Superman & Lois to End with Season 4 on The CW
The CW’s DC era is ending with Superman & Lois Season 4.
The network announced today that the show’s upcoming fourth season will be its last. Superman & Lois, starring Tyler Hoechlin and Elizabeth Tulloch in the titular roles, will come to an end with a 10-episode season.
The superhero show’s fourth and final season is slated to air on The CW in 2024.
Superman & Lois marks the end of an era for the network that has aired multiple superhero TV shows since Arrow‘s premiere in 2012. It ended after an eight-season run in 2020.
The Arrowverse was born with The Flash, which aired for nine seasons from 2015 to 2023, and expanded with Supergirl, which aired for six seasons from 2015 to 2021, and Legends of Tomorrow, which debuted in 2016 and ended its seven-season run in 2022.
The shared universe grew once more with 2018’s Black Lightning, which aired for four seasons and ended in 2021, and 2019’s Batwoman, which aired for three seasons and ended in 2022.
Since then, The CW has housed superhero shows outside the Arrowverse, Superman & Lois included when it premiered in 2021. Stargirl debuted in 2020 and aired for three seasons until its cancellation in 2022, and Naomi aired for one season on The CW in 2022 before its cancellation.
Finally, The CW canceled Gotham Knights amid its debut season earlier this year.
The network renewed Superman & Lois alongside the All American spinoff series All American: Homecoming in June 2023.
Shortly after, news broke that seven cast members would not return as series regulars on Season 4 — Dylan Walsh, Emmanuelle Chriqui, Erik Valdez, Inde Navarrette, Wolé Parks, Tayler Buck, and Sofia Hasmik.
The returning series regulars for Superman & Lois Season 4 are Tyler Hoechlin as Clark Kent/Superman, Elizabeth Tulloch as Lois Lane, Alex Garfin as Jordan Kent, and Michael Bishop as Jonathan Kent.
Michael Cudlitz, who appeared in a guest starring role on Superman & Lois Season 3, has also been promoted to a series regular for the show’s upcoming fourth and final season.
“Over the last three seasons, Superman & Lois redefined both the superhero genre and family drama as Tyler, Elizabeth and the entire cast effortlessly portrayed these classic characters with new layers of depth and complexity that had never before been explored in the Superman universe,” Brad Schwartz, President of Entertainment, The CW Network, said.
“We are grateful for the years of hard work and graceful storytelling from the show’s writers, producers, actors, and crew, as well as our terrific partners at Warner Bros. Television and Berlanti Productions,” Schwartz added.
“As Superman embarks on his final flight, the team is leaving us with an absolutely epic 10-episode must-watch-every-minute farewell to one of the most legendary CW families ever,” Schwartz concluded.
“While we’re sad to say goodbye to Superman & Lois at the end of Season Four, we’re grateful for the time we’ve had with our amazing cast, crew, vfx teams, editors, musical geniuses, and writers. Since the day this show was first discussed, it was about family. And that’s what was created—on and off screen,” executive producers and co-showrunners Todd Helbing and Brent Fletcher said.
“We’d like to thank our partners at Berlanti Productions, DC, WB, and The CW for their endless support and enthusiasm during this journey…and give a very special thank you to all the fans for tuning in,” Helbing and Fletcher added.
“We’re thrilled about what we have in store in our final season, and can’t wait for everyone to watch as Superman, Lois, and all our heroes face off against the biggest threat in the show’s history—Lex Luthor,” Helbing and Fletcher concluded.
Superman & Lois is based on the characters from DC created by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster and comes from Berlanti Productions in association with Warner Bros. Television. Greg Berlanti, Todd Helbing, Sarah Schechter, Brent Fletcher, and Geoff Johns executive produce the show.
