Ever since Barry Allen ran so fast that he appeared on Earth 38, fans have wondered, where is Kara Zor-El on other Earths? We were treated to the first doppleganger of Kara in the biggest superhero crossover event in television history last year on Crisis on Earth-X! That said, one doppleganger has stood out among all others, that of course is Kara Zor-L aka Powergirl! Well today, we can finally say fans are going to meet the famous alternate version of Supergirl and in a BIG way! Many sites have been reporting lately that a season 4 is just on the horizon. We've learned that the delay for the announcement is due to one single factor. This next part does pain us to say, but, Melissa Benoist is moving on from Supergirl, exiting before season 4. We can't really blame her as her talents and her reputation outside of the superhero community have been so stellar that a move to bigger projects was her only next step.
Before we start to examine what this might mean for the end of season 3, (likely Supergirl's death saving the world), we are learning now that Gemma Atkinson, who originally read for the role of Supergirl, has been tapped to take the lead for the show in season 4! She will reveal herself in an upcoming episode as Powergirl from Earth 2. She will arrive on the planet via an accident that she and special guest star Jay Garrick (John Wesley Shipp) cause when the two try to return to Earth One to help Barry and team with their problem with The Thinker. Not much else is known but we've heard rumors that Karen will establish her trademark on Earth 38 almost immediately with the help of Lena Luthor and run a division of L Corp specifically known as Star Industries!
What lays in store for Kara Zor-El for the rest of this season and when Kara Zor-L appears is still not known but this all but confirms a season 4 is guaranteed! While again, it will be very difficult for us to imagine the show without Melissa Benoist who has been the very definition of Supergirl, we are excited to welcome Gemma Atkinson to the role of Powergirl and see where this show will go with the titular character! Of course, if you believe all of this, then there is a bridge I would like to sell you in China! By now, if you haven't figured it out . . . April Fools!

I have not been exposed to your pranks in earlier years (or, I can't remember them). Probably why.
Anyways, very well done! :) The relief we felt and the idea of how we would feel if Melissa were to actually leave the show so early in the series were worth being pranked.
BUT this article is clearly not fake news, as it declares itself as fake at the end. Real fake news insists it is true (if you see what I mean!).
We have not yet lost the freedom to have fun. I am sure Kara would fight for that as well as for truth.
Consider me fooled
