Victoria Cartagena to Portray Renee Montoya on the CW’s “Batwoman”

It’s a case of déjà vu for Victoria Cartagena.

The 36-year-old Latina actress has joined the upcoming third season of Batwoman as a new series regular, portraying DC hero Renee Montoya on the CW drama.

Victoria Cartagena

Cartagena’s character, Montoya, is a former GCPD officer who left the force when she could no longer stomach the corruption inside the department. She now runs the “freaks division,” which hasn’t seen a lot of action… until now. Righteous and pragmatic, and LGBTQ+, she’s a woman with a very personal (and mysterious) mission to help clean the streets of Gotham in the right way, by whatever means necessary.

Cartagena previously played Renee Montoya on Fox’s Gotham, though the universes are not connected.

In the June 27 Season 2 finale, Ryan Wilder (Javicia Leslie) has fully taken up the mantle of Batwoman with Kate Kane leaving Gotham in a search for her long-missing cousin Bruce Wayne (aka Batman). It also was revealed that Ryan’s biological mother, who was believed to have died in childbirth, is actually alive.

In addition to Leslie, Rachel Skarsten, Meagan Tandy, Nicole Kang and Camrus Johnson also star; original cast member Dougray Scott recently left the series. 

Batwoman is produced by Berlanti Productions in association with Warner Bros Television.

Cartagena’s other recent credits include a series regular role on Fox’s Almost Family, and recurring on M. Night Shyamalan’s Apple TV+ series Servant. She also recurred on the first season of NBC’s Manifest.

Posey Featured in Special “Teen Wolf” Behind-the-Scenes Clip

Can’t wait to see Tyler Posey in the third season of Teen Wolf next summer? Well, you’re in luck.

MTV has released some behind-the-scenes footage of the 21-year-old half-Mexican actor and some of his co-stars to tide fans over until the summer premiere.

“Welcome to Season 3 of Teen Wolf, first day of filming! Merry Christmas,” says Posey to open the video.

In the clip, Posey, Dylan O’Brien, Tyler Hoechlin and more cast members are featured on the set during the first day of filming the new chapter. They are mostly seen shooting the scenes in a vet’s office and in the school, with Miss California 2007 Meagan Tandy showing off her skill with a stick in locker room.

New faces Charlie Carver and Max Carver, who portray twin brothers Ethan and Aiden, also make an appearance. And toward the end, Posey and O’Brien return to read some fan letters.

Teen Wolf will return with its third season in the summer 2013, although no exact premiere date has been announced.
