While we know that The CW will introduce Batwoman during this December's Arrowverse crossover, it's now been confirmed that she's getting her own solo series in 2019. Caroline Dries (The Vampire Diaries) is writing the pilot's script and she will also executive produce the series alongside DC veteran Greg Berlanti. It's thought the a casting notice for the role of Kate Kane will be going out very soon.
That means we won't be getting any sort of reveal at Comic-Con this weekend and it will instead be around the fall that we get to see whoever is cast as Kate Kane suited up as the fan-favourite hero.
In an official logline for the show, it's said that "Batwoman revolves around Kate Kane, who, armed with a passion for social justice and flair for speaking her mind, soars onto the streets of Gotham as Batwoman, an out lesbian and highly trained street fighter primed to snuff out the failing city's criminal resurgence. But don't call her a hero yet: in a city desperate for a savior, Kate must overcome her own demons before embracing the call to be Gotham's symbol of hope."
That confirms Gotham City is coming to the Arrowverse but it is, of course, possible that the show will be set on a different Earth the same way Supergirl is. Regardless, Batwoman has a huge amount of potential and you can see why The CW is moving forward with the series despite already having so many other comic book adaptations on the air. Are you guys excited? Let us know your thoughts below.
