Smallville reduced to Lois and Clark?
Posted on May 9th, 2008 by Hot Momma
After seven seasons Smallville which follows the life of young Clark Kent aka Superman is running into casting problems. Last week after it was announced that Michael Rosenbaum would not be returning full time as Lex next season. Previously Kristin Kreuk’s decided to only return for a handful of episodes as Lana. Now Allison Mack, who plays popular Chloe may be the next to go.
Originally Mack was on board for Season 8, but then Rosenbaum tendered his resignation and everything began to unravel.
says one Smallville source: “Allison’s camp used Michael leaving as leverage in the negotiations with [Warner Bros.].”
and Kreuk’s decision to go part-time only strengthened Mack’s bargaining position. “They need Chloe now more than ever — and Allison’s people know it.”
With ratings down by double digits and belt-tightening going on everywhere, no one is optimistic that the studio will budge. However if Smallville loses Mack right now, they’ve essentially got Lois and Clark left,and that show’s been done before.”
