Michael Rosenbaum Offers Update on "Smallville" Animated Series
Posted on March 20, 2024 by Neil Cole
In an exclusive interview with Screen Rant, actor Michael Rosenbaum offered an update on the possibility of an animated sequel to "Smallville" which he and Tom Welling are developing alongside the original series creators, Al Gough and Miles Millar.
"All I could share is that it's a great idea. We have Al and Miles, the creators of Smallville backing us up," stated Rosenbaum. "When it's the right time, we'd like to go and do this; pitch to Warner Bros. It has to be the right time, and right now is not the right time. We had the strike, we had a change of executives at DC - one being one of my best friends in the world, James Gunn. When the time's right, I think it's something that's a no brainer, unless they have other ideas. We'd like to do it - the whole cast would like to do it. They would voice their own character from the show, and we have a concept of what the show is."
"Smallville" premiered in 2001 and aired for 10 seasons on The WB and The CW. The series followed the coming-of-age adventures of a teenaged Clark Kent (Welling) in his fictional hometown of Smallville, Kansas, before formally becoming the Man of Steel. Following the series finale in 2011, the storyline resumed in comic-book form, with 22 issues of Season 11 from April, 2012 to November, 2013.
Rosenbaum's podcasts, "Inside of You with Michael Rosenbaum" and "Talk Ville", air every Tuesday and Wednesday, respectively, on YouTube and other various podcast platforms.
