The CW’s “Batwoman” pilot has cast a trio of lead roles to star opposite Ruby Rose’s title character, including one character Batman fans might recognize.
Camrus Johnson will play Luke Fox, the son of Lucius Fox, the head of Wayne Enterprises’s R&D division and the one who designed many of the gadgets that Batman used. Lucius was played by Morgan Freeman in Christopher Nolan’s “Dark Knight” trilogy. Chris Chalk plays a younger version of him in Fox’s “Gotham.”
Johnson’s Fox is described as a Dark Knight loyalist who works to keep Wayne Tower secure in Bruce Wayne’s absence. While Luke considers himself the guardian of all things Batman — specifically his symbol — he also recognizes the city’s need for a new hero.
