The Two and a Half Men alum has joined the cast of Warner Bros. Television superhero drama as the classic villain from the Superman comics. This marks his first TV series role since his work on CBS’ comedy, which aired from 2003 to 2015.

Entertainment Tonight confirms that Cryer has landed a recurring role and that he’ll first appear as Luthor in this season’s 15th episode. 

“We are enormous fans of Jon Cryer, and he was instantly our dream actor to play the iconic role of Lex Luthor,” said Supergirl executive producers Robert Rovner and Jessica Queller. “Jon is a super-talent, and the fact that he played Lenny Luthor in Superman IV brings an added layer of legacy to his casting. We’re beyond thrilled to welcome Jon to the Supergirl family.”

“I think we were lucky enough to have the opportunity to use him this season and he weaves into the story,” Rovner added of the decision to include Superman’s nemesis in the series. “He weaves into the narrative that we’re telling, so I think it’s a good opportunity to have him. And we would welcome him any time.

Supergirl airs Sundays on The CW.

After announcing the Charmed reboot lsat year as a prequel series to the 1998 original, CW has unveiled interesting details about the upcoming project.

CW has released an official description of the Charmed reboot: “This fierce, funny, feminist reboot of the original series centers on three sisters in a college town who discover they are witches. Between vanquishing supernatural demons, tearing down the patriarchy, and maintaining familial bonds, a witch’s work is never done.”

So apparently now, the reboot is about a trio of sibling witches but with a feminist twist. The network also dropped the prequel idea and the reboot will be set in present day. This sets the reboot up for the possibility of appearances by the original cast members.

Penning the script are writers Jessica O’Toole and Amy Rardin.

The show’s reboot is officially happening, which means that everyone’s favorite teenage witch is finally coming back to TV, but at Netflix instead of CW.

When the reboot was in its initial stages of development, the only network that was involved was CW. However, it was the streaming giant that announced that it will be the home for a small-screen adaptation of the graphic novel The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina.

Netflix confirmed that they handed out a two season, 20-episode straight-to-series order to a still untitled reboot. The network took to Twitter to announce the news writing, “Sabrina is coming to Netflix and she might just out-brood Jughead. Don’t @ me about talking cats (yet).”

Penning the script is chief creative officer Archie Comics Aguirre-Sacasa. It was said that this adaptation reimagine Sabrina “as a dark coming-of-age story that traffics in horror, the occult and, of course, witchcraft. Tonally in the vein of Rosemary’s Baby and The Exorcist, this adaptation finds Sabrina wrestling to reconcile her dual nature—half-witch, half-mortal—while standing against the evil forces that threaten her, her family and the daylight world humans inhabit.”

No word yet on who will play Sabrina, but an announcement is to be expected in the near future.
