Here’s Our First Look at SUPERGIRL’s President Lynda Carter

It’s a bird, it’s a plane, it’s Supergirl‘s President of the United States! The most powerful woman (that’s actually a human) has landed in National City to go toe-to-toe with Kara Zor-El in the upcoming third episode of the CBS-turned-CW series. And we’ve got your first look at just how impressive and imposing it is to have a universe where Wonder Woman is your POTUS.

Slated to first appear in the third episode of season two—”Welcome to Earth”—it looks as though the Secret Service is getting extra protection of the alien sort as things go a bit haywire in the search for a potential alien baddie.

From The CW:

An attack is made on the President (guest star Lynda Carter) as hot-button, alien vs. human rights issues heat up in National City.  Supergirl (Melissa Benoist) and the DEO are assigned to protect the President and bring in the responsible party.  Alex (Chyler Leigh) teams up with Detective Maggie Sawyer (Floriana Lima) to investigate the case while Kara searches for a recently escaped Mon-El (Chris Wood), who she fears may be the alien behind the assault.  Rachel Talalay directed the episode written by Jessica Queller and Derek Simon (#203).

The episode is slated to air on OCtober 24th, with the premiere of season two happening Monday night (tonight)!
