Batwoman features Ruby Rose, an LGBTQ actor who was formerly on Orange is the New Black, as Kate Kane—the new dark knight vigilante.

Kate is the daughter of the Crows Private Security, the militia-like security organization tasked with keeping the city of Gotham and its inhabitants safe since Batman’s unexplained disappearance three years earlier.

When a gang threatens Kate’s father and the Crows and a friend goes missing, she heads over to Wayne Enterprises. There, she finds her path and destiny…but not before she gets Batman’s suit tailored appropriately.

Kate Kane: “I need you to fix his suit.”

Luke Fox: “The suit is literal perfection.”

Kate Kane: “It will be. When it fits a woman.”

Priorities, priorities…and Kate’s (Ruby’s) line is priceless and seems to be setting the tone for the new show.
