Unlikely BFF alert: Kara Zor-El and… Lex Luthor’s kid sis?!
Katie McGrath (Merlin, Dracula) has landed the coveted recurring role of Lena Luthor on Supergirl, TVLine has learned exclusively.
Beautiful, powerful, and enigmatic, Lena arrives in National City on the heels of brother Lex’s incarceration (holy Batman v. Superman continuity!) hoping for a fresh start. Lena has taken over as CEO of her family’s billion-dollar-tech company, Luthor Corp, which has been tarnished by Lex’s evil infamy. Her goal? To re-brand the empire as a force for good. Lena wants to be seen as her own person, separate from her brother. Kara is drawn into Lena’s sphere and must determine if she is friend or foe.
