The CW has released an action-packed new extended trailer for the upcoming fifth season premiere of Supergirl, offering a fresh look at what's to come in the season premiere as Kara (Melissa Benoist) finds herself up against a mysterious new supervillain in Midnight (Jennifer Cheon Garcia) and a possible friend-turned-foe in Lena Luthor (Katie McGrath).

The trailer also offers a first look at Kara getting into her kickass new suit after her original suit gets damaged on her latest mission with J'onn (David Harewood), Alex (Chyler Leigh), Brainy (Jesse Rath) and Dreamer (Nicole Maines).

Season three saw Supergirl stop Reign and the other Worldkillers’ threat to humanity and our planet, and in the process, Kara was shocked to find her mother Alura alive and living in a salvaged Argo City that survived the destruction of Krypton. Reconnecting with her past caused Kara to realize that her true home is now here on Earth, where big changes are taking place for her and all of her friends in National City – and also, it appears, for a doppelganger in Russia! Season four promises to be full of surprises, action, adventure and lots of big revelations for Supergirl, Alex, James, J’onn, Lena and Brainy.

Melissa Benoist as Kara Zor-El/Supergirl
Mehcad Brooks as James 'Jimmy' Olsen/Guardian
Chyler Leigh as Alexandra 'Alex' Danvers
Jeremy Jordan as Winslow 'Winn' Schott
David Harewood as J'onn J'onzz/Martian Manhunter

Oh God, not a nano-tech suit! WHY?

HeavyMetal4Life - 9/22/2019, 10:16 AM

@THEDARKKNIGHT1939 - she had a nano tech suit last season too sometimes...

I will give Lena around 5 episodes to pull herself together and grow up. And hope that while she's too busy hurting back her friend that she doesn't let her guard down for yet another villain, Leviathan here, to take her for a fool and make her give them what they want just like Rhea and Lex did.

J'onn was great last Season against Manchester Black (the only mistake in that was the rushed conclusion to it) so I am excited to see him against Malefic.

Glad to know it is Brainy who helped in redesigning the suit. I'll assume that just like the newest one can materialize then so could Mon-El's. It's a great suit.

Kinda sucks the cape got torn apart because it was the mantle in which Clark arrived on Earth in his pod.

Just wished they showed more of Nia in this teaser. Midnight looks dangerous and could be the best premiere villain since Metallo.
