    So, i was thinking

    when they end the smallville series all together, it would be a really good idea to remake the ORIGINAL SUPERMAN MOVIE with all of the SMALLVILLE characters; tom welling, michael rosenbaum, etc. because when clark finallly decides to accept his destiny it would show just yeah i think they should remake the superman movie as a smallville version

    if you think thats a good idea, please comment.

• ORIGINAL AND ADDITIONAL CAST

    Original cast

    "He hasn't been able to choose whether or not he has these abilities. All this responsibility has just been thrust on him, and he has to deal with it." Tom Welling on Clark Kent

    • Tom Welling as Clark Kent : A young man with superhuman abilities, who tries to find his place in life after being told he is an alien. He uses his abilities to help others in danger. Clark's problem in season one is not being able to share his secret with anyone. He just wants to be normal. Clark is afraid to open up to Lana, for fear that she will not accept him if she knows the truth. After months of scouting, Tom Welling was cast as Clark Kent. David Nutter was looking through pictures of actors and stumbled upon Tom Welling's image. When he asked about Welling, the casting director said Welling's manager didn't want him to do the role, because it could hurt his feature film career. After a conversation with Welling's manager, Nutter got him to read the script for the pilot, which convinced him to do the part. For one of his auditions, he read the graveyard scene with Kristin Kreuk; the network thought they had "great chemistry". Welling believes his lack of knowledge of the Superman mythology helps his performance because Gough and Millar have set up the series so that the previous mythology is not important.
    

    

    The original cast: (from left) Annette O'Toole, John Schneider, Tom Welling, Kristin Kreuk, Michael Rosenbaum, Eric Johnson, Allison Mack, and Sam Jones III
    • Kristin Kreuk as Lana Lang : The girl next door . She is the "beautiful, popular girl who is really lonely. She has a "hole in her heart," because of the loss of her parents, and feels empathy for everyone. She feels connected to Clark. Gough and Millar were initially trying to find someone for the role of Clark Kent, but Kristin Kreuk was the first to be cast, as Lana Lang. Casting director Coreen Mayrs sent David Nutter, the director of the pilot episode, a tape of 69 people and the second person on the tape was Kristin Kreuk. They loved her audition tape so much they immediately showed her to the network.
    • Michael Rosenbaum as Lex Luthor : A billionaire's son, sent to Smallville to run the local fertilizer plant. After Clark saves his life, the two become quick friends. Lex tries to be a hero, but his motives are usually driven by curiosity for the unexplained, like the day Clark rescued him from drowning. He is searching for that unconditional love, something his mother had for him before her death. Smallville 's Lex Luthor was not supposed to be a precursor to the more comedic role performed by Gene Hackman ; he was meant to be likeable and vulnerable. The role was hard to cast, as no one could agree on who they liked for the role. Gough and Millar wanted to cast a comedian for the series, on the belief that comedians always want to "please and be loved at the same time." Michael Rosenbaum auditioned for Lex Luthor twice. Feeling he didn't take his first audition seriously, Rosenbaum outlined a two-and-a-half-page scene, indicating all the places to be funny, charismatic, or menacing. His audition went so well that everyone agreed he was "the guy".
    • Allison Mack as Chloe Sullivan : One of Clark's best friends. She is in love with Clark, although the feeling isn't reciprocated. Editor of the school newspaper, her journalistic curiosity— always wanting to "expose falsehoods" and "know the truth" causes tension with her friends, especially when she is digging in Clark's past. She is intelligent and independent, but also an outcast in the school during season one. After learning about Smallville from the show's casting director, Dee Dee Bradley, Allison Mack thought about auditioning for the role of Lana Lang. Mack instead auditioned twice for the role of Chloe Sullivan. The character was created just for the series, and was intended to have an ethnic background before Mack was hired. Part of the reason she was cast was because Gough and Millar felt she had a "rare ability to deliver large chunks of expositionary dialogue conversationally".
    • Sam Jones III as Pete Ross : Another of Clark's best friends. He hates the Luthors for what he sees as their thievery of his family's creamed corn business. He is the first person Clark voluntarily informs of his secret. ^[57] He is in love with Chloe, which he keeps to himself because of the Clark-Lana-Chloe love triangle already taking place. Pete Ross was written out of the series at the end of season three. Sam Jones III, who portrayed Pete Ross, was the last of the series regulars to be cast. Gough and Millar saw Jones four days before they began filming for the pilot. In the comics, Pete Ross is Caucasian , and the producers chose to cast Jones, who is African-American , against the mythology.

    "...I have the feeling that she didn't have a mother growing up — they've never introduced a mother for her. That's why being a mother is so important to her — and being the 'picture book' kind of mother at that." Annette O'Toole on Martha Kent

