The long wait is over: The CW and Warner Bros. Television have finally released an official first look photo of Tyler Hoechlin‘s new Superman costume for the upcoming CW TV series Superman & Lois. Some glimpses of the suit had made their way to social media in the past, but as you can see, this one is a whole lot clearer… and nope, still no underpants.

Here’s the photo in all its glory. Superman & Lois premieres Tuesday, February 23 on The CW.

“I find that the new suit is representative of the show. Just as this suit is unique and set apart from the ones that preceded it, the story we’re telling about Clark/Superman at this point in his life is unique and something we’ve never seen before,” Tyler Hoechlin says of the new look. “I appreciate the opportunity to wear the suit and the responsibility that comes with it. But it’s always interesting when I’m asked how I feel about ‘my new suit,’ because I’ve always felt that the suit doesn’t belong to me; it belongs to everyone that finds some kind of meaning in that suit, in the symbol on the chest. I just happen to be the one wearing it. I come from the world of baseball and a line of coaches that always preached that the name on the front of the jersey is more important than the one on the back. Because when you wear that jersey, it represents not only you, but your entire team, and everyone that has ever worn that jersey that came before you. So when I wear the suit, that’s what it means to me. It represents everything that Superman stands for and has stood for, for almost a century now. And I look forward to carrying on that tradition.”

The new suit is designed by Laura Jean Shannon and built by her LA-based Supersuits team – the same team that made many of the well-liked costumes from Titans. She did this in conjunction with Creative Character Engineering. While not having underpants on the outside, the suit has a classic, timeless vibe that both harkens back to the Superman we all grew up with while grounding him and elevating the suit in a modern arena with updated techniques and applications.

“We got Superman into some custom athletic inspired Super-Boots as a “jumping off point” and focused on a new neckline and cape to maximize the billowing and movement we all love to see in the books and films that have defined this character for generations,” Shannon said. “A streamlined muscle structure and updated paint job combined with some dynamic design lines and a sculpted armored belt all took his established custom fabric into a new direction to solidify the new look for Superman in Superman & Lois.”

Superman & Lois premieres Tuesday, February 23 on The CW. An official new two-shot photo of Tyler Hoechlin as Clark Kent with Elizabeth Tulloch as Lois Lane is promised to be coming very soon, so be sure to follow our @SupermanLoisTV Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram accounts to see those when they arrive!

In SUPERMAN & LOIS, after years of facing megalomaniacal supervillains, monsters wreaking havoc on Metropolis, and alien invaders intent on wiping out the human race, the world’s most famous superhero, The Man of Steel aka Clark Kent (Tyler Hoechlin, “Teen Wolf”) and comic books’ most famous journalist, Lois Lane (Elizabeth Tulloch, “Grimm”), come face to face with one of their greatest challenges ever – dealing with all the stress, pressures and complexities that come with being working parents in today’s society. Complicating the already daunting job of raising two boys, Clark and Lois must also concern themselves with whether or not their sons Jonathan (Jordan Elsass, “Little Fires Everywhere”) and Jordan (Alexander Garfin, “The Peanuts Movie”) could inherit their father’s Kryptonian superpowers as they grow older.

Returning to Smallville to handle some Kent family business, Clark and Lois are reacquainted with Lana Lang (Emmanuelle Chriqui, “Entourage”), a local loan officer who also happens to be Clark’s first love, and her Fire Chief husband Kyle Cushing (Erik Valdez, “Graceland”). The adults aren’t the only ones rediscovering old friendships in Smallville as the Kent sons are reacquainted with Lana and Kyle’s rebellious daughter, Sarah (Inde Navarrette, “Wander Darkly”). Of course, there’s never a dull moment in the life of a superhero, especially with Lois’ father, General Samuel Lane (Dylan Walsh, “Nip/Tuck”) looking for Superman to vanquish a villain or save the day at a moment’s notice. Meanwhile, Superman and Lois’ return to idyllic Smallville is set to be upended when a mysterious stranger (Wolé Parks, “All American”) enters their lives.

Based on the characters from DC created by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, SUPERMAN & LOIS is written and executive produced by Todd Helbing (“The Flash”) and executive produced by Greg Berlanti, Sarah Schechter, Geoff Johns. The series is from Berlanti Productions in association with Warner Bros. Television.

