Deadline reports that Meagan Tandy (Teen Wolf), Camrus Johnson (Luke Cage) and Nicole Kang (You) have joined The CW’s pilot Batwoman, which is expected to be part of the ongoing Arrowverse. The pilot will be produced by Greg Berlanti’s Berlanti Productions and Warner Bros. Television. It will be directed by David Nutter from a script by Caroline Dries.

The series will follow Ruby Rose as Kate Kane aka Batwoman, “an out lesbian and highly trained street fighter primed to snuff out the failing city’s criminal resurgence. But don’t call her a hero yet. In a city desperate for a savior, Kate must overcome her own demons before embracing the call to be Gotham’s symbol of hope.”

Tandy will play Sophie Moore, described as a military academy graduate who “rose through the ranks to become a high-level private security agent and one of Gotham’s staunchest protectors. Despite her bite and regimented outlook, Sophie has a soft side, illuminated by Kate Kane’s return.”

Johnson will play Luke Fox, a Batman loyalist and son of Wayne R&D director Lucius Fox. According to his character description, Luke “works to keep Wayne Tower secure in his boss’s absence. While Luke considers himself the guardian of all things Batman — specifically his symbol — he also recognizes the city’s need for a new hero.”

Finally, Kang plays Mary Hamilton, described as “excitable, talkative, and an influencer-in-the-making, Mary is Kate Kane’s step-sister and polar opposite. But what Mary lacks in a filter, she makes up for with her compassion for Gotham’s underserved communities, proving she has more in common with Kate than she thinks.”