    • Annette O'Toole as Martha Kent : Clark's adopted mother. She, along with her husband Jonathan, give Clark sage advice about how to cope with his growing abilities. Annette O'Toole devised her own background for the character, in an effort to help her identify with the role. In her vision, Martha was originally from Metropolis, but she left because she felt it was "too phony". O'Toole also believes Martha carries sympathy for Lex, because of all the loss he endured as a child (his mother and his hair). According to O'Toole, Martha will always give Lex "the benefit of the doubt," even when he reaches the point that he has crossed to the "dark side". In season five, she takes a state senate seat. This leads to a job as US Senator in Washington, D.C. in season six, and the character's exit from the show. Cynthia Ettinger was originally cast as Martha Kent, but during filming everyone realized that she was not right for the role, including Ettinger. Annette O'Toole was committed to the television series The Huntress when Ettinger was filming the original pilot. Around the time the creators were looking to recast the role of Martha Kent, The Huntress was canceled, which allowed O'Toole to join the cast of Smallville . O'Toole had previously portrayed Lana Lang in Superman III .
    • John Schneider as Jonathan Kent : Clark's adopted father. He goes to great lengths to protect his son's secret. According to Schneider, Jonathan is "perfectly willing to go to jail, or worse, to protect his son." Schneider also believes, "The least important person in Jonathan Kent's life is Jonathan Kent." John Schneider was written out of the show on the series' 100th episode. Millar and Gough wanted a recognizable face for Smallville . Gough and Millar loved the idea of casting John Schneider as Jonathan Kent, because Schneider was already known as Bo Duke from The Dukes of Hazzard , which Gough saw as adding belief that he could have grown up running a farm.
    • Eric Johnson as Whitney Fordman : Lana's boyfriend. He becomes jealous of Clark and Lana's budding friendship, going so far as to haze Clark. He eventually reconciles with Clark, before joining the Marines . Kristin Kreuk feels audiences did not get to know the character, because he was only seen through Clark's eyes. Whitney was written out of the show in the first season's finale, but he made cameo appearances in the season two episode "Visage", where it is revealed he died in combat overseas, and the season four episode "Façade", during a flashback to Clark's freshman year. Eric Johnson has expressed his pleasure in the way the writers handled Whitney's departure, by giving the character the exit of a hero. Johnson auditioned for the roles of Lex and Clark, before finally being cast as Whitney Fordman. When the producers called him in for one more audition, after passing on him for the major roles, Johnson informed them that if they wanted him then they would need to bring him in for a screen-test. After the screen-test, Johnson was cast and spent only one day filming his scenes for the pilot.
    • Additional cast
    • John Glover as Lionel Luthor : Lex's father. Lionel is responsible for the Kents being able to adopt Clark without any legal ramifications or questions of his origins. Glover tried to make Lionel appear as though he was trying to "toughen [Lex] up". The character is made to "go out his way, to give [Lex] tests, so [Lex] can prove himself." Glover saw the character as someone who was a rich and powerful business man, disappointed in his son. Glover's goal, for season one, was to show Lionel's attempts to make Lex tougher; he interprets the character's motto, in regards to raising Lex, as "no risk, no rewards." Lionel was created specifically for the show, to provide a parallel to the Kents , as an "experiment in extreme parenting." In season two, John Glover, who had been a recurring guest on the show in season one, became a part of the regular cast.
    • Erica Durance as Lois Lane : Chloe's cousin, she comes to Smallville investigating the supposed death of Chloe. She stays with the Kents while in town. Durance was a recurring guest for season four; she returned as a regular cast member in season five.
    • Jensen Ackles as Jason Teague : A love interest for Lana in season four. He follows Lana to Smallville, from Paris, France , and takes a position as the school's assistant football coach. He was fired from the school when his relationship with Lana came to light. By the end of the season, it is revealed that he has been working with his mother to track the three Kryptonian stones of knowledge. Ackles received top billing for season four and was contracted to remain through season five, but was written out of the show in season four's finale due to his commitments to Supernatural .
    • Aaron Ashmore as Jimmy Olsen : Chloe's photographer boyfriend; he also works at the Daily Planet . Ashmore was a recurring guest for season six but became a regular cast member in season seven.
    • Laura Vandervoort as Kara : Clark's Kryptonian cousin. She was sent to look after Kal-El (Clark), but was stuck in suspended animation for eighteen years. When the dam confining her ship broke in the season six finale, "Phantom", she was set free. She has all of Clark's abilities, as well as a few that he doesn't have at the moment, including the ability to fly. Gough has stated that she will not wear any version of the Supergirl costume.

• Destiny calling Lex

  • From: sheluvs40
  • Description:

    I think it is really col that Lex is becoming more scheming and "evil" in the 7th season; and, the eighth season will hopfully include som more of Michael Rosenbaum's cleverly acted/clever witted Lex. I really believe that MR's Lex far surpasses that of Gene Hackman and Kevin Spacey (from Superman Returns). Of course, that's just a viewer's opinion: yet, I shudder to see how the 8th season will fare without at least a few episodes with Lex. Anyone want to wager it?

• "Blue" left me with the superm

  • From: UKGRLOFKY
  • Description:

    I had no idea that the titles would start to resemble how fans would feel after watching. Blue was terrible. The acting made me feel as though I were watching a really bad soap opera. Some of the things in the script sounded terrible...they didn't even sound like normal dialogue. Example: When Lex and Julien discuss that they are brothers, it sounded so unnatural. I love Michael Rosenbaum as an actor- he always does a fantastic job...and I in no way blame him for the cheesy script he has to read from. And while I'm on the topic of "Lex"...he seems to be getting less and less time on the show.

    While I'm on my rant....some of the actors themselves bother me too...Helen Slater, Laura Vandermoort, and Michael Cassidy show some poor acting skills. I always think they sound like they are reading from a script instead of conversing with one another. I feel like SV has a poor choice of actors sometimes. I know some would disagree with me but this is just my opinion on the matter. I know a lot of the regulars on the show acted very poorly in the beginning and they got better, so I'm trying to give the others a chance but....

    Lois and Grant: idk...Lois doesn't seem like the Lois I know from the comics. But for the Lois we see on Smallville....I can't help but like seeing the two together. I don't mean to make it sound like shipper-garbage...I guess its just a guilty pleasure. lol

    Lionel: The poor man has become smallville's punching bag. lol :(

    Clark: He never learns from his previous lessons. He knows Jor-el knows best(and always has) yet he goes against him EVERY time!

    The blue kryptonite was cool. I don't know much about blue kryptonite so I didn't know what it did.

    I guess the best plus to the show was no Clana Sex.....and less Lana time in general :)

    Well...that's my feelings on the eppy tonight. How about you guys??
