Yesterday brought the surprising announcement that Batwoman star Ruby Rose has decided to part ways with the CW series ahead of its recently renewed second season. The search is now on to find another LGBTQ actress to don the cape and cowl, and it doesn't look like Warner Bros. TV will have to look very far for a suitable replacement!
Soon after the news broke, WWE Superstar and former MMA fighter Sonya Deville (real name Daria Berenato) took to Twitter to express interest in the role, asking The CW and showrunner Greg Berlanti to give her a "shot at playing Batwoman."
Deville is the first openly gay female wrestler in WWE, and although she has primarily competed as part of the Fire and Desire tag-team with Mandy Rose, she recently "turned heel" and has been making waves as a singles star.
As far as we know, Sonya doesn't have any acting experience, but she certainly looks the part, and has been given an opportunity to cut some very impressive promos of late.
What do you guys think? Could you see Sonya Deville as Gotham's new Caped Crusader? Drop us a comment in the usual place.
