The CW is developing a series about the DC superhero Batwoman that would debut in 2019.
News of the development comes after the network announced that the character would appear in four of the CW’s DC shows: “The Flash,” “Arrow,” “Legends of Tomorrow,” and “Supergirl.”
In the series, Kate Kane, armed with a passion for social justice and a 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.
In a city desperate for a savior, Kate must overcome her own demons before embracing the call to be Gotham’s symbol of hope.
