Superman And Lois: Clip Sees Them Meet!

Superman And Lois is literally debuting tonight, which is awesome news for DC fans everywhere. I was lucky enough to see the pilot episode a little while ago but will be tuning in again tonight anyway. In addition to the longer pilot episode, we’ll have a special accompanying the premiere. This will include various interviews with the cast and crew. It’s the place to be on a Tuesday night if you’re a DC fan. We’ve seen various posters and trailer spill out in the last month as the CW has been getting us hyped for the new premiere. The newest clip is a sweeter one, focusing on the most famous couple in comic books. This new Superman and Lois clip sees them meet. That’s right, ahead of the premiere tonight you can check out how the Man of Steel met his wife.

In Superman & Lois, after years of facing megalomaniacal supervillains, monsters wreaking havoc on Metropolis, and alien invaders intent on wiping out the human race, the world’s most famous superhero, The Man of Steel aka Clark Kent (Tyler Hoechlin, “Teen Wolf”) and comic books’ most famous journalist, Lois Lane (Elizabeth Tulloch, “Grimm”), 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 (Jordan Elsass, “Little Fires Everywhere”) and Jordan (Alexander Garfin, “The Peanuts Movie”) 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 (Emmanuelle Chriqui, “Entourage”), a local loan officer who also happens to be Clark’s first love, and her Fire Chief husband Kyle Cushing (Erik Valdez, “Graceland”). 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 (Inde Navarrette, “Wander Darkly”). Of course, there’s never a dull moment in the life of a superhero, especially with Lois’ father, General Samuel Lane (Dylan Walsh, “Nip/Tuck”) looking for Superman to vanquish a villain or save the day at a moment’s notice.

“Superman is a difficult person to dramatize because he’s perfect in a lot of ways,” Helbing said. “The analogy we always use is Superman is sort of but Clark can be clumsy as a dad. I think being clumsy as a parent, that’s something that we all are. We’re all figuring it out. There are a lot of books written about it, but the second it happens to you, you don’t know what you’re doing. So why would that be any different for the Man of Steel? In a lot of ways, that opened up the floodgates about really telling stories where people can relate to him in a way that they haven’t been able to before.”

Did you enjoy the clip that sees them meet!? I know I did.
