The CW is planning to introduce a live-action take on Batwoman to The Arrowverse.

Arrow star Stephen Amell made the announcement at The CW’s upfront presentation this afternoon:

“We’re incredibly excited to announce that we’ll be doing another crossover event this fall on the CW, and we’ll be introducing a new character. For the very first time appearing, we’ll be fighting alongside Batwoman, which is terrific. The crossover is going to make it to air in December. I need to leave right now and start filming it.”

Kathy Kane was first introduced back in the '50s, but was re-imagined as "Kate" Kane for DC's New 52 many years later and has since gone on to become one of the highest-profile LGBTQ characters in comic book history.

Batwoman's introduction to the Arrowverse obviously paves the way for more members of the Bat-Family to put in an appearance, something which CW boss Mark Pedowitz alluded to with a follow up statement.

We are adding the city of Gotham into the Arrowverse,” he confirmed. “This will be another full-throttled, action-packed event.”
