Yesterday it was announced that former Teen Wolf star Tyler Hoechlin is set to portray Superman in the second season of the DC series Supergirl, and now the actor has taken to Twitter to share his excitement about taking on the iconic role of the Man of Steel…

Could not be more honored & humbled to be given the opportunity to play this incredible & beloved character. Can't wait to get to work!

Hoechlin will become the sixth actor to portray Kal-El in live-action on the small screen, the last being Tom Welling who starred in Smallville between 2001 and 2011.
