Per Deadline's Nellie Andreeva, this series and All American: Homecoming have been hit with a writers' room trim. This decision was only done after the WGA strike was concluded, hence the large gap between the June-July actor cast cuts.
“Disappointing news – due to budget cuts, I won’t be returning on staff at Superman & Lois for season 4,” he wrote on X. “Obviously this isn’t what I was hoping for, but after the cuts to cast and episode order, it’s no surprise either. My showrunners were in a difficult spot and I want to be clear they’ve handled it the best they could.”
I hear that, while he won’t be on staff next season, Mallinger has been assigned an episodic script which he will write as a freelancer. Of the other two writers impacted, I hear one opted not to renew his option to be on staff for the opportunity to direct an episode (having made his directorial debut on the show previously) and write a freelance episode.

Honestly, at this point, my expectations for Season 4 couldn't be lower.

With the mess behind the scenes, one can only hope for some kind of dignity in the end.
Wake me up at your own risk.

I think we were all expecting it, at this stage.
Let's just hope the Show will end without any major open plotlines.

According to CW Network's Entertainment Chief Brad Schwartz in his The Wrap interview:
No matter the administration, the Bat-Embargo tactics since the late '90s will never die.
Also, Season 4 is expected to air this Fall 2024, with the special effects being completed over the summer.

The irony is that they should have product synergy.

Yvone Chapman cast as Lex's right hand woman Amanda Mc Coy, some of you will remember her from the John Byrne era, she figured out Clark's identity fairly early on but Lex dismissed her findings as he couldn't see why Superman would hide among humans.
