Executive Producer Todd Helbing confirmed that a “bad-ass” new suit will be coming for Tyler Hoechlin‘s Superman in Superman & Lois next year, and that is just one of the things that was discussed at today’s panel at DC FanDome.

We live-tweeted the event from our @SupermanLoisTV Twitter account, but if you want some highlights, here goes:

- Clark and Lois feel like Smallville is the right place to raise Jonathan and Jordan after a tragic event happens.
- The show will explore what it’s like to be parents with jobs like “Superman” and “the world’s greatest reporter.” The sons Jonathan and Jordan will represent “two different skill sets.”
- “Crisis really gave us an opportunity to start with a blank slate and tell the story in a way we couldn’t otherwise,” Todd Helbing says of some changes they could make, like giving Superman and Lois two teenage sons.
- Elizabeth Tulloch has read two Superman & Lois scripts now and she finds the story with the sons to be “really, really compelling.”
- Tyler Hoechlin likes that what Superman stands for really grabs on to such an impressionable audience who sees him as a hero. It makes him even more excited to play the character, and he is aware of the long-standing legacy of the character and how he means a wide range of things to many generations.
- “Lana was Clark’s first love, and it’s an interesting dynamic as an adult how you deal with that,” Todd Helbing says, assuring, though, that Superman will not have an affair.
- It sounds like the boys and Lana’s daughter Sarah Cushing will have their own love triangle.
- Drama between Lois and her father, General Sam Lane (Dylan Walsh), will also be explored.
- Lois being the world’s greatest reporter is one of her “superpowers” making her and Superman an unstoppable team.
- Elizabeth Tulloch as seen the Christopher Reeve Superman films with Margot Kidder, but she has not really seen Smallville. She did, however, have nic things to say about meeting Erica Durance.
- “She gets why Superman is so important for the world,” Tulloch says of something that makes Lois special.
- “We needed a little bit of hope, and we needed a little bit of optimism,” Tyler Hoechlin says of how the SSuperman role came around for him at the right time in his life.
- Elizabeth Tulloch shared a story about filming the Elseworlds crossover — when Tyler did the “shirt rip,” she and The Flash Grant Gustin were in awe, and Gustin even gasped offscreen.

I’m liking what i’m hearing from DC Fandome concerning Superman and Lois, especially a new suit for Tyler after the Crisis.

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.

The final season of Superman & Lois is set to premiere this Fall on The CW. Season 4 will consist of only ten episodes and of the cast, only five will be returning as series regulars: Tyler Hoechlin (Clark Kent/Superman), Elizabeth “Bitsie” Tulloch (Lois Lane), Alex Garfin (Jordan Kent), Michael Bishop (Jonathan Kent), and Michael Cudlitz (Lex Luthor).

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.

Superman & Lois star Elizabeth “Bitsie” Tulloch (Lois Lane) has shared the title of the series finale in an Instagram post as filming has begun for the final episode.

The series finale will be called “It Went By So Fast” and it is written by showrunners Brent Fletcher and Todd Helbing. As KryptonSite revealed a few weeks ago, the finale director is Gregory Smith. Filming for Season 4 is expected to continue for the next week. In many ways, “It Went By So Fast” is a perfect title for a the final episode of this TV series, as it feels like just yesterday Superman & Lois premiered on The CW.

“Tried to take a normal ‘First day of filming the #SupermanAndLois series finale!’ selfie, but quickly ended up in tears,” she captioned her post. “What a beautiful ride this has been. So grateful. Especially to our crew – this final season has been tough ph”ysically and emotionally on everyone and I see you and how hard you are working and I am so appreciative of you all.”

Alex Garfin, who plays her son Jordan on Superman & Lois, had a quote to add. “The real Superman was the Lois we made along the way,” he commented. Other comments of support came from Arrowverse favorites such as Candice Patton (The Flash’s Iris) and Danielle Panabaker (Caitlin from The Flash).

Tayler Buck has also revealed on social media that she’s filming, so we can expect to see her in the series finale. The speculation is that most if not all of the cast that are no longer series regulars will be back for the final episode, though this is not officially confirmed.

The fourth and final season of Superman & Lois premieres this Fall on The CW; you can see Bitsie’s Instagram post embedded below. Special thanks goes out to Ben/TheDCTVShow for bringing this news to our attention with today’s video!
