Faster than a speeding bullet!

Is Battlestar Galactica’s Tahmoh Penikett Going To Play A Superman Villain In Man of Steel?

by Jill Pantozzi | 11:46 am, November 23rd, 2012

Tahmoh Penikett is cementing himself into our nerd culture. His role on Battlestar Galactica would have been enough but he didn’t stop there. Next, he took a major role on Joss Whedon’s Dollhouse, then we found out he’d be appearing on the CW’s Arrow. But the latest news has Penikett set to star in Zack Snyder’s Man of Steel. But as who? Well, that’s where things get interesting.

There’s A Campaign To Get Hutchinson, Kansas Renamed Smallville In Honor Of Superman

by Jill Pantozzi | 11:06 am, September 4th, 2012

Those familiar with the Superman mythos know that the Man of Steel got his humble beginnings in a small Kansas town named Smallville. It’s a fictional town of course but one man is trying to change that by getting his hometown of Hutchingson to alter their name.

Someone Else Who’s Not Finnick Has Been Cast In Catching Fire

by Jill Pantozzi | 4:14 pm, August 9th, 2012

The casting announcements for The Hunger Games: Catching Fire continue to come at us fast and furious. But no, it’s still not Finnick, which is kind of ironic when you think about it considering this actor played Arthur Curry/Aquaman on the CW’s Smallville. Lionsgate has just revealed who will take on the role of District 1′s Gloss – Alan Ritchson.

Holy Rusted Metal Batman!

Could Batman Make His TV Comeback Courtesy Of The CW’s Arrow?

by Jill Pantozzi | 2:47 pm, August 3rd, 2012

Most of us remember the impression Batman left the last time he starred in a live-action television show. Adam West’s portrayal will never be forgotten but in the wave of Christopher Nolan’s more realistic (and highly successful) take on the character in film, could Batman ever be brought back to the small screen? According to the CW’s Arrow writer Marc Guggenheim, the answer is yes.

Did Oliver Queen Just Kill A Dude In This CW Arrow Clip?!

by Jill Pantozzi | 5:43 pm, July 12th, 2012

I’m following the CW’s big Smallville follow-up, Arrow, with a sharp eye. Oliver Queen is one of my favorite characters (when written well) and I’d love to see this show succeed. The clips and trailers we’ve seen so far have been promising, with tons of action and a seemingly serious take on Green Arrow, but if this new clip from TVLine is to be believed, Arrow is going to be really serious. Deadly serious to be exact. Watch as Stephen Amell’s Ollie gets out of a sticky situation in this clip from the pilot episode.

Misleading Headline of the Day

Here’s A Trailer For A Justice League Movie

by Jill Pantozzi | 1:17 pm, June 15th, 2012

Don’t nerd rage at me, this is awesome. Youtube user SouperboyX started work on a Justice League fan trailer before Warner Bros. announced that they were relaunching their Justice League movie project (and starting production on tons of other character films). He writes, “Here we basically have a ‘Suicide Squad/VRA/Brainiac Invasion’ type thing going on here. Probably what would be the three main acts of a film.” He includes footage from several recent DC films and television shows including the Wonder Woman pilot, Green Lantern, The Dark Knight Rises, and Smallville. And is that some G.I. Joe: Retaliation I see thrown in for added effect? Possibly some Transformers too? I’d see it. What about you?

And Now For Something Completely Different

Being Human’s Sam Witwer Teaches Kathy Lee & Hoda How To Correctly Use A Lightsaber

by Jill Pantozzi | 11:34 am, March 10th, 2012

The first thing you need to know about actor Sam Witwer is, he’s a huge geek. So it’s no coincidence he’s had roles as the vampire Aiden on the U.S. version of Being Human, Doomsday on Smallville, Crashdown on Battlestar Galactica, or Starkiller in the video game Star Wars: The Force Unleashed. He’s truly living the dream. The actor has also voiced the character, the Son, on Star Wars: The Clone Wars and just took on another role for the animated series, that of Darth Maul. To publicize his latest appearance, Witwer visited the Today Show to give hosts Hoda and Kathy Lee a few pointers on how to wield a lightsaber. Take a look at the video after the jump!

Phil Morris, Star Of Justice League: Doom, Talks Being A Geek, & Future Comic Adaptations

by Jill Pantozzi | 2:00 pm, February 28th, 2012

Phil Morris has played a Jem’Hadar, a Martian, and a lawyer. Quite the interesting combination. Yes, you’ve seen him in several Star Trek incarnations, but most fans either know him as John Jones (Martian Manhunter) from Smallville or Jackie Chiles, the fast-talking lawyer from Seinfeld. But the actor has a lengthy voice acting career under his belt as well and most recently took on the role of immortal Vandal Savage in the Warner Home Video release, Justice League: Doom, in stores today. The Mary Sue recently got a chance to speak with Morris about the role, his career as a whole, and his huge comic book collection.
