'Supergirl' Exec Producer Weighs In On Tyler Hoechlin's Superman Storyline

Tyler Hoechlin gets some new armor for his super suit while shooting new scenes for Supergirl on Wednesday (August 3) in Vancouver, Canada.

Speaking during Comic-Con, the show’s executive producer Sarah Schechter opened up about how season two will open up not just a new story about Kara but a different story about Clark Kent as well.

“There’s nothing more complicated than being a thirteen-year-old girl on any planet, so to be thirteen and to lose everyone you know and everything — I mean, she’s a refugee and she has the depth of her backstory,” Sarah shared. “Clark grew up here. He was a baby here. For him, the tragedy is that he doesn’t have any memories of that planet, of where he’s from. But she does, and I think it informs her in a really interesting way.”

She added, “It just gives us a different window into Kara and frankly, into Clark — a Superman that people haven’t met before is a Superman who has Supergirl in his life. So I think it’s fun to see both of them.”
