Batwoman fans are still reeling from last night's announcement that star Ruby Rose will not be reprising the lead role of Kate Kane for the show's upcoming second season, and some surprising new details on what exactly led to the actress hanging up the cape and cowl have now emerged.
The statements released at the time seemed to suggest that it was Rose's choice to part ways with the show, but if a new report from TV Line is accurate, it sounds like it was actually a mutual decision... at best!
Apparently, Rose has been unhappy for quite some time, and never really got used to the long hours required of her to lead a major TV series. It's also said that she did not acclimate well to life in Vancouver, where the show if primarily filmed.
“It wasn’t 100-percent her decision,” reveals the site's source. “It was a breakup. She wasn’t happy working on the show, and did that make her fun to work with? No. So everyone decided it would be in the best interests of the show, and for all concerned, if they parted ways. It just wasn’t a good fit.”
Of course, we won't know the full story until Rose decides to share her side. In the meantime, speculation is bound to run rampant.
