When will it Release?
For now, only the announcement of the second season has been made. Unfortunately, no exact release date was announced with it. The first season was released after one year of waiting due to the COVID-19 Pandemic.
Unlike the initial series’ Arrow, The Flash, and Supergirl that ranged from 20-25 episodes, Superman and Lois will have much less than that. According to IMDb, 15 episodes are in pipeline. So the first season will end by late 2021 which indicates that the new season will premier in the same week of February as its first counterpart.
Who will we be Seeing in Season 2?
For the second season, the main cast (Tyler Hoechlin and Elizabeth Tulloch) will be returning. Without them, the show will lose purpose. Alongside the two, the teenage actors (Jordan Elsass and Ale Garfin) will be reprising their roles as the Kent kids. Other expected cast includes Adam Rayner (Morgan Edge), Emmanuelle Chriqui (Lana Lang Cushing), and Dylan Walsh (Samuel Lane).
What Plotline will the Second Season Follow?
This question can’t be answered clearly as of now since only 4 episodes of the first season have been released so there isn’t much to predict about the future plot. Since the series will be returning for Season 2 fans can expect another phenomenal storyline like that of Season 1. There is a lot to explore in the Superman Universe so there are plenty of storylines that the creators can grab onto.
