They're back.
Eight years after we bid farewell to
Smallville, Clark Kent (Tom Welling) and Lois Lane (Erica Durance) have reunited on the Kent Farm for DC TV's upcoming "Crisis on Infinite Earths," a special event that's quite possibly shaping up to be the most ambitious crossover in television history.
Production began on Tuesday and is expected to continue for a few weeks as DC characters from
Supergirl,
The Flash, Arrow,
Legends of Tomorrow,
Batwoman,
Black Lightning and
Smallville unite to save the multiverse from the biggest threat its ever seen.
The former on-screen lovebirds (Clois!) headline a large number of returning special guest stars, including LaMonica Garrett as The Monitor/Anti-Monitor, Tyler Hoechlin as Clark Kent/Superman, Elizabeth Tulloch as Lois Lane, Jon Cryer as Lex Luthor, Cress Williams as Black Lightning, John Wesley Shipp as Barry Allen/Earth-90 Flash, Johnathon Schaech as Jonah Hex, Kevin Conroy as future Bruce Wayne and Burt Ward in an undisclosed role. Additional
Black Lightning characters are also expected to appear, but it's not entirely clear which ones just yet.
Both Brandon Routh (
Legends of Tomorrow) and Tom Cavanagh (
The Flash) will be pulling double duty for their respective shows. Routh will suit up as both The Atom and Kingdom Come Superman, while Cavanagh is expected to play Pariah in addition to the latest iteration of Harrison Wells.
"Crisis on Infinite Earths" begins with
Supergirl on December 8, followed by
Batwoman on December 9,
The Flash on December 10 and concludes with an
Arrow/Legends of Tomorrow double header on January 14, 2020.
