Superman & Lois will finally return with new episodes on May 18, as Supergirl takes a hiatus that sets up the show's final episodes over the summer. The CW has released the official synopsis of that episode, titled "Broken Trust," the midseason premiere, although without much real information. It seems the network is determined to keep a pretty tight lid on this one, although fans will certainly read plenty into what little is there. The series left off with Morgan Edge cultivating a supply of Kryptonite-X, and people around Smallville beginning to develop super-powers as a result. This is all against the backdrop of Lois's investigation of Edge, who would love to see her out of the picture.
Superman & Lois was renewed for a second season in March, before the second episode of the series had even aired yet. Later that same week, news broke that the show would take short hiatus, from late March until early May, and Supergirl would replace it on the schedule.
You can see the official synopsis below.
SUPERMAN & LOIS RETURNS TONIGHT WITH NEW EPISODES - Clark (Tyler Hoechlin) reconsiders his decision to let Jordan (Alex Garfin) play football. Meanwhile, Lois' (Elizabeth Tulloch) continued investigation of Morgan Edge (Adam Rayner) requires her to trust an unexpected ally. Emmanuelle Chriqui, Dylan Walsh, Erik Valdez, Inde Navarrette and Wole Parks also star. The episode was directed by Sudz Sutherland and written by Katie Aldrin.
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.
