no info about what site it's from, and the site it supposedly [I]is[/I] from isn't publicly accessible. Suspicious, that.

Deadline, TV Line and The Hollywood Reporter are also reporting it. Kate Kane is out and and there will be a new woman as Batwoman.

And...I'm done with the Arrowverse (if this is true)! RR doesn't define Kate Kane, but Kate Kane IS Batwoman. Why can't they just recast.

Yeh I totally agree, if this is true then this is a horrible idea. Kate Kane is Batwoman, just recast her. Im not interested in a new character taking up the cowl that belongs to Kate.
Someone who came up with this idea is just clearly stupid.
I really hope this is fake and Kate Kane will just be recast.
-
The most hilarious thing is they have the easiest out ever. With the whole "Hush/plastic surgery" thing they can literally have her "go under the knife" and be a new actress.
-
Yeah, the odds for [I]Batwoman[/I] making it to a third season are that much lower now.
-
I mean it would be not the first time a series changes actors between seasons without any comment on it.
If they really create a new character they add to their problems without any reason.
-
This might actually get me to start watching again. Not that I didn't like Rose, she was very good. But I got very tired of the whole show being only about the Kane family drama. A new character as BW will bring a whole new dynamic for the show. Unless it's another season of Alice, then I am gone.
-
Hadn’t gotten around to watching this show yet, but I had definitely intended to since Kate Kane is one of my favorite characters.
I’m not going to bother now. Changing the entire character because a mediocre actress left is a stupid idea.

Yeah, Arrowverse just gets worse (no rhyme intended). Stargirl is good, but I don't consider it Arrowverse being that it started as DC Universe series. Frankly, I think it's time to shop DC properties to other handlers. The CW shows have been mostly disappointing and way too political.

They're frequently the top rated shows on the CW as well as making up (at this point) about half their programming. Unless DC themselves decide to stop making them, they aren't going away any time soon.
Not to mention they are shopping around their properties to other handlers. HBO Max is getting a few new DC shows.

Aaaaand the show's officially dead.

[QUOTE=Immortal Weapon;4995021]So Ruby Rose isn't the only one getting replaced. So is Kate Kane according to a leak on reddit
[url]https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/batwoman-replace-kate-kane-ruby-roses-departure-1296951[/url]
Brand new character for the lead.[/QUOTE]
Yeah... Oh, sry. I actually meant no.
[QUOTE=j9ac9k;4995040]I bet it's two things:
- Their statement after Rose left was that it opened things up creatively. They might just like being able to create their own hero unbeholden to comic book lore and take her in whatever direction they want.
[/QUOTE]
Great, they can go make a new IP and hire ppl who bother to make Batwoman instead.

And not a single one of them has any clear source beyond the Reddit post. They're all also incorrectly referring to the new character as a lead, when she's never called that in the supposed casting call.
