Batwoman is back next week on the The CW and it looks like season 3 will waste no time in getting down to business. It’s previously been teased that a number of Bat-villains will be making their way to Gotham this season and now we have our first look at one of them.
The season premiere, “Mad As A Hatter,” unsurprisingly introduces the classic villain Mad Hatter, or at least a version of him. Here’s the full synopsis from the network:
SEASON PREMIERE – As Batwoman (Javicia Leslie) continues to keep the streets of Gotham safe, Batwing (Camrus Johnson) joins in on the action, but Luke quickly realizes he hasn’t quite mastered his suit. Meanwhile, as Alice (Rachel Skarsten) sits hopelessly imprisoned in Arkham, Sophie (Meagan Tandy) fully enjoys her freedom. When Ryan pays Alice a visit to ask about the bombshell she dropped – that Ryan’s birth mother is still alive – Ryan must decide if she should go down the rabbit hole of her past. As Mary (Nicole Kang) prepares to finally graduate from medical school, she feels the absence of her family more than ever. But when an Alice admirer stumbles upon one of the missing Bat Trophies, Gotham and the Bat Team get mixed up in the madness, culminating in a shockingly gruesome graduation… and an equally shocking new partnership. Also starring Robin Givens and Victoria Cartagena. Holly Dale directed the episode written by Caroline Dries (#301).
We get our first look at Mad Hatter, as well as teases of Ryan’s various team ups in these ten new stills from the episode:
Developed by Caroline Dries (The Vampire Diaries), Batwoman stars Javicia Leslie as Ryan Wilder/Batwoman. The series co-stars Dougray Scott, Meagan Tandy, Camrus Johnson, Nicole Kang, Christina Wolfe and Rachel Skarsten. Joining them in season three are Bridget Regan as Poison Ivy, Robin Givens as Jada Jet and Nick Creegan. Victoria Cartagena also returns to the DC Universe as Renee Montoya.
