Why Superman & Lois Is Ending After Season 4

The CW’s Superman & Lois will conclude with its upcoming fourth season. Tyler Hoechlin’s run as Superman has been a rather unique one, with Hoechlin first debuting as the Man of Steel on The CW’s Supergirl, before finally headlining Superman & Lois upon the show’s debut in 2021. While initially presented as having ambiguous ties to Hoechlin’s Superman role in the Arrowverse, season 2 clarified the series as a standalone show set in its own universe, allowing Superman & Lois season 3 to maintain its focus on the story of Clark Kent and Lois Lane (Elizabeth Tulloch) raising their teenage sons in Smallville.
