ABOUT SUPERGIRL 6:

Supergirl season six’s plot, cast, and production have been largely well-received, with critics praising the show’s focus on Kara Danvers as Supergirl. Plot threads will be coming to a head in this new series of episodes, including an exploration of her family history and some timely subject matter following Charlottesville last year. The response from fans has been positive, too, and the show has even gained a new following of LGBTQ viewers who identify with Kara’s journey.

The Plot:

Kara Danvers will be teaming up with a new secret weapon. According to Deadline, the CW show has cast April Parker Jones as Colonel Haley for season six of Supergirl. She’ll play an Air Force officer who’s stationed at National City and “wants nothing more than to get out from under her commanding officer’s shadow.”

The sixth season of Supergirl has seen the introduction of both old foes and new, as well as Kara finally getting to explore her family history on Earth. One episode, in particular, focused heavily on anti-Black sentiment, a timely topic for many following the events of Charlottesville last year.

Mehcad Brooks is confirmed to be returning as James Olsen, who’ll be a series regular for the sixth season. David Harewood will not return in his role of J’onn J’onzz, and there have been no announcements about which characters will show up or what they might do now that he’s gone.

Production:

Filming for the sixth season of Supergirl commenced on September 25, 2018, and has been completed as of February 18, 2019. The show is expected to return in October 2021 with thirteen episodes.

Expectations:

With David Harewood confirmed not to be returning, it’s unclear who will take up his role of J’onn. Supergirl has been renewed for a sixth season, and the cast is returning with new faces such as Nicole Maines.
