SUPERMAN & LOIS Season 3’s First Week Back Filming “Closer” Premiere in Vancouver
Superman & Lois had a busy first week back in Vancouver filming its season 3 premiere titled “Closer” directed by The Flash’s Tom Cavanagh.
Bitsie Tulloch aka Lois Lane shared a photo of the script cover for 3×01, which I reverse imaged like we were still in Bizarro World.

Look at the matching curls on the rebooted Kent twins.
And the new guy has game.
Michael Bishop’s casting follows the news out of Dragon Con that Chad Coleman who played Tobias Church on Arrow will play the Big Bad in Superman & Lois season 3 — Bruno Manheim, the head of Intergang.

In DC lore, Lois Lane has her run-ins with Bruno Manheim and Intergang, while covering the Metropolis underworld for the Daily Planet. Their introduction to Superman & Lois in season 3 could shift some filming back to downtown Vancouver as urban Metropolis.
In the season 2 finale, John Diggle (David Ramsey) told John Henry Irons (Wolé Parks) in the Smallville Diner that Bruno Manheim and the Intergang killed this Earth’s John Henry Irons.
What we always try to do is set up a villain so that he or she feels like they’re going after one specific person on our show, but then it spreads and you see how it affects everybody. So, yeah. There’s going to be a history with everybody, with this guy. It’s not just with John Henry Irons. – showrunner Todd Helbing to the Krypton Site.