Superman & Lois Finishes Backlot Filming; Finale Photos & Guests

Filming on the Superman & Lois backlot has wrapped and new photos and guest stars have leaked for the finale.

We’re down to the final days of production for Superman & Lois and Elizabeth Tulloch has shared on her Instagram story that they have finished filming on the Cloverdale backlot that was built for the show in 2020. Interestingly, she also pointed out that the backlot will soon be used for a major project. No word on what show will be taking over the lot, but she says the show is “very prestigious.”

Next up, via “flashfacts4real” on Instagram who shared the photos from Canadagraphs, some shots from the finale filming! Several not-yet-announced returning faces who were no longer series regulars seem to be present. It’s very interesting that we see a fairly beat-up Superman in one shot; we’re also fascinated by the “25 Years of Steelworks Industries” shot which shows artwork of John Henry Irons (Wolé Parks) in a look and a suit very reminiscent of the comics, complete with the red cape and the “S.” The “25 years” makes us wonder… are we getting a flash-forward in the final episode? That could be quite interesting, especially if we get to see what happens to the Kent family in the decades to come. It may also provide a good bookend for the series premiere which explored their past.

Another returning actor has been confirmed for the Superman & Lois series finale.

We had already seen that Tayler Buck (Natalie) would be back for the finale; now also via Instagram we see that Emmanuelle Chriqui (Lana Lang) will be back for the final episode as well.

“SO many emotions… much more later,” she captioned it.

Tyler Hoechlin (Clark), Elizabeth Tulloch (Lois), Alex Garfin (Jordan), Michael Bishop (Jonathan), and Michael Cudlitz (Lex Luthor) are the only series regulars who will be returning in that status for the final season, but most of the actors not on that list, including Chriqui, Buck, Wolé Parks, Dylan Walsh, Sofia Hasmik, and Erik Valdez, are expected to make guest appearances in Season 4.

As revealed earlier this week by Bitsie Tulloch, the series finale is called “It Went By So Fast.” The fourth and final season will consist of only ten episodes, with the last one currently filming as we speak. Superman & Lois Season 4 is scheduled to premiere this Fall on The CW; follow @KryptonSite on Twitter/X for continued updates about the new season! And if you’d like to see what Emmanuelle posted on Instagram, you can see an embed below.

Season three of SUPERMAN & LOIS opens weeks after Superman’s blowout defeat of Ally Allston. Clark (Tyler Hoechlin) and Lois (Elizabeth Tulloch) are now working at the Smallville Gazette together and enjoying small town life. But the Kents’ romantic bliss only shines a light on how isolating “the secret” can be, as Chrissy (Sofia Hasmik) struggles to balance a new love interest and her friendship with Lois. However, Lois’ own work-life balance is put to the test when an undercover assignment reveals a deadly foe that promises to change the Kent family forever. Superman would move heaven and earth for his family, but with a villain this merciless, even that might not be enough. Meanwhile, the Kent boys find themselves being pulled in opposite directions as Jordan (Alex Garfin) discovers what a superhero-identity really means and Jonathan (Michael Bishop) searches for purpose beyond the football field. Amid all this upheaval, John Henry (Wolé Parks) is haunted by his doppelgänger’s past, leading to dangerous consequences for him and Natalie (Tayler Buck). Lana Lang (Emmanuelle Chriqui) and Kyle (Erik Valdez) redefine their family post-separation, while Sarah (Inde Navarrette) explores what the future holds for her and Jordan now that she knows the truth about his powers. Having learned the hard way that no one else can be trusted to work with Superman, General Samuel Lane (Dylan Walsh) reclaims his post at the Department of Defense, only to face his own conflict in working with his grandson, Jordan.

SUPERMAN & LOIS stars Tyler Hoechlin as Clark Kent/Superman, Elizabeth Tulloch as Lois Lane, Alex Garfin as Jordan Kent, Michael Bishop as Jonathan Kent, Alexander Erik Valdez as Kyle Cushing, Inde Navarrette as Sarah Cushing, Wolé Parks as Henry Irons, Tayler Buck as Natalie Irons Sofia Hasmik as Chrissy Beppo, Chad L. Coleman as Bruno Mannheim, with Dylan Walsh as General Samuel Lane and Emmanuelle Chriqui as Lana Lang Cushing.
