It sure sounds like it based on this season 9 casting notice that just fell into my lap:
MASON: Late 20′s early 30′s. He’s a handsome charismatic charmer who savors life. He appreciates good food, loves fast cars and sees beauty in every woman. There isn’t a detail in life that eludes his senses. He is a master of seduction… knowing what everyone wants and needs before they do. But don’t let his magnetism fool you. There’s more than meets the eye. His intelligence can’t be matched. He outmaneuvers everyone in his path. Though he longs to find a home, that vulnerability can be twisted — making him a force to be reckoned with.”
Thoughts?!
sounds a little more like a new lex-type character than anything else…
It almost kind of sort of sounds like Brainiac…if Brainiac were a womanizer-woman-woman-izer.
Ugh, sounds like a smarter version of Lex Luthor
Sounds like Bruce Wayne to me. But that’s not possible, is it? Green Arrow is clearly Smallville’s version of Batman, because they can’t actually use Bats in the show. General Zod, at least in the original Superman movies, was definitely not suave and charming.
OMG.. it wasn’t enough they did this with Doomsday all season? Now they have to do it with Zod as well?
Come on…
and for Jor-El’s sake.. Fly, already!
It ain’t witwer then….to bad, that boy is hella swxy and would have made a badass zod
Ya, I wish. Sounds to me like Bruce Wayne. Other than the home part =(
It’s like Kal actually. Except really smart apparently. I really hope they use Red K while this character is around. That would be so badass.
Hmmm…Knowing what people need….
Some sort of telepath?
Maybe it’s Manchester Black?
awesome….!!
I had heard rumors that the guy who played Davis Bloom/Doomsday would be playing Zod since Doomsday was created from his DNA. So, maybe not, or maybe this is a different character. And no, DC Comics will NOT ALLOW Bruce Wayne to appear on Smallville. The various creators of Smallville have all spoken about that over the years.
In what universe does that sound like Zod? Heck, it doesn’t even sound like the Zod that posessed Lex in Season 6.
Zod is an insane general obsessed with restoring Krypton, he looks down on humans, and is basically a power mad nutball. There is nothing about Zod that screams “he loves the finer things in life!”
I hope to heck this isn’t Zod. SV already spent a season wussifying friggin DOOMSDAY.
Sounds boring. They oughta worry about getting the cast they do have full-time instead of wasting money on one season filler characters and giving them a regular spot.
PLEASE let it be Lex! I never bought the whole ‘dead’ line.
Darn! I was hoping all the rumors online about Sam Witwer portraying “Zod” in season 9 were true.
