‘Superman And Lois’ Season 4 Trailer Teases A Dead Man of Steel

The death of Superman!

Superman and Lois season 4 CW arrowverse

Is Superman and Lois killing off the Man of Steel? The first trailer for season 4 teases a much darker turn for the Arrowverse swan song.

Fans were expecting a massive status quo shift heading into season 4 of Superman and Lois. The prior finale saw the Man of Steel facing off against a Bizarro-turned-Doomsday experiment, with the outcome of the battle left unknown. With the announcement that the following season would be the last of the Arrowverse, taking a hit from 13 episodes to 10, viewers were bracing themselves for some massive swings by the cast and crew.

The first trailer for season 4 delivered on all of that and so much more. The first footage from the final season of Superman and Lois put into focus an even darker tone than the infamously dark Arrowverse series had before. This includes a greater focus on Michael Cudlitz as Lex Luthor, tensions growing between Jonathan and Jordan, and the seeming death of the Man of Steel.

Is Superman Really Dead In Season 4?

Of course, most fans know that Superman and Lois won’t really be killing off its Man of Steel. It’d make headlines for the Arrowverse if it did happen, but set photos from season 4 have already shown Tyler Hoechlin alive and well. However, it wouldn’t be out of the question if the final season saw Clark stepping away from the mantle to let Jordan take up the family business.

That doesn’t mean season 4 won’t have any deaths. The trailer shows Lex Luthor kicking a bloodied Sam Lane into a ditch. With Sam Lane’s actor being demoted from a Superman and Lois series regular, it’s possible that the premiere will have the beloved general being killed, spurring forward the events of the Arrowverse’s final hurrah.

Superman and Lois season 4 premieres with a 2-hour-event on Thursday, October 17th on the CW. Stay tuned for the latest news regarding the Arrowverse and the future of the DC Universe. Make sure to subscribe to our YouTube channel for more content!
