Batwoman: Ruby Rose Reveals Horrifying Set Conditions, Slams WBTV Chief

Batwoman actress Ruby Rose has finally opened up about the horrifying working conditions that she had to face on the CW series, which was a part of the Arrowverse.

“Enough is enough,” Rose wrote on Instagram, calling out showrunner Caroline Dries and Bertalnti Proudctions’ Greg Berlanti and Sarah Schechter. “I’m going to tell the whole world what really happened on that set. [Former Warner Bros. Television Group Chairman] Peter Roth, you are first up. You are chapter one. not sure if you left after getting promoted to the highest position because you couldn’t stop making young women steam your pants, around your crotch while you were still wearing said pants or if you left after putting a private investigator on me who you fired as soon as the report didn’t fit your narrative. either way, when it comes to you, there’s already an army waiting for u.”

Ruby Rose also went on to share some videos from a doctor’s clinic showcasing the neck injury that she suffered while filming Batwoman. She also went on to point out her tumor and a rib injury, sharing a video from the neck surgery. She wrote: “To everyone who said I was too stiff on bawoman, imagine going back to work 10 days after this … 10 DAYS!!!!!! (or the whole crew and cast would be fired and I’d let everyone down because Peter Roth said he wouldn’t recast and i just lost the studio millions (by getting injured on his set) that is be the one who cost so many people their jobs.”

After this, Ruby Rose shared a video where she announced that she will not be present at the Comic-Con International in San Diego, 2019. She wrote, “Imagine having to take a pay cut to play a passion project and being so excited about Comic-Con and then being told they would not adjust the schedule so I could attend… but then saying ‘we won’t announce it, you have to,'” she wrote.

“So in closing, please to my dear, dear fans stop asking if I will return to that awful show, I wouldn’t return for any amount of money nor if a gun were to my head.. NOR DID I QUIT,” Rose continued. “I DO NOT QUIT, They ruined Kate Kane and they destroyed batwoman, not me. I followed orders, and if I wanted to stay i was going to have to sign my rights away[…] A crew member got 3rd degree burns over his whole body, and we were given no therapy after witnessing his skin fall off his face but I was the only one who sent him flowers and cards and then were told we had to do a sex scene without a minute to process, we lost 2 stunt doubles, I got cut in the face so close to my eye in a stunt I could have been blind. a woman was left quadriplegic and they tried to blame it on her being on her phone, so much so CW didn’t even help her to start with because they needed to ‘investigate’ so she had to do a go fund me… she’s a PA, they work via phones. Her accident occurred because our show refused to shut down when everyone else did because of Covid.”

Rose revealed that when Batwoman finally shut down due to the pandemic, it wasn’t because of the aforementioned incident but because “the government pulled it.” She also revealed how her co-star Dougray Scott “hurt a female stunt double” which was a nightmare.

Ruby Rose announced her departure from Batwoman in May 2020. After a few days, she made her first public statement, writing: “Thank you to the cast, crew, producers and studio. It wasn’t an easy decision but those who know, know… I didn’t want to not acknowledge everyone involved and how big this was for TV and for our community. I have stayed silent because that’s my choice for now but know I adore you all. I’m sure next season will be amazing also. Xxx *hangs up cowl and cape.”
