Smallville finally has its Zod, and it's British actor Callum Blue. According to the Hollywood Reporter, Blue, who played Mason on the fantastic series
Dead Like Me, will take on the much-anticipated role of General Zod as a series regular for Smallville season 9. He will first appear in the season premiere September 25.
As a big
Dead Like Me fan, this news is very interesting. But for purely selfish reasons, I'm a bit teed off
Smallville didn't use any of my equally great
21 casting suggestions.
Zod will definitely stir up trouble for Clark and the rest of
Smallville in season 9. Blue is a very interesting choice, because he
doesn't quite fit the conventional mold of the show. He's British,
he's not exactly a former male model like the rest of the cast, and
he's capable of very dark comedy.
