"The Bat is out of the bag": Ruby Rose speaks out for the first time after being cast as CW's 'Batwoman'

As for Rose's introduction as the black-clad DC character, it's being reported that CW is planning a debut in the annual Arrowverse crossover in December.

In Ruby Rose's own words, "the bat is out of the bag". Reports surfaced earlier, confirming that the ever-expanding and inclusive Arroverse at CW has found their Batwoman in none other than the 32-year-old Australian actress, who is also known for appearances in 'Orange is the New Black,' 'xXx: Return of Xander Cage,' and 'John Wick: Chapter 2.' 

Following the official nod from the network, the news has certainly sparked a wave of emotions not just for fans but also for Rose, who has since taken to social media to share her excitement with her million-plus followers. "I am beyond thrilled and honored. I’m also an emotional wreck... because this is a childhood dream," the actress wrote alongside a collage of her photo and a still of the iconic DC character on her official Instagram account. Indeed the casting of Rose, who came out at the age of 12, as the lesbian Gotham vigilante marks a huge step in the direction of diversification. And looks like Rose herself is pretty touched.
