Hoechlin, who fans know from the supernatural drama Teen Wolf, will put on the red cape for the second season of the show, which has since moved to The CW.
Hoechlin told fans at Comic-Con that he is taking his responsibility as the Man of Steel seriously.
"I know the character represents so much to so many people," he said. "There is a lot of responsibility with this character. I'm really excited."
Season 2 will feature Hoechlin's Superman paying a visit to National City to visit his sister, Kara/Supergirl, played by Melissa Benoist, and will premiere on Oct. 10 at 8 p.m.
