With the CW series Superman & Lois coming to an end, Tyler Hoechlin and Elizabeth Tulloch have expressed their desire to play another DC character in the future.
The 36-year-old actor has portrayed Clark Kent, aka Superman, since his 2016 debut in Supergirl, and has reprised his role across multiple CW Arrowverse shows, including Arrow, The Flash, Batwoman, and Legends of Tomorrow.
During his appearance at San Diego Comic-Con, Hoechlin revealed his desire to play another DC character. When asked about future roles, he mentioned the dark knight of the DC universe, Batman.
