The CW has released a trailer for the upcoming sixth and final season of Supergirl. The series ended in Season 5 with Kara Danvers / Supergirl (Melissa Benoist) and her Superfriends trying to stop a double threat on Lex Luthor (Jon Cryer), as well as Leviathan. Although the fight was unexpectedly interrupted due to the shutdown of the production of the coronavirus pandemic, it is not over yet, and it appears that Supergirl and Lex are in an epic confrontation.

Last fall, it was announced that the long series would end with the next sixth season. Supergirl first debuted on CBS before moving on to CW. The final season of the series will consist of 20 episodes and will open on Tuesday, March 30 at 9 / 8c, briefly occupying the schedule currently filled by Superman & Lois.
“To say it was an honor to portray this iconic character would be a massive understatement. Seeing the incredible impact the series has had on girls around the world has always left me humble and speechless,” wrote Benoist on social media shortly after the broken news. “She had that impact on me too. She taught me a strength that I didn’t know she had, to find hope in the darkest places and that we are stronger when we are united. What she represents pushes us to be better. She changed my life for the better, and I am forever grateful. “
