Smallville - Justice Society Characters & Actors Confirmed

As I've mentioned recently there will be a Smallville season 9 2-part episode written by comic writer Geoff Johns and directed by Glen Winter and Tom Welling which will feature 3 members of the DC Comics Justice Society. The episodes will be called 'Society' and 'Legends'.

Unfortunately there will be no appearance by Power Girl (far too complicated to explain her existence in the show if you know her history in the comics, plus they'll probably never be able to find an actress with Power Girl's famous sizable assets!) but three others have now been chosen, along with the actors who will play them.

First up is Hawkman played by Stargate SG-1's very own Dr. Daniel Jackson - Michael shanks.


Next up is Dr Fate played by Andromeda's Rev Bem - Brent Stait.


And finally Stargirl (Star Spangled Kid) played by Britt Irvin who's been in many shows, most recently the 'V' pilot episode.



It's obvious, as with every other DC superhero that's ever appeared on Smallville, that the actors won't be dressed like their comic counterparts and that what we'll see on screen will be an approximation of each costume featuring leather in some way or form... We'll have to see if they turn out cool or crap, but if the creators don't give Hawkman wings in some way or form I'm not going to be a happy bunny!!!!!
