Superman & Lois: Bitsie Tulloch on Season 4 Uncertainty & James Gunn

The Elizabeth “Bitsie” Tulloch panel at the recent Superman Celebration was full of insights about Superman & Lois and teasers for Season 4 — you can read more of our coverage of the event here. One aspect we did not cover, though, was Tulloch discussing the uncertainty about whether there would be a Season 4 or not — and what she thinks of James Gunn having a new Superman movie in 2025 which will star Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane.

“We did sort of end early,” Tulloch admitted, before heaping praise on the next director to bring Superman to the screen once Superman & Lois has concluded. “I’ve met James Gunn. I adore him. I think he’s really smart. I think he’s a wonderful visionary, and I’m looking forward to seeing his Superman movie, and I’m looking forward to seeing Rachel Brosnahan, who’s going to be the next Lois Lane,” Bitsie said, acknowledging that all of these actors are part of a line, and there will be another Lois Lane after Brosnahan, just like there were Loises before her, and affirming that there’s always been a reverence to previous Lois Lanes in her performance.

Tulloch talked about how at the previous year’s Superman Celebration, Tyler Hoechlin was on stage and very nervous, because at the time, he did not know if the show would be renewed for Season 4 or not. “We couldn’t believe that we didn’t know that late,” she recalled. “My husband and I were in we’re still in Vancouver, just because our daughter was in preschool. and I’m like, ‘I can’t believe they’re telling us this late~ Are we getting renewed or not?’ It started to feel like that might be it, which was a bummer, because you all saw the end of Season 3 with Doomsday, and then it just goes to black, and I was just thinking, ‘my God, if that’s the end of this series, that’s so annoying. More annoying than the Sopranos ending or the LOST ending. It’s just this’!”

Eventually, Bitsie got a call from a producer at Greg Berlanti’s production studio, who assured her that everyone loves the show, and it will be back for a smaller, 10-episode season. “It was exciting being able to finish the show,” she said.
