Smallville
Summary
The Arrowverse ’s Crisis on Infinite Earths showrunner explain the crossover ’s confusingSmallvillechoice . One yr beforeArrowdebuted in 2012 and the Arrowverse was bear , Tom Welling end his run as Clark Kent afterten seasons ofSmallville . With the final season of the Superman prequel series , it seemed like the actor would never toy Clark again . Thankfully , the Arrowverse switch that , with Welling and Lois Lane actress Erica Durance returning for theCrisis on Infinite Earths crossover voter , though there was an return .
OnThe Showrunner Whispererpodcast , Crisis On Infinite Earths showrunner Marc Guggenheim talked about whySmallville ’s universe was not included in the outcome ’s post - Crisis montage . At the end of the crossover , several injection of heroes from all over the multiverse appeared ; however , Welling ’s Clark and Durance ’s Lois were nowhere to be watch , which had some fans thinkingSmallville ’s universe of discourse was destroyed . Guggenheim divulge the reason for them not appearing was that he did not recollect that would be a question , as well as Welling ’s pay , which had to be contained to one instalment . Check out the full quote below :
" Why did n’t we have Smallville ? I ’ll be honest with you . I think it was two reason - bit 1 : it never occur to me until I got the interrogative sentence on Twitter that people guess we did blow up the Smallville cosmos . So part of it was that , and part of it was , we had patently seen Clark and Lois in sequence 2 [ of Crisis on Infinite Earth . ] For the most part , the ‘ going around the horn ’ [ shutting successiveness montage at the end of episode 5 ] was to see all the universes and all the graphic symbol that we did n’t get to see .
If I could have done it all over again , it would be awesome to just have a shot of Lois and Clark on the farm , kissing , for the go - around - the - trump - sequence . But yeah , sorry , I omit the testis on that ! We only had Tom for a few hours , but also , here ’s the affair : under SAG rules , an thespian do n’t get pay by the amount of metre they expend on lot . They get pay by the number of episodes they are in . So if Tom was contracted for episode 2 , and if Tom appeared in episode 5 , that would touch off a completely different payment . We certainly did n’t have the money for that , but that really was n’t a factor . It , quite candidly , just did n’t occur to me . "
Tom Welling ’s Clark Kent and Erica Durance ’s Lois Lane are one of the good DC couples , and Smallville ’s Superman & Lois had many epic moments .
