Smallville Reunion on Kristin Kreuk’s New TV Show

Yesterday, FOX released the first trailer for Kristin Kreuk‘s new TV show Murder in a Small Town which will be premiering this Fall…. and eagle-eyed Smallville fans, always holding on as they do, noticed a very familiar face around the 00:43 mark.

Yes, that is Erica Durance holding a gun, and Kristin Kreuk herself confirmed it on her Instagram page when asked by a fan. So, we’re not sure when Erica is showing up, or for how many episodes if it’s more than one, but it’ll be nice to see Smallville’s “Lana” and “Lois” in the same place again, right?

Funny enough, the last show Kristin starred in also had a Smallville connection, as she appeared opposite Alan Ritchson (Aquaman) in Reacher.

Here’s the trailer so you can see for yourself. Details about Murder in a Small Town can be read below as well.

Based on the Edgar Award-winning, nine-book “Karl Alberg” series by acclaimed novelist L.R. Wright, and starring Rossif Sutherland (Reign, The Handmaid’s Tale) and Kristin Kreuk (Smallville, Beauty and the Beast), Murder in a Small Town follows Karl Alberg (Sutherland), who moves to a quiet coastal town to soothe a psyche that has been battered by big-city police work. But this gentle paradise has more than its share of secrets, and Karl will need to call upon all the skills that made him a world-class detective in solving the murders that, even in this seemingly idyllic setting, continue to wash up on his shore. Kreuk stars as Cassandra, a local librarian who becomes Alberg’s muse, foil and romantic interest.

Mya Lowe (My Life with the Walter Boys, Yellowjackets), Savonna Spracklin (Two-Spirit Odyssey, Wildhood), Aaron Douglas (Battlestar Galactica, The Watchful Eye) and Fritzy-Klevans Destine (The Boys, Superman & Lois) recur in the series, which also features special guest stars James Cromwell (Babe, Succession), Stana Katic (Castle, Absentia) and Paula Patton (The Perfect Match, Precious), Murder in a Small Town is produced by Sepia Films in association with FOX Entertainment and Jeff Wachtel’s Future Shack Entertainment. Murder in a Small Town will be produced in British Columbia, with Ian Weir (Arctic Air, Edgemont) serving as head writer/executive producer, Milan Cheylov (24, The Cleaning Lady) executive-producing and directing multiple episodes of the program, and Nick Orchard (Soapbox Productions), Morris Ruskin and Sharon Wisnia (Mojo Global Arts) and Jon Cotton also serving as executive producers. FOX has acquired all U.S. rights of Murder in a Small Town.
