It’s official—the Arrowverse is flying off into the sunset. The CW just dropped the emotional final trailer for Superman & Lois, with the series finale set to air Monday, December 2nd. After over a decade of action-packed storytelling, this iconic chapter of superhero TV is coming to a close, and fans are feeling all the feels.
The 90-second trailer opens with Clark Kent (Tyler Hoechlin) asking the question on everyone’s mind: “What do you think Superman and Lois Lane will be remembered for?” Lois Lane (Elizabeth Tulloch) delivers the perfect reply: “Truth and justice,” while Clark adds, “and a better tomorrow.” It’s a poignant send-off for a show—and an entire franchise—that’s given fans countless memorable moments.
The finale promises an epic showdown between Superman and Lex Luthor (Michael Cudlitz). The stakes couldn’t be higher as Superman faces the fallout of his battle with Doomsday, with nothing left in the tank to take on Luthor’s power armor. Meanwhile, the story of Clark training his sons to carry on his legacy remains up in the air, adding even more weight to the final episode.
While Superman & Lois largely stood apart from the rest of the Arrowverse, its finale represents the closing chapter of a groundbreaking franchise. What began with Arrow in 2012—starring Stephen Amell as the vigilante Green Arrow—blossomed into a sprawling universe that included The Flash, Supergirl, Legends of Tomorrow, Black Lightning, and Batwoman. The Arrowverse’s interconnected storytelling, fan-favorite crossovers, and rich character arcs became a haven for DC fans, especially during a rocky time for the DCEU on the big screen.
Introduced in Supergirl during the Crisis on Infinite Earths crossover, Superman & Lois was intended to be a cornerstone of the Arrowverse. However, pandemic restrictions and budget cuts left the show in its own continuity. While the Arrowverse began to wrap up with the finales of Arrow, Black Lightning, Supergirl, and The Flash, the end of Superman & Lois is truly the last bow for this beloved era of TV superheroes.
Superman & Lois concludes Monday, December 2nd, at 8 p.m. ET on The CW, with the episode available to stream the next day on The CW app. This finale is more than just the end of a show—it’s the end of an era.
