"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

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.
Thank
you
Peter
Roth
and
Mark
Pedowitz
and
the
teams
at
Warner
Bros.
and
The

put
so
much
into

believed
in
me.

you
to
everyone
who
made
season
one
a
success
-
I
am
truly
grateful," Ruby
