Supergirl “Alex” Official Preview Images

The CW has released a good selection of official photos from the May 1 episode of Supergirl which is called “Alex.” You can find the entire gallery – which includes Teri Hatcher’s Rhea in much more human clothing, which brings back memories of her Lois Lane – below. First, though here’s the description:

ALEX IS KIDNAPPED — Alex (Chyler Leigh) is kidnapped and the kidnapper threatens to kill her unless Supergirl (Melissa Benoist) releases a notorious criminal from prison. Supergirl and Maggie (Floriana Lima) have always had different approaches to apprehending criminals but this time they must work together to save Alex. Meanwhile, Rhea (guest star Teri Hatcher) has an interesting proposal for Lena (Katie McGrath). Rob Greenlea directed the episode written by Eric Carrasco & Greg Baldwin (#219). Original airdate 5/1/2017.

The new photos can be found in the gallery below.
