Superman Will Fly Again on The CW in First Two Episodes of SUPERGIRL Season 2

Fans of Supergirl were a little worried for a minute when the show wasn't immediately picked up for a second season, but now that all of the details have been worked out and the dust has settled, we know season 2 will air on Monday nights on The CW (which probably should have been its home all along).

The first season was largely devoid of real footage of Kara's more famous cousin, Superman, but today executive producer Andrew Kreisberg released a statement announcing that the Man of Steel will appear in the first two episodes of Supergirl's second season:

“Greg Berlanti, Ali Adler 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!”

Looks like they want to kick off the second season with a bang. And casting someone to play Superman makes you wonder if that character might return for the massive crossover they're planning. There's no word yet about which actor will play the character, but whoever he is will join the ranks of George Reeves, Christopher Reeve, Dean Cain, Brandon Routh, and Henry Cavill as men who wore the iconic "S" on their chests. And Tom Welling, of course, played Clark Kent/Superman on Smallville for ten seasons on The CW, so this will be something of a homecoming for the character. Who do you think should play Superman on Supergirl?
