Promos dont lie: Alura Zor-El is alive!
Not only that, but Karas mother, Alura (Erica Durance), is still alive!
Now its unfolding for me, the capacity with which I help, and its pretty exciting.

Argo City still exists.
Theyve been on the edge of destruction countless times and sacrificed again and again for it.
So its been a war-torn time.

Shes trying to put the pieces together and find out what she can do to help her.
And of course, it comes down to the big black rock.
Weve really only gotten to know the hologram version of Alura.
But of course, shes real, and because shes changed so much, shes much more relatable.
What kind of dynamic will Kara and Alura have, considering her daughter is all grown up now?
I know for sure that that is there, but its not the person that you sent away.
Its a whole different evolution of the daughter she had hoped to see, had hoped would exist.
Karas become so much more than she even imagined she would be.
But shes leaned that at a great cost.
Shes not the young girl that she sent away.
Thats a little bit of the loss, that you lose that control over where that child is going.
She may not be able to help her.
She gets behind her, and they go on this journey together.
Is there talk of having these Kryptonians come to Earth?This season?
Theres always talk of everything.
Thats what I love about doing shows like this.
Never say never, right?
Its pretty fun, as an actor.
You never quite know what exactly youre getting when you sign on.
Will you be back next season?Well, I am always grateful for work.
I will say that, right?
I think theres so much that they could do with her if they needed to.
Shes an important character, just to reflect off of Supergirl and her mother and all of those things.
Whether they can fit her into the mix, well see.
Yeah, its a bit likeTheTwilight Zone.
Its a little odd, just like talking about Clarks name and this and that.
And of course, its a completely different world and zone.
This story doesnt have a Lois Lane yet.
So yeah, I look forward to it.
So well see where we go.
