Ruby Rose reveals she’s open to reprising the role of Kate Kane on Batwoman. First joining the Arrowverse as part of the Elseworlds crossover in 2018, Kate was spun off into her own television series with Rose as the lead. However, after season 1, Rose announced she was exiting the superhero adaptation. The actress would later explain that an on-set injury, which required surgery, contributed to her decision.

Nonetheless, Batwoman season 2 has appeared to leave the door open for a guest appearance by Rose. After initially suggesting Kate had died in an off-screen plane crash, with Ryan Wilder stepping in as the new Batwoman, the series has been gradually revealing that Kate might have actually survived. In new remarks, Rose says she’s on board to reprise her role on the Arrowverse show.

Speaking with Comic Book Movie to promote her new film SARS: Red Notice, Rose shed some light on whether she’d be open to playing Kate again on Batwoman. Rose notes she doesn’t think it would serve the story to focus too much on Kate and draw attention from Ryan. In her comments, which you can read below, she also offers praise for new Batwoman lead Javicia Leslie and says that the show is handling Kate’s absence beautifully.

I mean, I’m obviously moving on to other roles as I think I’ve done about three films since. I would totally do it. I don’t think it would serve the story because I think building the new Batwoman is more important than going back too far into Kate Kane, but of course I would. I would absolutely do whatever they wanted as far as that [Laughs]. I haven’t watched the whole thing, but I’ve watched a couple of episodes, and I think how they’re handling it is beautiful. I think it’s her time to shine.

Rose’s remarks speak to the careful balance that Batwoman season 2 has had to strike. On one hand, the series has done a strong job establishing Leslie’s portrayal of Ryan and zeroing in on the way the protagonist differs from her predecessor. But, on the other hand, it has also acknowledged Kate’s situation weighs heavily on those she was closest to. In a roundabout way, Rose’s exit has helped to better define a villain like Alice. It has also provided more of an arc to other characters who had previously struggled to find their footing on the show. While Batwoman’s primary goal should continue to be fleshing out Ryan by highlighting her past relationships and vulnerabilities, the mystery surrounding Kate’s vanishing has helped to give the plot an added amount of forward momentum.

If, as Batwoman has suggested so far, Kate is still alive and being held captive by Safiyah, it’s hard to imagine the storyline being resolved without an on-screen appearance by Rose. The move could help bring a sense of closure to those in Kate’s orbit, along with viewers who feel the character deserves a proper farewell. It’s too early to know whether the show intends to follow through on what it has teased so far in Batwoman season 2. But, if it does, it’s good to know Rose is willing to reprise her role as Kate Kane.
