Meagan Tandy (Teen Wolf, UnREAL), Camrus Johnson (Luke Cage) and Nicole Kang (Netflix's You) have joined the cast of The CW's Batwoman pilot per Deadline. Ruby Rose stars as the titular hero.
The DC pilot hails from Greg Berlanti's Berlanti Productions and Warner Bros. Television and will be penned by Caroline Dries (The Vampire Dairies). David Nutter (Game of Thrones, Arrow, The Flash) is attached to direct the pilot.
Armed with a passion for social justice and a flair for speaking her mind, Kate Kane (Ruby Rose) 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.
Camrus Johnson will play Luke Fox. A Dark Knight loyalist and son of Wayne's R&D director Lucius Fox, Luke works to keep Wayne Tower secure in his boss's absence. While Luke considers himself the guardian of all things Batman — specifically his symbol — he also recognizes the city's need for a new hero.
Nicole Kang will play Mary Hamilton. Excitable, talkative, and an influencer-in-the-making, Mary is Kate Kane's step-sister and polar opposite. But what Mary 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.
