Casting Has Begun For Smallville's Two New Season 8 Characters: Revised Casting Sides!
The casting process has begun for the two new characters of Smallville Season 8, and some new casting sides have been released for them. (Previous "screen test" scenes are detailed here)

Keep in mind that these introductory scenes might not be what hits the air in September. For example, when producers were casting for Jason Teague back in 2004, there was a scene involving Lana and a Vespa that did not get filmed in the actual show. Plus, these have already been edited once and could always be edited again before filming begins next month.

Today, some revised casting sides were released for the two characters, which implies the roles are not yet cast. The Davis Bloome sides seem to be the same as before, but there is some new information within the casting materials for Tess.

Here is some of the new material:

- Oliver visits Tess at Luthor Mansion. It is revealed that Lex has been declared dead by the state.
- Tess is depressed and lost, and does not beleive that Lex has ever done anything wrong. Oliver tells her that "the Lex you knew didn't exist."
- The scene with Clark and Tess has been revised, and Tess makes a reference to a rumor that Clark is the last person who saw Lex alive. She also notes that she finds it mysterious that "a random farm boy would end up being so entangled in the Luthor family." Although Lex is declared dead by the state in the Oliver/Tess scene, Tess refers to Lex's fate in this scene as "his disappearance."
