Effect Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 (edited) Possible spoilers 09:00am ET, 15-July-04 Smallville's Clark Will Fly In a reversal of the show's original "no flights, no tights" edict, Smallville executive producer Miles Millar confirmed to SCI FI Wire that star Tom Welling will be seen flying in the upcoming fourth-season premiere—but not in a way viewers might expect. "He doesn't fly as Clark. He flies as Kal-El," Millar said in an interview at The WB's fall press preview in Los Angeles. "The first episode is all about visualizing the internal fight between Clark and Kal-El. Clark Kent represents his Earth-bound persona, the kid who was brought up by the Kents. And Kal-El represents the person that Jor-El wants him to be. This personifies that." As he has in each of the three previous seasons, Clark will discover a new power this year. But despite the instance in the season premiere, Millar insists, "it's not flight." As fans of the comic book know, that leaves few possibilities. So will cold breath be next?" It might be," Millar said. "There aren't many powers left." This season will focus on Clark's senior year of high school and will move toward a big revelation toward the end, Millar hinted. "Clark Kent, at the end of this year, will really graduate," he said. "And we're introducing a whole new mythology as well that will involve Lana, Lex and Clark. And at the end of the season we pay off something that is huge in the Superman mythology. It all leads towards something. Diehard fans of the mythology will realize what it is pretty quickly, others won't." Smallville begins its fourth season on Sept. 22 in its regular 8 p.m. ET/PT Wednesday timeslot. http://www.scifi.com/scifiwire/art-main.ht...-07/15/11.50.tv I don't know much about the Superman comics, , but does anyone know what they are refering to in the last paragraph?

eugimon Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 the only two big things left are clark telling lana who he is and heading off towards metropolis and luthor turning evil/hating clark... I think... everything else is kinda minor stuff at this point... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
