>An openly lesbian ex-soldier and the cousin of Bruce Wayne, Kate returns to Gotham City after being discharged from the military for coming out of the closet, and finds a new purpose in defending a city on the edge of chaos following Batman's mysterious disappearance three years prior. Armed with a passion for social justice and flair for speaking her mind, Kate soars onto the streets as Batwoman, but in a city desperate for a savior, she must overcome her own demons before embracing the call to be Gotham's symbol of hope.
>The psychotic leader of the Lewis Carroll–inspired Wonderland Gang. Swinging unpredictably between maniacal and charming, Alice has made it her mission to undermine Gotham’s sense of security, and holds a secret connection to Batwoman's past.
>Kate's closeted former lover and a high-ranking private security agent and one of Gotham’s fiercest protectors. Feisty, charming and with incredible fighting abilities and a softer side beneath her regimented exterior.
>The son of Wayne Enterprises' R&D director Lucius Fox, the man who provided Batman with his equipment for years. In the Dark Knight's absence, he is the one keeping the long-abandoned Wayne Tower secure. Brilliant with technology, but lacking in social skills, Luke considers himself the guardian of Batman's legacy and symbol, but soon begins to understand Gotham City’s need for a new hero, and finds one in Kate Kane.
>Kate Kane's excitable, talkative and scrappy stepsister. An influencer-in-the-making, Mary carries a lovely and heavy demeanor, which makes it easy to view her as an airheaded amateur. But what she 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. And like her sister, Mary will have a secret life of her own in Gotham City.
>Kate's extremely tough, political and emotionless father, who is haunted by the death of his wife and one of his daughters years prior. A former military Colonel with a grudge against Batman, Jacob now commands Gotham’s elite private security firm The Crows, and has made it his mission to protect his city better than the Dark Knight ever could. But it’s only a matter of time before his unwavering disdain for vigilantes puts him at odds with Gotham’s new caped crusader, who also happens to be his own daughter.
>Kate's knowledgeable, motivated and ambitious stepmother. Catherine made her fortune as a savvy, bullheaded defense contractor, even supplying weapons for her husband's paramilitary activities. One of Gotham’s most powerful residents, Catherine effortlessly pulls the strings of the elite to advance her frequently less-than-legal enterprises. For her, it’s a matter of the bottom line: Batwoman is bad for business.
This guy was supposed to be Wolverine but got replaced by Jackman at the last minute because he was injured. He was also supposed to be Bond but Daniel Craig got it instead. Feel bad for him, his career has not been great since.

Brody Edwards
>Kate returns to Gotham City after being discharged from the military for coming out of the closet Didn't the military end that policy like 10 years ago? >Armed with a passion for social justice and flair for speaking her mind Wait what? If there's one consistent theme with the Bat-"family" (whether that's Wayne, one of the Batgirls, one of the Robins, Nightwing, Beyond, etc.) it's that they're not particularly talkative or media friendly. They sneak around at night and scare the shit out of criminals, that's their thing.
Luis Bailey
It's going to have the same writers from the other CW capeshit, so it's going to be horrible with a sprinkle of cape action that we want. I hate those writers so goddamn much
Camden Richardson
I thought he got replaced cause he bet hard on M:I2 and thought he could ride Cruise to full on stardom.
Jace White
Eventually, sure.
Eli Carter
He had high hopes for M:I2, but he really was injured, and production also ran over schedule.
Jaxon Parker
Will only watch for Catwoman/Batwoman scissoring action.
Adam Wright
>tfw read the OP as Buttwoman
Zachary Smith
>after being discharged from the military for coming out of the closet This hasn't been a thing in forever.

Oh please tell me you pulled this from an article, I need a good laugh.
Joseph Flores
How can Ruby Rose be BatWOMAN if it identifies as nonbinary?
Jayden Scott
Has Ruby Rose ever gone into detail about her childhood sexual abuse? I'd love to hear about it.
>something heavy lands on the car >sticks head out of window and climbs halfway out of the far to see what it is >realize its batwoman >screams >gets pulled out of window never to be seen again >other guy runs and gets batgrappled >yanked with the 400lbs of force into windshield >3rd guy tip toes up the stares like a cartoon to escape >throws batarang with such accuracy that it not only hits him so hard he does a front flip, but also hits the wall and ricochets back to Batwomans hand
Jesus Christ everything about this is fucking stupid. I love it.
I thought the CW only hires hotties who can barely act?
Juan Garcia
>Armed with a passion for social justice hope they don't plan on ending the first season on a cliffhanger
John Sanchez
It's a CW DC show. Of course it looks like shit.
Jordan Sanders
>getting a 2nd season lol no
Zachary Perry
>An openly lesbian ex-soldier and the cousin of Bruce Wayne Jesus... Even being the cousin of fuckin' Batman comes second to being gay. Sexuality is my only identity.. The only important part of my entire life.. Is everyone retarded? It seems this shit is just getting worse and worse.
Adrian King
>Brilliant with technology, but lacking in social skills We need the Felicity archetype. Half of the cast will be gay before the end of Season 1. An inordinate amount of time will be spent talking about how influencing is a total value-add for society and isn't a symptom of civilization in terminal decline. So long as they don't shittalk Batman like they did Superman on Supergirl, I'll give it a shot.
Robert Cox
Blackdirtying
Joseph Long
I don't think her first appearance did much to build hype. But I am curious to check it out to see what level of cringe is achieved.
Jeremiah Wilson
she used to be on Reign, just some lateral casting on CW's part, they're good at that
Liam Cruz
>Blonde white girl is evil Such a tired trope.
Cooper Moore
Kino.
Noah Nguyen
Imagine how much pusy she gets
Angel Morgan
>So long as they don't shittalk Batman like they did Superman on Supergirl
Never happened.
Carter Richardson
not bad at all
Ian Cooper
>a bunch of whores and a nigger and an emotionally unavailable white guy in a father figure
Why does this cast sound like every coalburner's life story?
>An openly lesbian ex-soldier and the cousin of Bruce Wayne, Kate returns to Gotham City after being discharged from the military for coming out of the closet
I didnt know it was a comedy? Also
>having long majestic colored hair >when your a vigilante fighting men who will grab said hair to try and kill you >nobody behind the scenes thought about this or brought it up
I just realized there's going to be more crossovers with the other CW shows. More characters I don't know or care about will show up.
John Rivera
Lol so her dad is the mean old white man who just doesnt understand her progressivness. This show is going to be a trainwreck.
Easton Moore
You forgot
>4. Virtue signaling/identity politics
Logan Garcia
Believe it or not that thing in particular is addressed. It's a big flowing wig so that the general public doesn't notice Kate is short haired IRL, and it comes off easy so if anybody does grab for it in a fight they immediately get an unpleasant surprise.
Adam Adams
Le evil white man who doesnt show emotions and is against the innocent progressive pink haired protaganist. This sounds like it will definitely not be a trainwreck
