The Man of Steel is finally back on our screens.

As part of the Arrowverse universe, Superman & Lois is a new take on the story of Clark Kent and his true love, Lois Lane.

Starring Tyler Hoechlin as Superman and Elizabeth Tulloch as Lois, the series focuses on what comes next for the pair after their marriage and having two teenage sons together.

Heading back to Clark’s hometown of Smallville, the series remains grounded even with big storylines.

Be sure to read our review of the first season as it heads to UK screens, whilst RadioTimes.com has also pondered the meaning behind Superman & Lois’ timeslot in the BBC One schedules.

In the meantime, as the first run is now available to watch in its entirety on BBC iPlayer, many will be wondering how far away the new episodes are.

So, without further ado, here is all you need to know about Superman & Lois season 2.

Superman & Lois season 2 release date

Superman & Lois season 2 premieres in the US on The CW on January 11, 2022.

A UK release date has yet to be confirmed but we shall be sure to update this when it arrives.

As the first season was only just released in its entirety in the UK on BBC iPlayer and airing weekly on BBC One, we imagine it will be quite the wait until the second run finds its way to UK shores.

We will be sure to update you on the UK release date as soon as it is confirmed.
