SUPERGIRL Season 2, Episode 5 Promo; "Crossfire" - James Olsen Becomes A Vigilante
We know that James Olsen will eventually suit up as The Guardian, but in this first look at next week's episode of Supergirl, we see the beginnings of the photographer's transformation into a vigilante.
Now that The CW has moved on from the romance between Kara Danvers and James Olsen, what is left to do with the character? Lucy Lane isn't around and the Girl of Steel doesn't really need his help now she's an experienced superhero, so Supergirl is taking the surprise decision to have him become a vigilante. In this first look at next week's instalment, we get a glimpse of him embarking on that path.
Supergirl (Melissa Benoist) must beat a ruthless new gang who has been armed with dangerous new alien technology. When Cadmus sends a video to the DEO, the team realizes Cadmus is the one staffing the criminals for a secret mission. Meanwhile, Kara (Melissa Benoist) gets Mon-El (Chris Wood) a job as an intern at CatCo, James makes an important decision and Lena (Katie McGrath) invites Kara to attend one her fundraisers. Glen Winter directed the episode written by Gabriel Llanas & Anna Musky-Goldwyn.
