A Smallville Live-Action Return Could Happen

While the plannedSmallvilleanimated serial publication is the well potential aspect for a return of the democratic show , it is not the only fashion the Superman serial could come back . ASmallvillereturn in live - action is another opening . The Lex Luthor actor also toldScreen Rantthata variety in mass medium could materialise ifSmallvillewere to be continued , asRosenbaum and Welling would be open to give back for aSmallvillemovie .

A DCU Multiverse Event Could Include Smallville’s Key Characters

The Easiest Solution To A Smallville Continuation

Smallvillecould also make a counter indirectly . Instead of have Welling and Rosenbaum reprise their iconic DC roles in a sequel , the star could appear in James Gunn ’s DC Universe for a multiverse event , and there is already a common law for that . Years afterSmallvilleended in 2011,Welling and Erica Durance came back as their versions of Clark Kent and Lois Lanefrom the show for the Arrowverse ’s Crisis on Infinite Earths crossing , though Rosenbaum refused to come back as Lex Luthor .

The original planned part for Smallville ’s Lex Luthor in the Arrowverse ’s Crisis on Infinite Earths has been expose , and it would have been clumsy .

With the multiverse now a pop element in superhero movies and serial publication , the new DC Universe could have a multiversal consequence down the line . give how Welling has already returned for such a undertaking and Rosenbaum is close friends with James Gunn , the duo could very much pass asSmallville ’s Clark Kent and Lex Luthor that way . As two of the most pop alive - action at law DC part , Smallville ’s Superman and Lex Luthor are top candidate for any future DCU multiverse events .
