Superman will appear on the first two episodes of Supergirl season 2, flying to television just as Supergirl
flies to its new home on The CW. The character has not yet been cast,
but his appearance was revealed via a press release, perhaps because
casting announcements have just been sent out.
"Greg, Ali and I are beyond thrilled to welcome Clark Kent and his slightly-more-famous alter ego to the world of Supergirl.
Superman will be appearing in the first two episodes of the new season
and we cannot wait to see who next dons the red cape!" said executive
producer Andrew Kreisberg.
The EP also said in that previous
interview that "if you're going to cast Superman, you've got cast
Superman right!" That seems to click with the idea of announcing the
character's appearance while the casting process is ongoing.
"For us, Superman is more of an
idea than it is a personification of the character, so we're more than
happy to have him backlit," Kreisberg said of his season one
appearances. "We're perfectly happy to have him swoop in, save Kara in
Episode Three, because the real heart of the story is that she then
kicks Reactron's butt. She's the one that takes him down, and that's
what much more important for us.
"So it's not like we've been asking for more Superman or can we do it
like this or can we have him in this. For us, we're perfectly happy
with the amount of Superman that we've had because it's the exact amount
that we've asked for."
Now, they've asked for him.
