From Scifi Scoop (who also provided the pic):
David Gallagher (7th Heaven / Phenomenon) and Allison Scagliotti (Warehouse 13) have been cast to appear in the upcoming ninth season of Smallville.
If the rumors turn out correct, it looks
like they’ll be playing the characters of Zan and Jayna, aka the Wonder
Twins from Superfriends.
Smallville. Can I talk to you for a second? Nerd blog to nerd show. Okay. You ready? I’ve never begrudged you your incredibly long run, if only because I gave up on you the minute theer was the secret street-racing league in Smallville. While I’ve often wondered how you could possibly pad out nine seasons based on Superman’s early days, you’ve kept adding random DC heroes and villains and it’s seemed to work out for you, more or less. However.
ONCE YOU BRING IN THE GODDAMN WONDER TWINS, YOU ARE OFFICIALLY OUT OF IDEAS. PERIOD.
Thanks for listening. Now stop it.
