DC Comics has officially announced that Lex Luthor is coming to the Arrowverse. The character will, naturally, be making his entrance on Supergirl later in season 4.
“We’re beyond excited to introduce iconic villain, Lex Luthor, to Supergirl and to weave him into our story this season,”say executive producers Robert Rovner and Jessica Queller. “We’ve talked about having Lex on the show since its inception and we’re excited to have him finally arrive. We can’t wait for him to shake things up in National City and watch him go toe to toe with not only Supergirl, but his sister Lena Luthor.”
Casting for the character has not yet been completed. This means that he WON’T be appearing in the Elseworlds crossover which airs in December. Instead he will make his first appearance sometime in the second half of the season.
Supergirl stars Melissa Benoist, David Harewood, Mehcad Brooks and Chyler Leigh. The series airs on The CW in North America, Sundays at 8/7c.
