Fired ‘Batwoman’ Actress Claims Mistreatment On Set. Colleagues Say SHE Was The Hostile One.

Ruby Rose, who played Kate Kane in the CW’s “Batwoman” TV Show, claimed last week that she left the show in 2020 because of terrible working conditions.

Rose claimed that she was injured on set and forced to return to work after breaking her neck and ribs while playing her character. She also made numerous allegations against men on set, claiming they abused women.

But other former cast and crew members have since come forward to dispute her allegations, saying she didn’t choose to leave the show but that she was essentially fired after multiple people complained about her on-set behavior, Yahoo reported.

Actor Dougray Scott, who played Rose’s father during and after Rose was a cast member, specifically disputed the actress’ allegations against him.

WBTV released its own statement regarding Rose’s behavior.

“Despite the revisionist history that Ruby Rose is now sharing online aimed at the producers, the cast and crew, the network, and the Studio,” the studio said, adding that “the truth is that Warner Bros. Television had decided not to exercise its option to engage Ruby for Season 2 of Batwoman based on multiple complaints about workplace behavior that were extensively reviewed and handled privately out of respect for all concerned.”

Another cast member, Camrus Johnson, also disputed Rose’s claims about how she was treated on set.

“But yea fam, she was fired,” said Johnson, who plays Luke Fox on the series. “And it is VERY hard to be fired when you’re the lead. Imagine
