Good news, DC fans. The CW’s Supergirl, the Melissa Benoist vehicle which recently wrapped up its sixth and final season, is coming to HBO Max on New Year’s Day. While this will come as a welcome post-Christmas present for Girl of Steel-loving subscribers to the WarnerMedia streaming service, it’s a big surprise as Supergirl was previously believed to be a Netflix exclusive for the next few years.

While all DC properties are ultimately owned by Warner, Supergirl has always had a home on Netflix as part of an old deal made between the two parties. What’s more, as per Deja View, legacy contracts made between WarnerMedia and Netflix stipulated that the latter company would retain the streaming rights to any show for five years after it obtained the final season. Well, clearly that’s not the case for Supergirl anymore, so it appears that another deal has been brokered.
