Morgan Edge is coming to Superman & Lois… but it won’t be Supergirl’s Adrian Pasdar reprising his role. Instead, Deadline has revealed that actor Adam Rayner (no relation to Kyle) of Tyrant fame has landed the role.

The Superman & Lois take on the character is “an intelligent, eloquent and impassioned self-made mogul who’s innate ability to motivate is the means to his success and others’ demise.” Deadline notes that this will be a series regular role.

This isn’t the first time that the role of Morgan Edge has been recast — when Rutger Hauer was unavailable to reprise the role in Smallville Season 3, he was replaced by Patrick Bergin. Morgan Edge also almost appeared in Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman, but for some reason that character name was changed to Bill Church and the episode called “Edge of Metropolis” was changed to “Church of Metropolis” as a result.

The Morgan Edge character first appeared in the comic books with Superman’s Pal Jimmy Olsen #133, where he was created by the legendary Jack Kirby. The character is often tied to a group called Intergang and we would not be surprised if this is a direction that the show goes in – giving Lois something to investigate and Superman extra villains to fight.

The new television series Superman & Lois premieres February 23, 2021 on The CW. Follow @SupermanLoisTV on Twitter for updates!

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. Meanwhile, Superman and Lois’ return to idyllic Smallville is set to be upended when a mysterious stranger (Wolé Parks, “All American”) enters their lives. Based on the characters from DC created by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, SUPERMAN & LOIS is written and executive produced by Todd Helbing (“The Flash”) and executive produced by Greg Berlanti, Sarah Schechter, Geoff Johns. The series is from Berlanti Productions in association with Warner Bros. Television.

Tonight following the airing of the “When The Lights Come On” episode of Superman & Lois, The CW has released a trailer for the seventh episode of the final season which is called “A Regular Guy.” If the patterns of the last few weeks continue as they have been, we should have a description for Episode #4.7 sometime on Tuesday or Wednesday.

In this episode, we see a slightly new Superman costume, but moreso, we learn that Clark wants to “put the genie back in the bottle” when it comes to people knowing that he is Superman. You can find the trailer below, and if you’ve just finished “When The Lights Come On” and want to discuss it with other fans, fly on over to our Superman & Lois forum!

Season four of SUPERMAN & LOIS picks up right where last season left off: with Superman (Tyler Hoechlin) and Luthor’s monster locked in a ferocious, moon-wrecking battle, as Clark (Tyler Hoechlin) fights for his life against the seemingly unstoppable creature. Back on the ground, General Lane (guest star Dylan Walsh) struggles to stay alive after being kidnapped by Luthor’s henchmen, while Lois (Elizabeth Tulloch), Jordan (Alex Garfin), and Jonathan (Michael Bishop) race against time to rescue him. But standing in their way is Lex Luthor (Michael Cudlitz) himself, who has permanently moved to Smallville as the next step in his malicious plan to destroy Lois Lane. Meanwhile, Lana Lang (guest star Emanuelle Chriqui) uses her position as Mayor to fight back against Luthor’s schemes, a move which puts her in the sights of the most dangerous man in the world and threatens everything she holds dear. This includes her relationship with John Henry Irons (guest star Wolé Parks), who must put his Ironworks plans on hold and rejoin the DOD, now that General Lane is missing. But they aren’t the only duo in trouble, as Chrissy Beppo (guest star Sofia Hasmik) and Kyle Cushing (guest star Eric Valdez) face an uphill battle of their own, with countless roadblocks that threaten to ruin their future together. Amid all the chaos, Sarah Cortez (guest star Inde Navarette) and Natalie Irons (guest star Tayler Buck) also join the fight against Luthor, while both facing impossible decisions about their paths in life. And as Clark’s battle with the terrifying monster continues, Lois, her boys, and the world must face an unthinkable possibility: what if Superman never returns?

SUPERMAN & LOIS stars Tyler Hoechlin as Clark Kent/Superman, Elizabeth Tulloch as Lois Lane, Alex Garfin as Jordan Kent, Michael Bishop as Jonathan Kent, and Michael Cudlitz as Lex Luthor.

It’s the end of an era and you won’t want to miss it.
