Under The sea
Found this on Peter David’s Blog
Well, score one for my agent, who told me two weeks ago that Warners had pulled the “Aquaman” movie option from the folks who’d been developing it because they were planning to do a “Smallville” spin-off featuring the sea king. Kinda sucks to be the actor who is now going to be recast. Perhaps he can form a support group with Stuart Townsend who was tossed after a week of shooting LOTR for Viggo.
Now I saw the Aqua episode in Smallville and liked the actor who played him. He might be a bit too “surfer dude” for me, but the man does live in the water, maybe it all went to his head or something. Of course from that episode you’ll notice what they’ll use instead of kryptonite… lack of water. I suppose its good and bad, good is it’ll give me something comicbook-like to watch after Smallville ends (I mean how much longer is this series going to go on for? Honestly I’d love to see another Superman series staring the same cast after Smallville… but thats me.). The bad every episode is going to be something like: Random villain lures Aquaman out of the ocean and holds him captive. I’ll watch it, but I’m not sure for how long. They’d have some big shoes to fill if they want to take over Smallville’s spot after thats done with.
