In 2021, Wallis made her surprise debut appearance as Ruby Rose’s character Kate Kane on Batwoman.
‘It’s a huge responsibility stepping into the shoes of a character that’s already been established and it’s a journey I’m looking forward to being a part of and hoping you guys do too,’ she said at the time.
‘Everyone’s made me feel so welcome and it’s amazing being back home with my DC family.’
During the first season of the show, Kate became the vigilante Batwoman in Gotham City, but the character ended the run of episodes missing, presumed dead, after a plane crash.
The second season saw Javicia Leslie be the first black actress to play Batwoman on screen after her character, Ryan Wilder, found the famous suit within the wreckage of the plane crash.
