Plot Synopsis

Executive produced by Greg Berlanti, SUPERMAN & LOIS is a one-hour drama series that picks up the story of The Man of Steel and Lois Lane after years of facing megalomaniacal supervillains, monsters wreaking havoc on Metropolis, and alien invaders intent on wiping out the human race. Now, the couple must come face to face with one of their greatest challenges ever: dealing with all the stress, pressures and complexities that come with being working parents in today's society. Complicating the already daunting job of raising two boys, Clark and Lois must also concern themselves with whether or not their sons Jonathan and Jordan could inherit their father's Kryptonian superpowers as they grow older. Returning to Smallville to handle some Kent family business, Clark and Lois are reacquainted with Lana Lang, a local loan officer who also happens to be Clark's first love, and her Fire Chief husband Kyle Cushing. The adults aren't the only ones rediscovering old friendships in Smallville as the Kent sons are reacquainted with Lana and Kyle's rebellious daughter, Sarah. Of course, there's never a dull moment in the life of a superhero, especially with Lois' father, General Samuel Lane, looking for Superman to vanquish a villain or save the day at a moment's notice. Meanwhile, Superman and Lois' return to idyllic Smallville is set to be upended when a mysterious stranger enters their lives.

SUPERMAN & LOIS premiered on Tuesday, February 23, 2021 from 8-9:30pm ET/PT on The CW, immediately followed by a half-hour special, "Legacy of Hope" (9:30-10pm), that highlights sneak peeks and interviews from the cast of the new series, as well as featuring special guests who discuss the legacy of The Man of Steel.
