This is surprisingly my 1st blog on season 3, and it just happens to be for the last couple episodes. Batwoman has been tough for me to find this season, and the 3 times I had prior. Once was inside a theatre for the scene in the 1st episode of the season where the Mad Hatter stuff happened, once was in a forest and I couldnt get to a place where I could see it and not be in their way, and once when they were doing a driving scene in an episode. But this was my 1st time getting to see cast actually shooting scenes. On this day, I saw them filming in 2 different locations. First up, was in an alley beside the exterior location for the Rabbit Hole. In the 1st scene Robin Givens was on set as Jada Jett, showing up in her Rolls Royce & seeming to walk into the bar with a tray of coffees. After that, they did a scene where Jada was now walking back to her car, and another person was there in the alley when she got there..... Meagan Tandy as Sophie Moore. The scene had the pair have a long talk that seemed pretty dialogue heavy. Jada then gets into her car, closes the door, and drives off, while Sophie looks on a little unimpressed look on her face. Then Sophie talks to someone off camera that was not there filming in the scene, and eventually runs after the car down the alley. Later on, the crew moved over a couple blocks to do another scene later that night in a parking garage. Javicia Leslie was there, however, what I saw was her stunt double doing a scene. By the time Javicia was ready to do her part, I had been out in freezing temperatures for a while, and called it a night. But not before getting a few photos of the stunt team doing a shot where Batwoman nabs a random henchman and pulls him upside down as she flies up & down from a 5 story parking garage. A few days later, I caught up to them filming in a courtyard at our library, but they were just wrapping the scene when I got there, and no cast were around, so I just took a photo of the Gotham City flag that was there. The next night however, I did catch up to 1 more stunt team. I know Camrus Johnson was on set that night, but it was so darm & smoky, that I do not know if any of the photos I took were of him, but I definitely got a few of Batwing doing a stunt. In this case, unlike the night of the Batwoman stunt, I cant even say what happened because the smoke was so thick in the alley. All I know is it consisted of wirework, and was filmed with a drone. Batwoman season 3 is in currently on Wednesday nights on The CW in the U.S., and returns January 12, 2022 to start the back half of season 3.

Friday night I went to a Batwoman set a few blocks from my house.It had been a while since I had actually had a chance to catch up to the show. The first of the Arrowverse shows that I say shooting this season had eluded me for a few weeks, especially since the news that Javicia Leslie as Ryan Wilder had her very own version of the Batsuit, and a newer looking Batmobile. Well, Friday night, finally we got our 1st close up look at her new suit, and the Batmobile (although not moving, just parked). The scene had Batwoman and Meagan Tandy as Sophie Moore doing a scene where the pair walk together back to where the Batmobile and a CROWS Security truck are parked. They have a talk that lasts between 30-45 seconds, then part ways, with Ryan heading to her car, while Sophie heads to the CROWS truck. I know a few fans were reading a lot into the 1 photo I posted on my Patreon of Ryan and Sophie facing each other with each others hands on the other, but unfortunately for them, I dont think that was anything. As I never saw it in any of the takes, before or after that, and dont recall if it was even part of a take at that time. If it IS part of the scene, it was the 1 & only take I saw them do it. There was a later scene in an alley a couple blocks away that Javicia also was going to be in. However, after 2 days of unexpected sets dropping on me, after an already hectic week for me, I chose to call it a night and passed on the very late shoot that wasnt going to start till well after 1 AM. Batwoman returns in January 2021, Sunday nights on The CW in the U.S. You can find my other Batwoman blogs HERE Want more Arrowverse materials?

UPDATE: NOVEMBER 4, 2019 - Actor on set playing Mouse has been identified. Info has been updated in the article. On Friday night I came across the next program in the ever continuing DC Comics Arrowverse for The CW, Batwoman. They were shooting scenes for an upcoming episode. I didnt get the episode number, but I would estimate episode 8, might be 7. Its hard to get a read on where they are filming wise so far as they have frequently been doing extra days due to balancing schedules. This scene was in the evening in the Downtown Eastside in an area known as Arch Alley that is used by a lot of film crews. For this scene, they had the alley dressed to look like an apocalpytic alley with a homeless camp, and a burned out car. The scene had Rachel Skarsten as Beth/Alice, Sam Littlefield as Johnny/Mouse and an unknown actor. They were doing a scene where Alice walks up to the burned out car, sets a large metal case on the back of it, while talking to a person behind her which we eventually would find out is Mouse, and in front of her. Alice eventually reaches into the case, and pulls out a large weapon and points it at a man standing several feet away in the alley. At some point she either shoots the gun, or makes an action of shooting the gun, and the man in front of her looks behind him as she does. She then calls Mouse over, takes him by the hand and walks away past the other man down the alley. After the scene wrapped, Rachel & the other actors left, and the crew moved over to shoot scenes a couple blocks away with Ruby Rose, Meagan Tandy and a lot of CROWS security that you can read about HERE. There is also video below of the scene from there, and from this set. The video for the Batwoman & Sophie scene is courtesy of @TheMyscirabound on twitter.

