Superman & Lois S02: Sofia Hasmik on Chrissy Beppo/Lois Lane Dynamic

After yesterday's interesting teases from showrunner Todd Helbing involving the season's "multiple villains," The CW is back to profiling the cast of the Tyler Hoechlin and Elizabeth Tulloch-starring Superman & Lois to learn what their biggest takeaways were from the previous season and what viewers can expect during the second season. So far, we've heard about Hoechlin's Superman/Clark Kent, Tulloch's Lois Lane, Dylan Walsh's Samuel Lane, Emmanuelle Chriqui's Lana, and Erik Valdez's Kyle. This time around, it's Sofia Hasmik's aka Chrissy Beppo turn in the spotlight as their on-screen alter-ego teams up with Lois to bring The Smallville Gazette back to life. Having spent most of their life idolizing Lois, how will that dynamic change now that Chrissy and Lois are equal partners?

Here's a look at what Hasmik had to share about the first season as well as what lies ahead for Chrissy when The CW's Superman & Lois returns for its second season on Tuesday, January 11 (joined that night by the debuting Naomi):

Speaking with SFX Magazine exclusively & reported via its sister site GamesRadar+, Helbing let viewers know that things this season are going to kick off right from the opener. "The fans are going to know the path we are going down really quickly. In a really good way, the Superman issue he has is driving the issues he has as a dad," the showrunner explained. "This is a particular villain, that the more I talk about the more people are going to figure out who it is. But Superman is dealing with an enemy that is going to be a massive headache for him." But if you're thinking there's only one big bad to contend with this season, think again. "There are multiple villains, really. Both villains affect Clark and Lois personally. We start out with one villain that is really more Superman while setting up the Lois villain," Helbing teased. "They are not working together, but they hand off in a cool way this season. One of them comes to the forefront and, in a lot of ways, is more powerful than the other one. It will take the whole team, in a different way than last year, to stop this person." With the series set to leap tall, intense storylines in a single bound starting January 11th, here's a look at the newest trailer for the second season of The CW's Superman & Lois:

Superman & Lois Season 2 Episode 1 "What Lies Beneath": GREGORY SMITH ("EVERWOOD") DIRECTS THE SEASON TWO PREMIERE – Season two opens with the dust still settling in Smallville following the shocking outcome of the confrontation between Tal-Rho (Adam Rayner, "Tyrant") and Superman (Tyler Hoechlin). Lois (Elizabeth Tulloch) and Clark struggle as a couple while Chrissy (Sofia Hasmik) adjusts to running The Smallville Gazette with Lois. Jonathan (Jordan Elsass) faces new challenges on the football field, and secrets threaten to destroy Jordan (Alex Garfin) and Sarah's (Inde Navarrette) growing relationship. Meanwhile, Kyle (Erik Valdez) grows concerned over Lana's (Emmanuelle Chriqui) involvement with a new mayoral candidate. Lastly, John Henry Irons (Wole Parks) and his daughter Natalie (Tayler Buck) attempt to make this new Earth their home. The episode was directed by Gregory Smith and written by Brent Fletcher & Todd Helbing.
