Upcoming Season 6 to be the last for CW's Supergirl

Supergirl is all set to bid adieu to fans as the show comes to an end with Season 6. The production for the last season will begin soon.

The production of Supergirl's season 6 that will soon begin filming has been announced to be the last season of the series. The Arrowverse series which has been running for a long-time will come to end with this season during CW's midseason lineup. While the network did not specify the reason to end the show, it is said premier along with the midseason lineup in 2021.

Scheduled to begin earlier, the production of the series was also delayed due to the limitations brought upon by the pandemic. Another reason for the delay was the show's lead Melissa Benoist aka Supergirl announcing her pregnancy and becoming a (Super)mom. The series will begin filming in Vancouver next week while complying with SAG’s testing guidelines.

Repost from from @melissabenoist “To say it has been an honor portraying this iconic character would be a massive understatement. Seeing the incredible impact the show has had on young girls around the world has always left me humbled and speechless. She’s had that impact on me, too. She’s taught me strength I didn’t know I had, to find hope in the darkest of places, and that we are stronger when we’re united. What she stands for pushes all of us to be better. She has changed my life for the better, and I’m forever grateful. I’m so excited that we get to plan our conclusion to this amazing journey, and I cannot wait for you to see what we have in store. I promise we’re going to make it one helluva final season. ♥️ el mayarah 💪”
