Ruby Rose, ki v The CW-jevi seriji Batwoman igra glavni lik Kate Kane (Batwoman), je naznanila, da se poslavlja pred 2. sezono serije, ki je že potrjena in prihaja v letu 2021. 1. sezona pa se je zaključila z 20. epizodo, saj jo je skrajšala epidemija koronavirusa COVID-19.
Ruby Rose ne bo več Batwoman
razlog za odhod ni znan, saj nista, ne Ruby Rose, ne Warner Bros. v svoji izjavi pojasnila, zakaj je prišlo do razhoda. Rose je lani septembra prestala nujno operacijo zaradi hernije diska, kar bi lahko bil razlog za njen odhod, a kot poroča Variety, ki se sklicuje na dobro obveščene vire, njen odhod ni povezan z zdravjem ali poškodbo. V izjavi za javnost je Rose povedala
I have made the very difficult decision to not return to Batwoman next season. This was not a decision I made lightly as I have the utmost respect for the cast, crew and everyone involved with the show in both Vancouver and in Los Angeles. I am beyond appreciative to Greg Berlanti, Sarah Schechter and Caroline Dries for not only giving me this incredible opportunity, but for welcoming me into the DC universe they have so beautifully created. Thank you Peter Roth and Mark Pedowitz and the teams at Warner Bros. and The CW who put so much into the show and always believed in me. Thank you to everyone who made season one a success — I am truly grateful.
1. sezona serije Batwoman krajša zaradi koronavirusa
Tako kot marsikatera serija letos, je tudi serijo Batwoman zaradi epidemije koronavirusa COVID-19 doletelo krajšanje. Namesto 22-ih delov, ki so bili planirani, se je 1. sezona končala ta teden z 20. epizodo. 1. sezona serije Batwoman je v starostni skupini 18-49 let z vključenim sedemdnevnim zamikom dosegala rating 0.5. Tako se je uvrstila na tretje mesto med The CW serijami, za serijo The Flash in zadnjo sezono serije Arrow.
Studio že išče novo Batwoman
V skupni izjavi so Warner Bros. TV, CW in Berlanti Productions povedali
Warner Bros. Television, The CW and Berlanti Productions thank Ruby for her contributions to the success of our first season and wish her all the best. The studio and network are firmly committed to Batwoman’s second season and long-term future, and we — along with the show’s talented creative team — look forward to sharing its new direction, including the casting of a new lead actress and member of the LGBTQ community, in the coming months.
