It was just always a surprise to me."

My mom treats it like it’s an autograph.
Below, Buck breaks down Nat’s heroic new role and more.
TAYLER BUCK:I know the name, which is really, really awesome.
I don’t think I’m allowed to say that yet though.
It’s so cool.
I think it’ll be held for a later season.
It definitely has not come up this season.
I think there’s too much to focus on more than giving her a superhero name.
There are Easter eggs that are pulled from the comics.
I don’t want to say it, but it’s super cool.
Luckily for me we have an amazing stunt team.
But it’s awesome seeing them work in our suits.
It’s like an out-of-body experience seeing myself as I’m watching it behind the scenes.
It definitely changes their dynamic.
The fact that he even allowed her to suit up already changes the dynamic.
It goes from “You’re my little girl, you’re my child.
you’re able to’t do this.
you could’t put yourself in danger.
I need to protect you” to “I guess you’re not a little girl anymore.
You’re still my little girl, but maybe you’ve earned that responsibility.
You’ve thought about this and you’re old enough to take on that responsibility.
And who am I to hold you back?”
She definitely put a lot of thought into it.
[Making the suit indestructible] was the backup plan.
So it’s win-win.
She’s come so far, and I think she’ll only continue to grow as a person.
What’s next for Nat as we get closer to the season finale?
Stubborn as she is, I’m sure she’s going to give a shot to help him.
We’ll have to find out.
Everyone has to take on more responsibility, and we’ll see how that plays out.
The season is coming to an end, and so we jam-packed a lot of things in there.
Things are heating up, and you definitely won’t be disappointed.
Superman & Loisairs Tuesdays at 8 p.m. ET/PT on the CW.
