It's official the new season of Smallville can't get here soon enough. In addition to hottie Tom Welling aka Clark Kent, Brian Austin Green has been cast on Smallville as the DC Comics villain Metallo. Green will appear as the kryptonite-powered villain (alter ego "Daily Planet" journo John Corben) in at least the first two episodes of Season 9, starting Friday, Sept. 25.
Green's Smallville appearence comes on the heels of him costarring on Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, which was canceled after two seasons. Smallville fans are still waiting for news on big, bad Zod, given the events of the Season 8 finale, but that role still has yet to be cast. Stay tuned for more to come on BAG and smallville.