I didnt get the episode number, but I would estimate episode 8, might be 7. Its hard to get a read on where they are filming wise so far as they have frequently been doing extra days due to balancing schedules. On this night of filming the cast & crew were in downtown Vancouver filming in an alley off of Richards Street. There was an earlier shoot down the road from there that I will have a different post on later this week featuring Rachel Skarsten as Alice. But this specific shoot had a lot of CROWS trucks & guards, along with two cast. Ruby Rose was there as Batwoman, and Meagan Tandy was there as Sophie Moore. This was the first time I really saw 2 cast filming at the same location yet. This was the 9th set already I have been to for this show, and it was the first time I saw two regular cast on the show in the same scene. The production had a sign outside on Richards labeling a building "Gotham National Bank", so its safe to say after I left at 2 AM, they likely were going to move out there to shoot too. But the scene I saw was completely contained in the alley way, with CROWS trucks & guards driving up & down the street in the background. In the alley, we have Sophie in CROWS attire come up behind Batwoman with her gun drawn. A moment goes by, and next we see Sophie looking up into the sky and Batwoman is no longer where she was standing. After a few takes of that scene, they broke for lunch & when they came back from lunch, it seemed they might still be doing that scene, so I called it a night.

So far the series has filmed a lot in places that are not terribly visible. This was the 5th set I had been to for Batwoman, and it was the first time I really got a clear look at a scene done for the show. That said, it was not till the 3rd night of their shoot. This episode is being directed by Holly Dale, a veteran director of all of the Chicago (Med, Fire, & P.D.) shows, as well as Timeless, Reign, Castle, & Law & Order SVU, and many more. On the first night, they shot all interiors at the Vancouver Club. This time, the club was repurposed to be a museum. On that night I saw a bunch of well dressed people going in & out of the building through out the evening. But the real shocker for me was when I saw not 1, but TWO people dressed as Batwoman come out at one point. Neither of which was the shows lead Ruby Rose. A bit later, I finally for the first time since the show came back to start filming season 1, I saw Ruby at set.... unfortunately it was as she was leaving for the night at 4 AM. But at least I can finally confirm she isn't just a figment of everyones imagination as many may wonder after her cancellation of San Diego Comic Con. On the second night, again interior shooting was done. Again on that night I saw someone in the Batwoman costume that was not Ruby. In fact, I did not see Ruby till almost the end of the night as she showed up to work. During 1 tour I took away from the set during the night to investigate a different film set I was given a tip about, I came across their circus, and snapped a couple shots of some of the trailers there. Most notably was Sophie Moore, but more interesting was the non-regular cast I saw. A trailer for "Magpie doppleganger", and trailer for "Batwomen" and more curious one for "Batmen". At one point in the evening I did think I saw a guy come out in Batwoman gear, but my camera at night is far from reliable, so by the time it decided to do its job he was long into the darkness that surrounded much of the building. I saw a couple women dressed in short blond/silver hair and leather pants. Were either of them the "Magpie doppleganger" I saw the trailer for? Was 1 of them actually Magpie? I usually would think it could just be the stunt double of the actress, but 1 was a white woman, and the other Asian. So I am less sure that it was a stunt double, and not perhaps 1 being the doppleganger, and the other being the actual Magpie. I did at one point see a Sophie Moore (unsure if it was Meagan Tandy, or her double. Lighting was not ideal there outside of right in front of the door) walk out, but never saw her return. I left this set earlier than the night before, at around 3 AM because they had turned off all the outside lights, and most of the inside lights for whatever they were shooting, so being able to see anything was pointless. The third night they moved outside. Unfortunately, it was a busy night for me, and on top of it, there was inexplicably a massive crowd around the set for much of it after the first two nights there being less than 5 people total, suddenly a crowd of 60+ was there at one point. So I did not spend a lot of time there, and missed a scene that Ruby shot as Kate Kane later in the evening on the sidewalk. When I first got there I saw a variety of "Gotham" themed vehicles parked along the street. I find it funny that "Gotham Taxi" has a basic 7 number phone number. Gotham is supposed to be a city of 10 Million+, and Vancouver is a city of 600K and they have 3 area codes. Time to update the phone numbers a bit. Reality has passed the idea you can get away with a 7 digit phone number in a metro area now. While I was there however, I did see a scene shot that I never really quite understood. It seemed to have a bunch of the gallery guests out on the sidewalk for some reason. It seemed the boom mic was following this blonde girl in glasses, as she moved from 1 area where a couple of women flanked by CROWS security came up to talk to her, then several feet away she seemed to be talking to a different group of women. Was this Margaret Pye aka "Magpie"? I cant say for certain. I was unaware at first when I was shooting it that the woman on the head set might have been the focus of the scene. It wasnt till I looked at my photos later and noticed the boom mic was following her, and she was the only person in both parts of the scene. I left not long later as the crew were working hard to keep people from seeing the scene at all, and I didnt think there was much there to really see. Apparently I should have stuck it out, as I said earlier, Ruby did a scene out there that you can see in this gallery HERE from Celebrity Wotnot (unlike my photos, you very much will have to PAY to use theirs.... so be warned.).

