Supergirl Show Clark Kent Becoming Superman

In order to gives viewers enough time to make the switch, The CW is airing the first season of Supergirl in its entirety on Mondays starting August 1st in the 8pm ET time slot, where the show will continue with its second season. As Supergirl makes its move to new home The CW, the series is giving viewers a lot to be excited about. Fans will find out exactly who was in the Kryptonian pod, new characters like Snapper Carr and Maggie Sawyer are making their way to National City, and we know that Kara/Supergirl will be the main focus of a massive DCTV crossover event this fall.

Supergirl season 2 is also putting to rest the running gag of keeping Superman in the shadows. Shortly after the news of Tyler Hoechlin being cast in the role, The CW revealed what TV’s Man of Steel would look like all suited up. Suffice it to say the costume certainly got tongues wagging. Now that we’ve seen the hero, what about Clark Kent?

Pressure will be coming from all angles, given the blowback DC films have received surrounding Man of Steel and Batman V Superman. The actor has acknowledged the pressure he faces playing such an iconic role, and has teased wanting to explore Clark’s sense of humor proving this portrayal is expected to be much lighter.

Fellow Supergirl star, Mehcad Brooks, has also posted a behind-the-scenes photo of his character, Jimmy Olsen, hanging out with his buddy Clark. Now that Clark is more than just a text bubble on Kara’s screen, it will be interesting to see how he addresses Jimmy and Kara’s relationship given that Jimmy was supposed to look after Clark’s cousin. Fans will not have to wait long for a family reunion either since Clark/Superman will be appearing in the first two episodes of Supergirl‘s second season.

The Flash season 3 will premiere Tuesday October 4th at 8pm on The CW, Arrow season 5 will premiere in the same time slot on Wednesday October 5th, Supergirl season 2 on Monday October 10th, and Legends of Tomorrow season 2 on Thursday October 13th.

Looks AMAZING!!! Can't hardly wait to see Tyler Hoechlin as Clark Kent / Superman in @TheCWSupergirl 🙌💥 pic.twitter.com/pZiGoF98du

Major Crossover Alert: Supergirl and The Flash “Worlds Finest Unite”

This is it what will you do when two of your favorite characters will unite? Off course the excitement and joy is over flowing. CBS’ Supergirl TV show has already seen Kara Zor-El/Danvers join forces with another DC Comics superhero J’onn J’onzz a.k.a. Martian Manhunter, who passes himself off as being Hank Henshaw, the human head of the Department of Extranormal Operations organization that Kara and her adopted sister, Alex work for. However, Kara will soon be fighting super-villains alongside another DC stalwart altogether, as Gran Gustin’s Barry Allen from The CW’s The Flash will soon be making a trip to National City which it turns out exists as part of the larger Multi-verse that has served as the crux of the narrative for The Flash season 2.

The Supergirl/Flash crossover episode is titled "Worlds Finest" and was co-written by Supergirl series writer/producer Michael Grassi, along with Greg Berlanti and Andrew Kreisberg the latter duo, of course, also being the co-creators of both DC TV shows and the head executive producers on the series too. So far, it appears that ‘Worlds Finest’ will be structured as a one-shot adventure for Barry and Kara.

Here is the synopsis of the upcoming episode “Worlds Finest”:

Kara gains a new ally when the lightning-fast superhero The Flash suddenly appears from an alternate universe and helps Kara battle Siobhan, aka Silver Banshee, and Livewire in exchange for her help in finding a way to return him home.

The Official Poster released for the crossover.

Supergirl explores the responsibilities that Kara must deal with as not only a superhero who is trying to prove her worth in a world that already has Superman, but as a female superhero, at that. However, both The Flash and Supergirl have similarly upbeat, optimistic and overall more playful tones that allow them to explore meaningful subject matter and/or familial drama, while at the same time incorporating such outlandish DC Comics supervillains as King Shark and Silver Banshee, among others, into the mix without their presence feeling out of place. For that reason, a crossover between the two shows not only feels appropriate, it has the potential to make for an especially fun Supergirl episode too – regardless of whether or not it paves the way for future crossover adventures featuring Kara and characters from other CW/DC TV shows

Supergirl season 1 continues with ‘Falling’ on March 14th on CBS. The Flash season 2 continues with ‘Trajectory’ on March 22nd on The CW. The Flash/Supergirl crossover episode ‘Worlds Finest’ will air on March 28th on CBS.
