Superman and Lois Season 4 release delayed: The forthcoming 10-episode season will debut after April 2024 to accommodate additional time for visual effects.
Fans may have to wait a bit longer for the premiere of Superman & Lois Season 4, as it’s now anticipated to be released deeper into 2024. The third season of the Arrowverse spin-off aired on The CW from March to June 2023.
Since the third season’s conclusion, there have been substantial developments regarding Season 4, particularly concerning its release timing. In July 2023, The CW unveiled its fall line-up, notably excluding Superman & Lois.
In August 2023, Nexstar CEO Perry Sook finally addressed the release of Season 4, acknowledging that it will be postponed even more, extending well into 2024. This delay is attributed to the strikes by Hollywood writers and actors.
New release update on Superman & Lois Season 4
Recently, The Hollywood Reporter provided a concise update on the release window of Superman & Lois Season 4, indicating that the forthcoming 10-episode season will debut after April 2024 to accommodate additional time for the completion of visual effects.
Now, that the strikes are over, we expect the filming to start soon. While Superman and Lois has not yet commenced production on its fourth and final season, there is some good news. Filming is reportedly expected to begin on January 11, 2024, and run for three months, with a possible wrap date of April 22, 2024.
When is Superman & Lois Season 4 release date on The CW?
Superman & Lois Season 3 entered production in September 2022 and wrapped up five months later on March 14, 2023, just as the premiere episode debuted on The CW.
If Season 4 commences filming in early 2024 and follows a production schedule similar to the third season, fans can anticipate the release of Season 4’s debut episode in the summer of 2024, potentially in June or July.
Fans are super excited for the fourth season
As mentioned above, the third season concluded on June 27, 2023, and it ended on a massive cliffhanger in which Superman and Doomsday were about to clash. Fans are disappointed after this release window update which has put the return further into 2024.
How many episodes will be in Superman and Lois season 4?
Superman and Lois season 4 will consist of 10 episodes. It means season 4 will be five episodes shorter than the first two seasons and three episodes shorter than season 3.
Superman and Lois season 4 will be the last
In October 2023, the announcement ended all the speculation surrounding the future of Superman and Lois. The show’s fourth season will be its last one. CW fans, though not entirely surprised, felt disappointed to hear the announcement.
The network’s shift towards more affordable acquired content had sparked worries about the show’s expensive production costs, making this decision somewhat expected yet unwelcome.
Where to watch Superman & Lois?
The first three seasons of Superman & Lois are available to stream on HBO Max.
