A teaser trailer for the final season of The CW’s Supergirl finds Melissa Benoist’s titular DC hero facing off against Lex Luthor with the help of her Superfriends.
“Aliens shouldn’t be Earth’s saviors,” Lex says as the trailer begins. “I will destroy her.” Lex can be seen displaying super-strength while also wielding a Kryptonite ring, which immobilizes Supergirl in another scene.
The plan appears to be to strip Lex Luthor of his powers, in order to make him mortal again. As Lex gloats about doing what the Anti-Monitor could never do, and fix every planet in the Multiverse, he receives a striking punch to the face from his sister Lena. Supergirl co-showrunner Jessica Queller previously revealed that Lena Luthor will officially be brought into Supergirl’s circle of friends, which may spell bad news for her brother Lex.
A synopsis for the premiere of Season 6, titled “Rebirth,” can be found below.
