Ninth
'Doctor Who' Christopher Eccleston To Appear As Zod Episode
#21 of the current season of Smallville, titled "Oracle,"
features the release of General Zod from his imprisonment within
the Kryptonian ship. As he emerges, we'll see that Zod has a
familiar face to fans of British science fiction - he will be
played by Christopher Eccleston, best known as the actor
who plays Doctor Who in the current series airing on
America's SciFi Channel.
"We
wanted someone with an eerie alien quality, and he did that
so well when he was on Doctor Who," a representative
from the show said in a press release. "Plus, he's British.
Zod has to be British. As for his accent, well, even Krypton
has a North."
Season
Finale Is "Bizarro" Remember
all those spoilers on the KryptonSite
Spoilers Page saying that the season finale title was "Vessel?"
Well, here's an update: The spoilers are actually wrong.
Season
Five's actual finale title is "Bizarro," and
it features a new take on the classic Superman comics legend.
In the episode, the show's main characters are replaced with
Goth-looking duplicates who act the total opposite from the
way they are supposed to be. Everyone hates Lana, Lois is smart,
Clark puts people in danger purposely, and Lex Luthor and Chloe
Sullivan are adored by all.
"We're
using Bizarro, because, like, it gives us a chance to make the
characters act different, because we never do that," Al
Gough said in a recent interview.
Despite
this derailment into meteor freak land, the episode's plot DOES
tie in to the storylines at the end of the fifth season. What
does cloning have to do with Milton Fine's master plan? Watch
and see....
UPDATE!
Thanks
to Chiriru, we now have a copy of the episode's poster. Click

Early
Season 6 Spoilers: Brandon Routh & New Aquaman To Guest
Star? To
hype up Smallville's Fall 2006 move to the new CW network,
some details about the early plans for Season 6 have already
been leaked.
First
off: Following the cameo appearance by Tom Welling in the summer
movie blockbuster Superman
Returns (see promotional photo beside this article), we
hear Brandon Routh returns the favor as an adult Superman
from another dimension in the sixth season premiere, "Infinite."
Rumor has it that Bryan Singer MAY be recruited to direct this
special TV episode, which features the long-awaited return of
Alfred Gough and Miles Millar as the episode's writers. Fans
hoping for a Welling vs. Routh showdown in this "infinite
crisis" may be very happy.
We
are also hearing rumors that an early episode from Season 6
will guest-star Justin Hartley as Aquaman and it will tie in
to the new CW spin-off series, Mercy Reef. There may
also be another unofficial crossover as Bart Allen (Kyle Gallner)
is said to return for one episode from each series during November
sweeps.
Schneider
& WB Prepare The Dukes of Hazzard: The Next Generation John
Schneider may have departed Smallville this season, but
Hollywood Variety
is reporting that he's got another Warner Bros.-related project
in the works.
Schneider
is in talks to produce and star in a "next generation"
series based on his classic hit The Dukes of Hazzard.
The series would pick up over 20 years after the original show,
and Bo and Luke have sons of their own. The car, of course,
remains the same.
Hazzard
2006 is a changed town. The fun-loving brand of corruption of
J.D. Hogg and his loyal but bumbling Sheriff, Rosco P. Coltrane,
has been gone for several years; their spots in local government
are taken instead by ruthless politicians.
The
series' two reunion movies and the big-screen bomb starring
Jessica Simpson will be ignored in the new show's continuity,
though we hear producers are looking for an actress with "Jessica
Simpson looks and beauty" to play a new character who will
serve as a love interest for one of the boys.
Should
the development prove successful, we could see Hazzard on
a major network as early as Spring 2007.
UPDATED
With A Scan!
Has Chloe Sullivan Already Appeared In DC Comics? An
advance copy of issue #651 of DC's Superman comic book
series has a very curious line that may imply that we've been
reading about Chloe Sullivan in DC Universe comics for a very
long time.
In
the issue, it is said that there's a sequence where Lois makes
a mention of a COUSIN named Lois Lane. Even more interesting,
Lois says "When she passed away from alcohol poisoning
at 23, I took her name as my pen name, as a tribute."
UPDATE!!!
Chiriru has been able to obtain a copy from her store's First
Look program and hasprovided
us with a scan from the page! If it is true, this could
reveal the Smallville producers' secret final plans for
TV's Chloe character.
Annette
O'Toole's Non-Aging Secret So
today is the birthday of Annette O'Toole (Martha Kent) - an
actress who still looks as beautiful today as she did when she
played
Lana Lang in Superman III.
We
here at KryptonSite have learned the secret of Ms. O'Toole's
beauty. She is apparently part of a secret society called the
Hotimom. Every member of the Hotimom knows a secret regimen
to keep their youth. However, there are fears within society
that if too many people know the ways of the Hotimom, that all
the world will think that moms should look as great as they
do on TV.
Either
way, we wish Annette a very happy birthday. You can leave your
wishes for Annette on the K-Site
forum.