With the announcement earlier this week from The CW that Batwoman would officially be joining the schedule of shows for the network this fall, it seemed like a good time to finally work on my blog post for the filming I saw done here. This production was kind of tough to track down over the 2-3 weeks they were here filming the pilot earlier this year. But I did catch up to them at 1 location on multiple nights. The Vancouver Art Gallery is used often for filming. Almost every production has filmed there. On the first night, they did an exterior shoot down in front of the gallery in the early evening. The scene saw a lot of Gothams elite going into an event that Mayor Akins was seemingly hosting, as massive banners saying “Mayor Akins” were hanging off the building. In front of the heavily guarded entrance for the event there was a CROWS Security truck at one point, along with dozens of protesters holding up a variety of signs in support of Batman. This sets the stage for the scene to clearly be from in the past, prior to when Batwoman comes to town as the hero of the city. But, the signs also indicate Batman hasn't been around much of late. Will we ever find out why? Will this be one of the seasons main stories to solve? Or will the Batwoman writing team just gloss over it, and shove it aside, and alienate the majority of Batwoman fans who come into her story through the more recognizable Batman by never paying off the acknowledgement of his existence? Cool extra thing throughout the shoot was, the use of the "Bat signal" in the sky in various spots. Much to everyone who was there watchings disappointment, it is nothing like the machine shown in the show. It is a far smaller lens, and more of a tube, with the Bat logo deep inside the tube, and not on the lens, to make the logo look bigger in the sky. On the final night, there seemed to be even less to see, as there was no exterior shoot going on, except a really small one on 1 side of the building that I almost missed because of the strategically planted tree that mostly covered the angle unless you are walking right through the narrow space it was shooting. I had seen it shortly before, but there was just a stand in up there at the time, and I didn't see any crew set up to shoot, so I mistakenly passed it off as maybe just a crew member standing there. A very small unit (literally a camera person and 3 other crew to cover off the area from people stepping into it did a shot that they might have done multiple times for all I know, but I sadly only caught them on the very last take. It had Ruby Rose staring down off a makeshift perch they had built just for the scene. The light on her was so bright, my photos basically looked like I photographed a ghost standing there. But once she walked away from it I saw it was her, but she would never come back for another take there, so that was all I saw of Batwoman actually shooting that night, and it was really just as Kate Kane. Some of the cast were on set throughout the two nights. But it is possible more than what I saw were there too, as much of what was shot was up on the rooftop during a rooftop party scene. Ruby Rose – Kate Kane / Batwoman Elizabeth Anweis – Catherine Hamilton Kane Nicole Kang – Mary Hamilton Meagan Tandy – Sophie Moore Rachel Skarsten – Alice Camrus Johnson – Luke Fox Dougray Scott – Colonel Jacob Kane Batwoman begins their 1st season on The CW October 6, 2019. Here is the heavily criticized Batwoman trailer. Which has almost 400,000 dislikes, 83% dislikes to 17% likes, and a whopping 7% of all views received garnering a dislike vote. Good news for them, they have a few problems to fix their writing problems. Below there is my set of photos from that shoot. |
