“Deus Lex Machina” is the title of the next new episode of Supergirl, heading our way on April 26… and it also happens to be directed by Supergirl herself, Melissa Benoist!



The CW today released a trailer for the episode so we can get some visual clues of how this is going to look! Only a few more weeks and Supergirl will be back, people! Before the trailer, though, this is how the episode is described:


SUPERGIRL RETURNS APRIL 26TH FOR THE LAST EPISODES OF SEASON FIVE FILMED BEFORE COVID-19 CRISIS


MELISSA BENOIST MAKES HER DIRECTORIAL DEBUT – Lex (guest star Jon Cryer) proceeds to lay an intricate plan to bring Lena (Katie McGrath) closer to him, defeat Leviathan’s latest attack, and pit Supergirl (Melissa Benoist) and team against Leviathan. It is also revealed how Lex came into power after Crisis. Melissa Benoist directed the episode with story by Lindsay Sturman and teleplay by Katie Rose Rogers & Brooke Pohl (#517). Original airdate 4/26/2020.

FINALLY! I can't wait for her directing debut. I guess they will have special effects done by then, I guess with the social distancing, they'd had to do them much slower than normal, than in a studio with several people.

Yay, Melissa got to direct her episode. 

[Trinity]

This explains why Melissa didn't have much of a role in the previous episode. She had to prep for her directing debut.

I can't wait to see it.

[Tim]

Me too.

Her directing debut will be quite fun to see.

I'll be interested in how Lex's story ends, if the DEO is out of his control somehow, and he moves back to Metropolis for Superman and Lois. I'm sure that is what they'll do, as I'm sure fans will be screaming if they didn't.

I'm dying to see Jon and Tyler in a scene together. Guess, that will have to wait for the series of Superman and Lois.

[Tim]

Can't wait to see the episode.

This episode has been pushed back another week, now airing May 3rd, not the previously said April 26th. I'll bet special effects have taken longer to do, and are not ready, I'm assuming the process is longer since they can't have so many people in the studio at once, so slower process.

Better late than never.
