Renee Maria Montoya is a character appearing in media published by DC Entertainment. The character was created by Bruce Timm, Paul Dini and Mitch Brian for Batman: The Animated Series and was preemptively introduced into mainstream comics before the airing of her animated debut in 1992 in the DC Animated Universe (DCAU) series Batman: The Animated Series / The New Batman Adventures, voiced by Ingrid Oliu, and later Liane Schirmer. Originally conceived of as a heterosexual widow, she was later redeveloped as a lesbian and primary love interest of Kate Kane / Batwoman.[1]
Renee is initially a detective from the Gotham City Police Department, assigned to the Major Crimes Unit, who comes into frequent contact with Batman. After being outed and framed for murder, she resigns from the police force, and begins operating as the second Question out of a lighthouse that she shares with Aristotle Rodor on the Outer Banks of North Carolina.
Montoya made her live-action debut in the first season of Gotham, portrayed by Victoria Cartagena, who reprised the role in the third season of the Arrowverse series Batwoman, with both series portraying her as an antagonist before becoming an ally. She made her cinematic debut in the 2020 DC Extended Universe (DCEU) film Birds of Prey,[2] portrayed by Rosie Perez.
