As the future of Superman & Lois hangs in the balance, The CW's top entertainment exec is teasing that the series' upcoming Season 3 finale will likely leave fans wanting more. [pmc_inline_gallery]

"The ending this season is amazing," network president Brad Schwartz gushed to TVLine Thursday at The CW's fall schedule presser in New York. "You've got some Lex Luthor in there.... I don't want to give any spoilers, but the end of the season is great — and it's got a bit of a cliffhanger."

Schwartz' finale tease came just moments after he weighed in on the show's very uncertain fate, acknowledging to reporters that while Superman & Lois remains creatively "very strong," it's "expensive [and] doesn't make money for us."

What's more, Schwartz noted, "We don't have the rights to the prior seasons. You need to have a library [for people to find a show]... and the prior seasons are [on HBO Max]."

A decision on whether Superman & Lois will live to see a fourth season (as well as the fate of fellow bubble shows Gotham Knights and All American: Homecoming) will be made "sooner [rather] than later," Schwartz promised. (Keep tabs on TVLine's Renewal Scorecard for all the latest intel on pickups/cancellations.)

Superman & Lois' season (or series?) finale is set to air Tuesday, June 27.
