Superman & Lois: Alex Garfin Clears Up Jonathan Kent Recasting Rumors
Fans of The CW's Tyler Hoechlin & Elizabeth Tulloch-starring Superman & Lois learned earlier this month that series star Jordan Elsass would not be returning to the role of Jonathan Kent for the third season. Warner Bros. TV's statement on the decision had very little to offer aside from the basics: "Jordan Elsass has notified the Studio that he will not be returning to 'Superman & Lois' for Season 3 due to personal reasons. The role of Jonathan Kent will be recast." Shortly after, Elsass addressed his departure in a Cameo video he recorded for a fan that was then posted on Twitter (more on that below). Since that time, there have been some rumblings that the DCU series had already found its new Jonathan in Julian Daniel Rees. The "evidence"? That Rees' Instagram account was being followed by both the show's official account as well as series star Alex Garfin. Just one small problem with the theory? Garfin has taken to Twitter to explain that it's much ado about nothing…
Here's a look at Garfin's tweets clarifying the matter (including some photographic "evidence" that they've known each other for some time now):
"It's been a tough few weeks, as you might imagine, with everything going on with the show. It's sad… it's a real shame. I know that I was pumped for Season 3, for sure, but what are you going to do? Anyway, mental health is definitely 100 percent priority. It's pinnacle. It's got to take precedence. And mine has been … the last couple of years … it's been rough," Elsass shared in the video. After taking some time for himself, Elsass is going to consider what the future holds for him- even if that means leaving acting. "I need some time to myself. I'm still debating whether I'm even going to act for a while. I may go in a different direction. I know that's definitely going to be disappointing to some people," he added.
Here's a look back at the Season 2 trailer & overview for The CW's Superman & Lois:
