The first episode of Supergirl, airing on CBS on October 26, already has two legends of Super-lore appearing, in the form of Dean Cain (star of Lois & Clark: The Adventures of Superman — he played Superman) and Helen Slater (star of the Supergirl movie, where she played… guess who).
The last Super-TV show, Smallville, featured appearances from a number of superhero veterans, including Cain, Slater, Teri Hatcher, Marc McClure, Lynda Carter, and even Christopher Reeve. (Sadly, someone lost Gerard Christopher’s number.)
Neither Arrow nor The Flash have consciously cast actors from Smallville yet in their shows — perhaps because it is still recent. (Yes, we know few Smallville guest actors, like Peyton List and Michael Ironside have shown up, but we’re talking series leads.) So we’re asking you, in case Supergirl is ever going to that well: Which Smallville actor would you most like to see on Supergirl at one point?
We’ll be running this poll for a week or two, and then we’ll share the results then. Have fun, and if you’re looking for something to do to pass the time between now and October 26, come by our KryptonSite Supergirl forum!
