Kevin Smith Returns to Direct in Season 4

We felt so clever last time Kevin Smith directed an episode of Supergirl calling it his Hat Trick of the year! In this case, Hat Trick was referring to scoring three goals in a game. But now that he is confirmed to be directing an episode in season four, we did our research. Kevin Smith is going for a Sombrero of directing Supergirl episodes! For those that don't know a Sombrero is the term used when a bowler gets four strikes in a row! That's the dedication you can rely on here at Supergirl.tv! His episodes have generally been very well done and written. Smith revealed the news on his podcast #FatmanonBatman, with guest host and writer of Supergirl Eric Carassco! You'll love this episode as it has a lot of Supergirl insider fun. You can listen in here (language warning)!

I do wish they would get proper directors like Larry Tang or Lexi Alexander who did such great work in S1. I get that the cast think Kevin is "fun" but he just comes across like a fanboy, and not someone with discipline or much of a vision for what the show could be.

But her Kara scenes can’t have been shot yet. So a whole ep can not really has been done yet i think.

Its impossible for ANY of the episodes to be in the can since Melissa hasn't filmed anything yet for this season.


Not necessarily. New SG suit and stunt double filling in for Melissa for episode filming thus far, which reportedly won't require a major presence from her. So, principal filming is already done. A few sequential inserts aren't being counted here.

I was looking at an interview Kevin Smith did with the SuperGirl Cast at the SDCC and I was surprised to see that he is indeed able to carry on a conversation without the use of the 4 letter words. The interview was quite interesting. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YnOlLdcHuUQ

I wonder if it's the third episode Man of Steel, where they may be a rumored Superman return.

We would have already seen pics of him on set if it was an episode thus far.

'fraid not. Some click bait sites are erroneously reporting that Smith is directing episode 4.04....which is wrong, since production has been filming that for about a week now. He's actually scheduled to film episode 4.08 (which will be the one prior to the Batwoman crossover) in September.

Also, episode 4.03 should be 'in the can' at this point (since it's the one they started film work on first). But it also seems more likely that click-bait sites are deliberately misreading the episode's title for the overly curious. :)

Kevin Smith is a good Director - didn't listen to much of the video since he has a problem getting beyond the use of 4 letter words. However, he is good at what he does and it is good to see him back.
