“We thought long and hard about it and really arced out our season around that journey.”

“How do we tell stories that are grounded and resonate when you have spectacle the size of Superman?

We’re doing things that we haven’t done on our show yet.”

“In the comics and at the core of his character, he’s so hopeful.

We thought that’s what made it a really interesting story.”
