Superman and Lois star Elizabeth Tulloch teased the production of the new CW Arrowverse spin-off with a photo of the pilot script. The new series spins out of the events of the massive Crisis on Infinite Earths crossover, a 5-hour story told throughout all the CW DC TV shows. Supergirl actors Tulloch and Tyler Hoechlin, as Lois Lane and Superman, will portray the iconic comic book characters in an entirely new light: as parents. Although Supergirl had already established the couple with a baby son, the end of the mega-crossover event saw Lois ask Superman to return home to help with their boys, as in two super boys!
As production on the straight-to-series ordered show begins, Tulloch posted a picture of the pilot episode’s script to her Twitter account. Episode 101, titled “Pilot,” is written by Todd Helbing, from a story by Helbing and Greg Berlanti. The pilot’s cover photo also reveals Lee Toland Krieger (Riverdale, Chilling Adventures of Sabrina), will direct the first episode.
Arrowverse shows are known for their humor, and it seems like a show focused on Lois and Clark as parents to a couple of teenaged boys is a comedic goldmine. Early casting notices for the series called for two teenage boys, leaving many to speculate Jon Kent would be aged up and perhaps joined by Damian Wayne. However, we later learned the teens are named Jonathan and Jordan Kent and would be played by Jordan Elsass and Alexander Garfin, respectively.
As production on the series moves forward, expect more updates from the cast and creators. In the meantime, fans will have to continue to wonder which of the two Kent sons ends up with superpowers, which other classic DC heroes will join the series, and what types of threats Superman and Lois will face outside of adolescent angst.
