Ruby Rose Latest News, Photos, and Videos

Ruby Rose has joined the cast of the upcoming film 1UP!

The former Batwoman actress is taking over the role from Elliot Page, who has stepped away from the project, THR reports.

Also joining the cast are The Kissing Booth 2‘s Taylor Zakhar Perez, Hari Nef and Nicholas Coombe.

Fans may have already guessed that Taylor, Hari and Nicholas were cast in the film as they have been seen in Instagram photos posted by Paris Berelc and director Kyle Newman.

The movie is the first from Buzzfeed Studios and Lionsgate’s partnership, and production began back in November in Toronto.

Here’s a synopsis: A female gamer named Vivian Lee (Berelc) quits her college eSports team rather than put up with sexism from her male counterparts. But with her scholarship on the line, she is forced to assemble a Varsity caliber, all-women’s team that can compete with the boys.

With the help of an enigmatic coach (Rose) who returns to the spotlight after her own GamerGate scandal, the young woman recruits an unlikely crew of unskilled misfits to kick some serious gamer butt.

WARNING! THIS POST CONTAINS SPOILERS!!

The second season of Batwoman premiered on Sunday night (January 17) and addressed one thing on everyone’s mind…

The season kicked off addressing what happened to Kate Kane, who was played by Ruby Rose in season one.

Kate was on a plane that had suffered a technical failure while flying over Gotham City and came crashing down. Though the plane crashed, Kate’s body has not been found, so she is now missing.

During the episode, Alice (Rachel Skarsten) received a paper airplane from a newspaper clipping about Kate’s disappearance, and on it, “Consider Us Even – Safiyah,” was written in red, hinting that Safiyah Sohail was responsible for the plane crash.

After Ruby Rose announced she was leaving the show, showrunner Caroline Dries confirmed that the character would not be killed off.

“We’ll never erase her. In fact, her disappearance will be one of the mysteries of Season 2. I don’t want to give away any of our surprises, but to all our devoted fans, please know that LGBTQ+ justice is at the very core of what Batwoman is and we have no intention of abandoning that,” she previously told TV Line last summer.

Ruby Rose is speaking out about the decision to part ways with Batwoman.

The 34-year-old actress shocked fans when she announced the news back in May, and she’s now opening up about it.

“I think what played a bigger part [in the decision], we got shut down early. We didn’t get to finish the first season, which is such a shame, especially for a first season show,” Ruby said on SiriusXM’s The Jess Cagle Show. “Um, and then we went into lockdown with COVID and thinking of in quarantine and locked down, there was a lot of thought and reflection and kind of everyone did it.”

“You know, we all kind of thought about where we’re at and, and, and so did, uh, Warner Brothers and Greg [Berlanti], and we were discussing the show and we had a conversation and, you know, I had a great time on Batwoman,” she continued. “I am so proud of what we achieved. We set out to achieve something pretty significant, you know, the first ever live action Batwoman and the first ever, you know, out gay superhero, her and Kate Kane. And I love that character and the whole experience, but we did have a discussion and we sort of mutually agreed that probably what was best for the show, um, at the time was they go in a different direction and I go in a different direction. It was tough cause it was sad cause we will love each other, but also it made sense for so many different reasons.”

Ruby add that she’s looking forward to season two and she still keeps in touch with the cast.

“And you know, I think at the end of the day, like, oh, I’m really excited to watch season two. I think the show is great,” she said. “I love the cast. I’m still in contact with everyone, but it was, it was a decision that we, we talked about, we discussed, we slept on. Um, but at the time with all that reflection, it just seemed like the right thing to do.”

Ruby Rose is super ecstatic for Javicia Leslie to be the new Batwoman!

The former star, who stepped away from the role, shared her excitement on Instagram.

“OMG!! This is amazing!! I am so glad Batwoman will be played by an amazing Black woman. ❤️ I want to congratulate Javicia Leslie on taking over the bat cape. You are walking into an amazing cast and crew. I can’t wait to watch season 2 you are going to be amazing !! ❤️,” Ruby captioned a photo of Javicia.

“For all of the little black girls dreaming to be a superhero one day… it’s possible!” Javicia wrote with an announcement on her own page.

Earlier in the day, it was revealed that Javicia would take on the new role of Ryan Wilder, who will become the new Batwoman.

Ruby Rose is speaking out for the first time since revealing she’s exiting Batwoman.

The 34-year-old star of the show shocked fans when she announced she was no longer going to be a part of the series.

Now, Ruby is thanking fans, cast and crew for their support and for tuning in.

“Thank you everyone for coming on this journey. If I mentioned everyone it would be 1000 tags.. but Thank you to the cast, crew, producers and studio. It wasn’t an easy decision but those who know, know,” Ruby captioned a video.

“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. Also @mysmarvel,” she continued.

If you missed it, these reasons were revealed for Ruby‘s exit from the CW show.

We now know the reason why Ruby Rose decided to leave Batwoman, the role she originated in season one of The CW drama.

“It wasn’t 100-percent her decision,” a source told TV Line. “It was a breakup. She wasn’t happy working on the show, and did that make her fun to work with? No. So everyone decided it would be in the best interests of the show, and for all concerned, if they parted ways. It just wasn’t a good fit.”

Apparently, Ruby didn’t like the “long hours demanded of a lead TV role” and didn’t enjoy living in Vancouver, Canada, where the show was filmed.

The show’s second season is set to debut in January 2021.
