The pair of fledgling Supes helped , and ‘s second season will help bridge the streaming gap before the flagship show’s fifth and final season. The scheduling of ‘s production did get pushed back (amid news of star Chance Perdomo’s accidental death ) a few months but is currently roaring.
Significant script rewrites are also understood to have happened to modify the original plan with Chance’s character, Andre Anderson. Let’s dig into what to expect on that subject and other plans for the upcoming season. Plot ‘s first season filled the gap in between seasons, and presumably, that will happen with ‘s second season before returns in 2026.
And currently, there’s plenty going on in realm with the vigilante group detained and Billy Butcher (Karl Urban) last seen heading into the wind with his tentacled Supe powers and the Supe virus in tow. Whether Butcher pops up in again (he did, after all, uncover the virus’ existence on Godolkin U’s campus) hasn’t yet been revealed. Yet following ‘ fourth season finale, Vought International to Cate and Sam “on a successful first mission” while noting that they’re headed back to classes.

Some viewers on social media have noted that Andre strangely appeared to be operating a cell phone in that scene, which suggested the possibility that the scene was not set in reality, although whatever was going on there might have been abandoned with the script rewrites spurred on by Perdomo’s death. Additionally, Kripke recently announced that another spin off will happen soonish.
That would be , a prequel series that stars Jensen Ackles (as Soldier Boy) and Aya Cash (as Stormfront), and that has been long in the making and was greenlit by Amazon after ‘s success.

After all, Soldier Boy has already popped into as a figment , and Stormfront is no longer alive in the current and timeline.
Cast Returning cast members include Jaz Sinclair (Marie), Lizze Broadway (Emma/Cricket), London Thor and Derek Luh (Jordan), Asa Germann (Sam), and Maddie Phillips (Cate).
