The CW has found its Jonathan Kent. Australian actor Michael Bishop has been tapped to play the role in the upcoming third season of the CW’s Superman & Lois in a recasting. He replaces Jordan Elsass, who played Jonathan in the first two seasons and revealed he would not be returning for Season 3. Jonathan Kent is the son of Clark/Superman (Tyler Hoechlin) and Lois’ (Elizabeth Tulloch).

Bishop recently made his American film debut with his breakout lead role of DJ Maz in Disney Channel’s Original Movie Spin. His other recent credits include the role of Teddy in the Australian TV series Grace Beside Me, a supporting role in the feature film Swinging Safari, lead roles in short films Shelter, Skin Like Bark, Detention, Pet Rock, Hunter and Gatherer and Indiana. Bishop is repped by Kimberly Kottwitz at Brave Artists Management and Gilchrist Management.

I do see a slight resemblance.

[Melinda Halliwell]

I've not heard of this actor before.

Being Australian he'll have to put on an American accent for the role no doubt.

Will he dye his hair blond or keep it brown and the producers explain the hair color change in terms of whatever plot happens concerning Jonathan?

I'm laughing slightly at the possible reason for the change in Jonathan only because when I've watched certain American soap opera clips on YouTube the explanations have been weird ones instead of something like a character having been a child who's now a teenager with an older actor/actress playing that person now.

He really looks like comic book Jon, and he looks a lot like he could be related to them so visually, this is a good casting, hopefully his acting is good as well.

[Squad 51]

Seems to be a new face. Well, it can be interesting.

[Tim]

Guess we'll have to wait and see how he does.

[Squad 51]

Exactly. We can only do that.

[SpnFanJackie]

He looks the part but can he act the part? Time will tell.

[Tim]

Yup.

[Dark Avenger]

Another Australian actor on The CW. I'll admit I've never heard of this guy before. Must be a new young actor breaking into Hollywood who moved from Australia.

Despite looking the part. Chemistry with the rest of the cast and acting the part means more to me than looking the part.

[Tim]

Yeah, we'll have to see how well he fits in.
