Superman & Lois is returning to Season 4, nevertheless it got here at a price. Final month, it was first revealed that Dylan Walsh wouldn’t proceed being a collection common on the CW present, and that was adopted shortly thereafter by six different actors being reduce from the primary forged. Effectively, Inde Navarrette, who’s been enjoying Sarah Cortez since Superman & Lois premiered in 2021, has revealed we’ll be seeing extra of her in Season 4, nevertheless it wasn’t all excellent news she needed to move alongside.
Let’s begin off on a constructive observe first. Over on Navarrette’s TikTok, a fan requested if she had any replace on Superman & Lois Season 4, and he or she gave the next reply:
So principally, me and some different folks from the forged are actually visitor stars as an alternative of collection regulars, and so we’ll be in about three episodes a minimum of. However, a minimum of you guys get a Season 4. We virtually obtained cancelled, so a minimum of we obtained a Season 4.
Inde Navarrette didn’t determine the opposite actors who will be a part of her for these roughly three episodes, although I wouldn’t be shocked if she was referring to Emmanuelle Chriqui and Erik Valdez, who play Sarah’s mom and father, Lanan Lang and Kyle Cushing. Even when the primary forged cuts had been unveiled, it was reported that there was “hope” for these actors to recur or visitor star in Season 4. Additionally take into account that these three episodes gained’t all essentially air concurrently; possibly Sarah will solely seem within the new season’s first two episodes, after which return for the finale, for instance. Regardless, a minimum of followers can relaxation simple realizing the Superman & Lois Season 3 finale, which arrange main potential for the fourth season, gained’t be the final they see of Sarah.
Now let’s get to the possibly unhealthy information. Sarah’s relationship with Alex Garfin’s Jordan Kent has been one of many driving subplots in Superman & Lois, and within the Season 3 finale, the 2 determined to finish their friendship, as they wanted to spend time aside to determine their respective lives on their very own. When a special fan instructed Inde Navarrette that the collection wanted to “resolve some issues with Jordan and Sarah” throughout these three episodes in Season 4, she posted the under TikTok video:

That’s an expression that screams “You’re out of luck” with that request, though I query whether or not that’s set in stone. In spite of everything, even when the Superman & Lois writers had begun engaged on Season 4 forward of the writers strike, it’s uncertain they obtained too far into plotting the story that can unfold over 10 episodes. Plus, the truth that Navarrette mentioned that the present “virtually obtained cancelled” means that Season 4 being a certain factor wasn’t one thing recognized months forward of time. So whereas it looks as if the actress has been knowledgeable that Jordan and Sarah’s relationship points gained’t be resolved in Season 4, or maybe not essentially to the diploma that followers would really like, possibly that can change down the road.
Up to now Superman & Lois’ Season 4 major forged solely consists of Tyler Hoechlin, Elizabeth Tulloch, Alex Garfin, Michael Bishop and Michael Cudlitz, the latter of whom debuted as Lex Luthor in Season 3’s penultimate episode. The ultimate minutes of the Season 3 finale noticed Hoechlin’s Man of Metal battling Doomsday, a reworked model of the Inverse Superman, a.okay.a. Bizarro, on the floor of the moon. Whether or not or not this present intends to adapt The Dying of Superman and kill off the Kryptonian superhero, a minimum of briefly, stays to be seen, however no matter finally ends up taking place in Season 4, it’ll be with a significant diminished presence of acquainted faces.
The primary two seasons of Superman & Lois may be streamed with a Max subscription, and presumably Season 3 will make it to the platform within the coming months. Whereas we watch for extra information on Season 4, preserve observe of present programming with our 2023 TV schedule.
