The future of 'MY ADVENTURES WITH SUPERMAN' Season 4 is uncertain.
Cartoon Network President Michael Ouweleen says “we don’t know yet” when asked about another season:
"Season 3 is doing great. This started before Peter [Safran] and James [Gunn] came in, so we need to hear from them about it. It cohered with what they were doing. It was already in the works, and they looked at it, and they were like, ‘This is fine. Keep going.’ but we’re letting them kind of drive DC. It’s their job now, right? So, we’ll see.”
