It looks like one Arrowverse star will be missing out on this year's San Diego Comic-Con. Ruby Rose has just confirmed that she will not be able to attend the event because she is too busy working on her new CW series Batwoman.
Rose posted a heartfelt message on her official Instagram account explaining that she is unhappy about having to cancel her appearance at SDCC 2019. Watch the video below.
"I come with bad news, sad news. I, unfortunately, will not be able to make it to Comic-Con this year, and it is devastating," Rose said. "I have wanted to go to Comic-Con for a million years and never did I think that I would be invited as a guest and speaking on two incredible panels, let alone have my face plastered everywhere - Hotel keys, the side of a hotel, in an elevator, my face is literally everywhere, but I'm not gonna be there which stinks a lot."
So what exactly led to Rose having to miss out on SDCC? The Meg star revealed that she needs to continue working on Batwoman although she did try to find a way to make it to Comic-Con.
"Just know that we tried everything that we could humanly to be there. It wasn't until really now that we realized there wasn't any other way to finish this ambitious episode we're doing and create this amazing show that really is special," Rose said. "And we want you to love it and be proud of it and be entertained and to laugh and to cry and to be empowered. And that means that in this particular instance, I gotta work and bring Kate Kane/Batwoman to the screen and not Ruby to a panel."
Rose was expected to be present at the Batwoman panel and one other panel at SDCC on Saturday.
Batwoman has not yet been given an official release date. However, the series is expected to air on The CW later this year.
