Batwoman Actress Shows Off New Batsuit

Batwoman’s Javicia Leslie reveals her new Supergirl costume in a stylish video clip. Batwoman is part of the Arrowverse of CW, featuring superhero shows from Supergirl to Legends of Tomorrow. Season 1 of Batwoman starred Ruby Rose as Kate Kane, who quickly became a fan favorite with Rose’s loving, sophisticated performance.

However, Batwoman heard a loud bang earlier this year when Rose announced she was leaving the game. In response, the supervisors decided to create a completely new character to take on the Batwoman costume. As a result, Ryan Wilder – described as a heavyweight drug addict – was born. CW later verified that Ryan will be disclosed by Leslie, earning the first Black actor to play Batwoman on TV.

Batwoman Actress Update

Leslie shared a video set via Twitter showing her new outfit. Leslie snapped several poses in front of the camera, before bursting in saying he was done. The videos show Leslie’s suit, with a red bat mark on her chest, red gauntlets, and a red cape inside.

While Ryan Wilder will be wearing Kate’s old costume in the first few seasons of season 2, he will officially launch his new Batwoman suit in episode 3. The costume has several features that were specially designed for Leslie’s character.

The new suit will be brighter than the previous one and will look much redder everywhere. For example, Ryan’s belt will have a red Bat symbol in the center, making it more visible. Although not shown in the preset video, Ryan will also be wearing a wig, as Kate Kane did. However, Ryan’s wig has curly hair that is highlighted in red. This costume update proves Ryan Wilder’s personality. To achieve that, it’s good to know that the Batwoman team understands that Ryan has his style and is ready to promote Leslie as the first Black Batwoman for CW.

The revival of Batwoman’s costume is not the only change made by the exhibitors in the series. Especially, while Kate Kane is noticed riding a motorcycle in season 1, Ryan will be drifting around Gotham with a brand new BMobile. So, it’s clear that Ryan is determined to get into the beloved CW show – and that Leslie looks very ready to turn Ryan Wilder into a Batwoman iconic character.
