Previous reports revealed that Leslie’s Ryan Wilder was an original creation. According to Screen Rant, the character was created “exclusively” for the Arrowverse.

Comparing Kate Kane and Ryan Wilder’s characters, the outlet reported the contrasting personalities of the two. Kane, described as highly intuitive, fought with precision while Ryan was said to be highly skilled and wildly undisciplined.

Executive producer Caroline Dries explained that “Batwoman” season 2 would showcase the different points of view of all characters. She also said that it would show what happened to Kane, Deadline reported.

Rose’s decision to let go of Kane’s character came as a shock to the public. TVLine spoke to some sources, who confirmed to them that the split from The CW was mutual.

An insider further revealed to the news outlet that the long hours demanded from Rose as a lead star in the superhero drama series had distressed her. Moreover, the life in Vancouver, the location where “Batwoman” shoots, was reportedly challenging for Rose.

Now that Kane is out, Wilder will take over, so don’t miss “Batwoman” season 2 on Jan. 17 at The CW.
