The sons of Superman are officially described as: Jonathan (Elsass) is clean-cut, modest and kind-hearted, with an aw-shucks attitude that somehow doesn’t seem dated.

The leaks also offer Superman & Louis will focus on Lois and Clark dealing with the stress, pressures and complexities of being working parents in today’s society, though it’s said while Lois works at the Daily Planet, Clark was recently laid off.
