In the upcoming season of the show, he will go up against not just Supergirl (Melissa Benoist), but his own sister Lena (Katie McGrath).

Supergirl executive producers Robert Rovner and Jessica Queller announced: “We’re beyond excited to introduce… Lex Luthor to Supergirl and to weave him into our story this season. We’ve talked about having Lex on the show since its inception, and we’re excited to have him finally arrive.

“We can’t wait for him to shake things up in National City and watch him go toe to toe with not only Supergirl, but his sister Lena Luthor.”

Casting is currently underway for the role of DC’s notorious super-villain, so we do not yet know who will be taking on the infamous role.
