The cast of Batwoman have reacted to Ruby Rose's shock departure from the show.
The former Orange Is the New Black star revealed this week that she had left the show after just one season, and the role would now be recast.
Camrus Johnson, who plays Luke Fox in the CW show, tweeted: "Family, those whose hearts are breaking break mineee.
"What’s important: we have a season 2. We will work our freakin butts off to give you an amazing season 2 that continues to represent the lgbtqa+ communities and people of colour.
"We will keep going strong. Believe that."
Fans inundated the actor with responses, so he wrote: "Okay wow I just posted this and the positivity is already flowing in.
"This is what I mean! We will continue to make y'all proud because we love this series and you all so FRIGGIN much, I mean it. AND IF YOU THOUGHT YOU SAW OUR A-GAMES BEFORE OOO BABY JUST WAIT."
Mary Hamilton actress Nicole Kang also wrote: "Hi. I'm thinking of all of you. Big hug. Keep my head up if you keep yours up. Xx"
Rose said in a statement: "I have made the very difficult decision to not return to Batwoman next season.
"This was not a decision I made lightly as I have the utmost respect for the cast, crew and everyone involved with the show in both Vancouver and in Los Angeles.
"I am beyond appreciative to Greg Berlanti, Sarah Schechter and Caroline Dries for not only giving me this incredible opportunity, but for welcoming me into the DC universe they have so beautifully created."
Who will be taking over the role has yet to be announced, but Brooklyn Nine-Nine star Stephanie Beatriz has hinted at how keen she'd be to join the show.
Batwoman airs on The CW in the US. It airs on E4 in the UK.
