He is expected to make his debut in episode 15, which will film in the new year.

Cryer played Lex Luthor’s nephew Lenny in the 1987 movie Superman IV: The Quest for Peace.

We are enormous fans of Jon Cryer, and he was instantly our dream actor to play the iconic role of Lex Luthor. Jon is a super-talent, and the fact that he played Lenny Luthor in Superman IV brings an added layer of legacy to his casting. We’re beyond thrilled to welcome Jon to the Supergirl family. — Co-Showrunners Robert Rovner and Jessica Queller.
