Superman & Lois will see a significant recast in its upcoming third season. Jordan Elsass, the actor behind young Jonathan Kent, has left the superhero series just weeks ahead of the start of production. The actor did not return to the Vancouver set by the deadline set for the cast.
Per Deadline, a statement from Warner Bros TV said the following:
Jordan Elsass has notified the Studio that he will not be returning to Superman & Lois for season three due to personal reasons. The role of Jonathan Kent will be recast.
The young actor has previously mentioned mental health issues on social media, but it’s unclear what the reason is for his exit from the show. There is conflicting information about whether he quit or was let go.
Starring Tyler Hoechlin, Elizabeth Tulloch, Alexander Garfin, Erik Valdez, Inde Navarrette, Wolé Parks, Adam Rayner. Dylan Walsh, and Emmanuelle Chriqui, the Superman & Lois series follows Clark Kent and Lois Lane as they raise their twin sons in Smallville. One of their sons develops superpowers like his dad, and the family now has a new Fortress of Solitude.
The series is set to return at midseason. A premiere date will be announced by The CW later.
