<p>The Australian actress, 34, was cast as the first openly gay superhero to lead a major TV show in 2018 and the first season aired last year.</p>
<p>A second instalment of Batwoman has already been given the green light by network The CW – but it will not feature Rose.</p>
<p>She said in a statement: <i>“I have made the very difficult decision to not return to Batwoman next season.</i></p>
<p><i>“This was not a decision I made lightly as I have the utmost respect for the cast, crew and everyone involved with the show in both Vancouver and in Los Angeles.”</i></p>
<p>Rose, who is openly gay and also known for starring in Netflix series Orange Is The New Black and action film The Meg, thanked the cast and crew of Batwoman, adding: “<i>Thank you to everyone who made season one a success – I am truly grateful.”</i></p>
<p>In a joint statement, The CW, Warner Bros Television and Berlanti Productions said they were “<i>firmly committed”</i> to Batwoman, confirming they would re-cast the role with another member of the LGBTQ community.</p>
<p>They said: <i>“The studio and network are firmly committed to Batwoman’s second season and long-term future, and we — along with the show’s talented creative team — look forward to sharing its new direction, including the casting of a new lead actress and member of the LGBTQ community, in the coming months.”</i></p>
<p>Batwoman follows Kate Kane on her journey to become Gotham City’s new symbol of hope.</p>
<p>Speaking shortly after being cast, Rose said she was<i> “thrilled and honoured” </i>and <i>“an emotional wreck”</i> over the news, adding that as a young, gay person, she never felt represented on TV.</p>
<p>Batwoman airs on E4.</p>
