Is Javicia Hot?




33 y/o God Friended Me co-star, Javicia Leslie has been cast as the new Batwoman..and she's a woman of COLOUR!!

She will replace Ruby Rose and will play an entirely new character as Ryan Wilder as she makes her debut in the iconic cape and cowl when it returns next January

Warner Brothers and Berlanti Productions didn't take too long to find their lead as Leslie is coming off of a 2 season run on the series before it ended.

She said "I am extremely proud ot be the first Black Actress to play the iconic role of Batwoman on televison and as a bisexual woman. I am honoured to join this groundbreaking show which has been such a trailblazer for the LGBTQ+ community"

The role of the character is nothing like Kate Kane as she spent years as a drug runner an dodged the GCPD and masking her pain with bad habits. She now lives in her van with her plant and who would steal milk for an alley cat and kill anyone with her bare hands. She's described as a dangerous fighter and highly skilled and undisciplined.

Lol. The CW has been getting savagely called out for forcing Candace Patton to wear a wig for five seasons. So what do they do? Put another black woman in a wig. I wonder if theyll keep the red wig or allow the actress to use her natural hair when not suited up?

I don't understand why they didn't just recast Kate Kane. Making a totally new character is stupid. the entire show is built around people close to Kate Kane. the main villain is her sister. the side characters are other people around her, her friends and family. now she just leaves and a stranger steps in. it makes no sense. and the most important thing is that Kate Kane is fucking Batwoman. this is like if in Gotham they had made someone else become Batman instead of Bruce

the only way this can be salvaged is if in season 3, they replace this new lady with Kate Kane returning but as a different actress but act like it's the same woman from season 1

Batwoman is a totally different character from Batman (his cousin), but now I'm assuming her relation to him will change.

nerds are mad cause of the reasons in my post, not cause she's black. imagine if in the MCU they made a person who doesn't even exist in the comics become the new Captain America. that's what is going on here. this Ryan person the actress will play is made up by the show. she has never been Batwoman in the comics. she doesn't even exist in the comics. it might as well not be called Batwoman anymore

Idk I'm curious to see how they do this. I felt like the watchable parts of the show in the first season was everything but Kate, so maybe this new character and actress would work better.

Batwoman has existed in multiple forms in the comics since the 40's or 50's. the version this show is supposed to be about, is Bruce Wayne's cousin. but now that character left the show and this new lady is taking over.

I can't help but wonder if Ruby Rose is available to do the odd cameo or something.

Yeah I don't know why they didn't just recast Kate when like every character was specific to Kate - her dad, her twin sister, her step sister and step mom, her ex girlfriend, and the butler of her real estate company. I don't know how they're gonna keep all those characters together without the central one.

Could be the plan.

May be some SAG issues with casting a lookalike too soon. Thanks, Crispin Glover!

this is a little different. its true that they keep turning comic book redheads into black people for some reason. but this is not that exactly this time. this woman isn't Kate Kane. she's someone else. a totally new character.

to be honest I think I wish she WAS Kate. they could have someone on the show say "this lady is Kate Kane from another universe where she is black. and she just happened to come to our universe right when our Kate left Gotham"

at least it would still be Kate Kane then

bisexual

On one hand, I'm glad to be able to pretend I have a chance of tapping that. She's hotter than white Batwoman. On the other hand, I'm preemptively sad for her since she's going to be fired from playing Batwoman the moment she gets a boyfriend.

I'm pretty sure comic fans are more accepting than that. The Fantastic 4 movie took similar liberties with the characters, and it was well received.

What, seriously? It's Patience Phillips all over again.

I hope she at least gets a better reception than Halle Berry did.

Also, I kinda like your idea of an alternate universe where the superheroes are black (and I'm guessing black heroes/supporting characters are white?). I'd be awesome if the DC Melanin Universe was a canon thing.

I cant wait for the inevitable race baiting dialogue they will force into the script.

sort of like this -

alfred: the penguin stole the artifact!
batgirl: its not the first time a white male appropriates what is not his

I don't think the CW shows are particularly concerned about being faithful adaptations of the comics.

yes but this is way off the map. they usually AT LEAST have the same character. even if they sometimes make them different than in the comics. this is a new situation. there has never been a comic book tv show named after an existing character where the person under the mask in the show is a person who doesn't exist in the comics.

John Diggle was created for the show wasn't he? He became the Green Arrow for a brief period. He's also gonna be the Green Lantern in this universe.

There insistence on not recasting, and thus rendering the entire first season useless, is a mind-numbingly stupid decision.
