Other newcomers this season include Floriana Lima as the crimebusting Maggie Sawyer and ian gomez as newsman Snapper Carr. Aside from Superman, however, the biggest addition is the original DC TV heroine herself – Wonder Woman Lynda Carter – as the President of the united States.

“Ahhhh! it’s amazing,” enthuses Benoist. “i haven’t met her yet, but i plan on picking her brain. i can’t wait to meet her. i’m psyched!”
