April 11, 2017: Katie McGrath Talks About Lena Luthor on "Supergirl"

TVline.com caught up with actress Katie McGrath to discuss her role as Lena Luthor on the "Supergirl" TV series, her character's relationship with Kara/Supergirl, and working with Rahul Kohli for the upcoming new episode. Here's a few excerpts from the interview...

As Lena reconnects with Jack, Kara (played by Melissa Benoist) gets to investigating one of them...?

There is the release of some new technology that to Kara seems a bit suspect and seems to be connected to a few dastardly dealings going on. She's attempting to investigate it, on one hand, because journalistically she thinks that it's interesting. And then on the other hand, she's investigating it because she's worried about me as her friend. So, there's both of those going on.

Kara and Lena appear to be the best of friends on the show at the moment... What might Kara's investigation do to that dynamic?

I can't give away the ending. [Laughs] But ultimately, we've spent 18 episodes over the season building a friendship between the two of them, and it's not going to be able to be destroyed in one episode. That's one of the things I'm most proud of actually on this show, and I didn't think that's where it was going to go, because when I came in, I only came in for a few episodes. And [the friendship] has slowly and very realistically, I think, built up over this season. We've all put a lot of work into it and I'm glad that they're taking the time to get there, and keeping it.
