The Ausiello Files have an exclusive scoop about the tenth, and final, season of
Smallville. And that is the fact that Elena Satine (who has become something of a fan favourite pick for Mary Jane in the upcoming
Spider-Man 3D in recent months here on CBM) will play the wife of Aquaman later theis year. Here are some excerpts for the sites report:
"When the H20-based Justice Leaguer (as played by Alan Ritchson) returns to Smallville next month, he’ll be a married man. The lucky bride? Classic DC Comics undersea queen Mera!"
"Actress Elena Satine—whose credits include guest stints on Cold Case and Melrose Place 2.0—will play the role of Mera. The newlyweds will turn up in this season’s Tom Welling-helmed ninth episode."
The wife of Aquaman, and former Queen of Atlantis, Mera is from Xebel, a watery dimension inhabited by an exiled group of Atlanteans. She figured prominently in the Blackest Night story line, and has recently reunited with her husband in the pages of Brightest Day. What do you think about this casting choice?
