EXECUTIVE PRODUCER KELLY SOUDERS:
"Premieres and finales are really like trying to get a movie off the ground. We did several different versions of the premieres, so [the story] was broken several times. And the crew again pulled off a megamovie for television!"
"This is Clark's last journey, so it's a pretty big thing to make that last step to putting the Superman persona into place. There'll be a lot of levity and a lot of fun this season, but there's also going to be some pretty monumental moments."
"We'd love to have Michael [Rosenbaum] back, there's no question about that. It's out there. We just love him and love his performance. But we also know that Lex Luthor goes on in history, and we really felt that whether he was a part of it or not, the Lex story needed to come back on some level for the final season."
"That kiss at the end of last season [between Lois and Clark] was a game changer, and when we pick up this season the game keeps changing—and it changes pretty rapidly in the first handful of episodes. Lois and Clark's relationship gets pushed down the field with some pretty big plays. I would be a very rabid viewer the first half of the season if that's what you're looking for—I wouldn't wait until the very end to tune in."
EXECUTIVE PRODUCER BRIAN PETERSON:
"It's both ends of the spectrum. On one hand, he's stepping into the light and a lot more heroic, and on the other hand he's facing this huge villain in Darkseid. So it's this huge push and pull between the light and the dark."
"We did draw on some inspiration from different storylines [regarding Lex Luthor], the mythology that preexisted in the comics, taking a couple ideas here and there. Hopefully, it will be a really satisfying payoff to that character in this final season."
On Clark Flying: "Wow, I have to say, the number of times we get asked that question...You know what, we're still building the second half of the season, so we'll have to see where that goes."
