News about the upcoming episodes of "Supergirl" were recently revealed.
It was reported that the cast and executives of the new hit series "Supergirl" were present during the Television Critics Association Press Tour panel and were able to share some details about the episodes to come.
From the panel, it was revealed that fans have a lot to look forward to for the rest of the season. The panel teased the upcoming introduction of several new characters.
One of the characters expected to join the series is Indigo, who will be played by Laura Vandervoort. It was revealed that she will be playing a recurring role that will debut in the episode titled "For the Girl Who Has Everything."
According to BuddyTV, the executive producer of the series, Ali Adler, expressed her excitement for the new addition.
She said, "On set, we're so proud and excited to welcome in the role of Indigo, Laura Vandervoort, who had the role of Supergirl in Smallville, and we're just so excited to have her here on these stages."
Aside from the new characters, it was revealed that the upcoming episodes will be going deeper into the past of a certain character. Executive producer Andrew Kreisberg explained that Kara's co-worker Winn will soon be a major part of the story line.
He explained that his life will become more complicated when Henry Czerny's new character named Winslow Schott Sr will be introduced.
Jeremy Jordan also added, "We'll see that there's been some pretty crappy things that have happened to him in his past that have probably sort of almost stunted him, in a way, and so he has to learn how to get past them before he can kind of move forward to have any sort of meaningful relationship with anybody, whether it's friendship or more."
Adler also hinted that the upcoming episodes will portray Winn in a different light. She explained that he will begin looking like a hero as well.
The next episode of "Supergirl" season 1 , titled "Strange Visitor From Another Planet," airs on Monday, Jan. 25, on CBS.
