The show’s producing team, Andrew Kreisberg, Greg Berlanti and Ali Adler released a statement promising that Clarke Kent aka Kal-El would be making an appearance in the next season.

“Greg, Ali and I are beyond thrilled to welcome Clark Kent and his slightly-more-famous alter ego to the world of ‘Supergirl,’” Kreisberg said. “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!”
