E! Online is reporting James Marsters will be returning to Smallville this season to reprise his role as Brainiac. While it’s unclear exactly how James is returning, I can tell you he’s reprising the exact same character, he’s returning to set very soon and his episodes begin airing in January. I do like the way Braniac was introduced and handled in Smallville, although I still prefer the I’ve come for knowledge and will then destroy your planet Brainiac from Superman: The Animated Series. And don’t forget the new season of Smallville featuring the introduction of Supergirl airs tonight! via E!…

Variety this morning confirms the Lois and Clark star will be heading to Smallville this fall. He is set to play Dr. Curtis Knox – a villain. He is scheduled to appear in episode four of Smallville’s 7th season, which begins September 27. Well, I’m sure there are a lot of Dean Cain fans out there who are going to love this. Of all the Supermen to don the tights, I always thought Cain in his prime fit the part near perfectly. Of course now he’s looking a bit pudgy, so playing a villain is probably the best way to…

Rumors on the Internet this morning have Dean Cain in talks with the producers of the CW’s Smallville seiries. There’s no word on what role Dean Cain would play on the show. For those not in the know, Cain played Clark Kent/Superman in the ABC series Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman. Back in the 90’s I really enjoyed watching Lois & Clark, one because it was a Superman related show, and two because Terri Hatcher looked soooooo much better back then. The first two seasons were really good, but the show seemed to go downhill after that.…
