Supergirl to cast a teenage Superman

November 25, 2015 by Gary Collinson

It looks like Superman is coming to CBS’ Supergirl series – well, kind of – with TV Line reporting that the show is looking to cast a teenage Kal-El.

According to the site, a casting notice is out for a 13-year-old actor “with future leading man looks” to play the young Boy of Steel in a potentially recurring role.

Kal-El is set to make his first appearance in episode thirteen of Supergirl, with a series of flashbacks “that establish the cherished bond between him and Kara”.
