Bizarro is coming to National City.
"Supergirl" executive Andrew Kreisberg has confirmed the appearance of Bizarro later this season on the CBS superhero drama. Whether Kara (Melissa Benoist) faces off against Bizarro Superman or Bizarro Girl, he didn't specify and casting for the role hasn't be announced.
"We've got the Toyman coming up, we got Bizarro," Kreisberg said on Kevin Smith's podcast, "Fatman on Batman" (via Heroic Hollywood).
"Revenge" star Henry Czerny will play Winslow Schott Sr. aka Toyman in at least one episode this season. Schott is the estranged father of Winslow "Winn" Schott Jr. (Jeremy Jordan) who works with and (crushes hard on) Kara at CatCo. Toyman is a mad criminal genius who weaponizes toys to wreak destruction and revenge but is ultimately driven by one thing - the obsessive desire to reunite with his beloved son.
The remainder of "Supergirl" season one will also see the rise of DC supervillain Siobhan Smythe aka Silver Banshee (Italia Ricci), who will serve as a work foe for Kara and a nemesis for Supergirl. Benoist's real-life husband, Blake Jenner, will join as a possible love interest for Kara, and Emma Caulfield will join as DC Comics character Cameron Chase, a no holds barred FBI agent.
"Supergirl" will return from its winter hiatus on Monday, Jan. 4 at 8 p.m. on CBS.
