Day continued, “It’s a huge responsibility stepping into the shoes of a character that’s already been established and it’s a journey I’m looking forward to being a part of and hoping you guys do too.”
Rose also commented on Day taking over from her role, adding, “I’m sorry I didn’t congratulate @wallisday yesterday. I knew about the casting beforehand and didn’t know when it aired so i forgot to. But I’m stoked for her! I’m seeing all the things I’m tagged in with people sad or wondering how I felt .. I feel great I have nothing but good vibes.”
Season 2 centres on Ryan Wilder (played by Javicia Leslie) who takes over as the new Batwoman.
Day comes into the show as a badly burned Kate finally resurfaces following a plane crash in Gotham.
