00:00Former Batwoman star Ruby Rose is saying they were fired from the CW series and has leveled a series of allegations about their on-set experience.
00:09In a series of Instagram stories shared on Wednesday, Rose claimed being forced off the show at the end of season one.
00:16Contrary to reports that it was the star's decision to leave.
00:19To my dear, dear fans, still asking if I will return to that awful show.
00:24I wouldn't return for any amount of money, nor if a gun were to my head, nor did I quit.
00:29I did not quit. They ruined Kate Kane and they destroyed Batwoman, not me.
00:34I followed orders and if I wanted to stay, I was going to have to sign my rights away.
00:38Any threats, any bullying tactics or blackmail would not make me stand down.
00:42Rose also said they were forced back to work just 10 days after a serious injury while filming a stunt for the show early in the first season.
00:50After undergoing surgery for two herniated discs, Rose alleges that Warner Brothers pushed the star to return quickly,
00:56quote, or the whole crew and cast would be fired and I'd let everyone down because Peter Roth said he wouldn't recast and I just lost the studio millions by getting injured on his set.
01:07Other claims included that Batwoman showrunner Caroline Dries pushed to complete filming on the first season at the onset of the pandemic.
01:14A crew member suffered third-degree burns and a production assistant was left quadriplegic after an onset accident.
01:21Rose addressed Dries, executive producers Greg Berlanti and Sarah Schechter and The CW writing,
01:26I will come for you so what happened to me never happens to another person again and so I can finally take back my life and the truth.
01:34Shame on you.
01:35Rose exited Batwoman at the end of its first season in a move that caught the show's fans by surprise.
01:40At the time, both Rose and the show's producers issued statements praising one another and noting the groundbreaking nature of the series.
