Today at the Upfront presentations in New York, Stephen Amell was delighted to share a tidbit about the next major Arrowverse crossover. That tidbit was a doosy! Apparently the next mega crossover event will introduce a new hero into the mix and she brings some MAJOR implications! Batwoman and along with her, Gotham is going to be introduced to the Arrowverse! Not much more than that is known right now but Supergirl fans might remember that Gotham has already been hinted at on Earth 38 and via the rich comic history, Batwoman and Maggie Sawyer were actually romantically linked. This could mean that the Batwoman saga might begin right here on Supergirl! Who will be tasked with the part and what she'll look like is now very much on the forefront of our thoughts!

We already started thinking about who could play the iconic part. Our original pick for Batgirl, Katherine McNamara could also take on the role of Kate Kane quite well in our opinion. She is already kicking but on Shadowhunters. It'd be great of schedules work out. Please, however, take this as just fun speculation, there is no evidence to suggest that its real. In fact, let us know who you'd like to see play the part!

"Whatever they do with her, I hope they keep her jewish like in the comics."

Me, too!
(Yes, I know Gal Gadot is Jewish, but Wonder Woman isn't...)

Third Chance Lindsey Morgan

#28 Earth-38 Deserves Batwoman — Skor 2018-05-19 19:41

I'm hoping Batwoman comes to Supergirl's Earth because Earth-1 is overflowing with heroes who routinely pop in and out of each other's shows and besides Mon-el dropping a thousand years in the past to help her out and Superman showing up once in a blue moon, Supergirl really doesn't have anyone to crossover with. I love Batgirl but the great chemistry they had in the comic was really between the college aged Barbara Gordon and the high school aged Kara. The CW Supergirl is really too old for that particular dynamic. The perky Supergirl and the much Darker Batwoman could have a very similar conflict as Superman and Batman do. Plus the Arrow has proven time and again they have no clue how to allow strong female characters to flourish. Plus, new love interest for Alex? Yes please!

Quoting KaraD:

Didn't we see Esmé Bianco is joining the show? I can't remember if she's coming at the end of season 3 or next season. She's a redhead...

Also, I don't know if she would be a good fit but I really liked Emily Rose in Haven.

Anyway, I'm sure the actress they choose will be perfect. They always make very good choices in the casting department with the exception, in my opinion, of the role of James. I really like Mehcad but I would have preferred another role for him on Supergirl.

I think Emily Rose would be a good choice as well.

Another person the CW would go with for Batwoman is actress #JoanneKelly best known to SyFy viewers along side Eddie McClintock in #Warehouse13

Quoting knightsabre7:

I wonder if Alex could turn into Batwoman. She was involved with Maggie after all, has the fighting skills, is about the right age, has access to tech, etc.

Sorry, but I do not see that working...and it would not make a lot of sense.

yup thumbs down to that

Looks like a good pick to me SUpergirl.tv. Right look (IMO) and if she has action and stage / film combat training in another recent show (never watched shadow hunters) then it would make a smoother transition for the show as opposed to training someone else up as thta does take a bit of time to make look good.
