Tom Welling Signs On For A New TV Series

Tom Welling has signed on for a new TV series called The Professionals.

Tom Welling has joined the cast of a new series!

He’ll be starring with Brendan Fraser (Doom Patrol, The Mummy) in The Professionals which is loosely based on the Soldier of Fortune movie starring Christian Slater. The 10-episode series is set for the Scandinavian outlet Viaplay though there is said to be international interest.

Here’s how Deadline describes the project and Tom’s character. The show has started filming in South Africa and Ireland and we’re hoping this doesn’t make Tom too busy for a Crisis later this year!  Also, can we just say that it’s amazing that Tom’s character will be working opposite a futurist named Swann?

The Professionals is set against a backdrop of international espionage and corporate sabotage in the 21st century’s privately-funded space race and follow Welling as a hardened former counterintelligence officer Captain Vincent Corbo. After their advanced medical satellite explodes on deployment, billionaire futurist Peter Swann, played by Fraser, and his fiancée, medical visionary Dr. Graciela “Grace” Davila, played by Anaya, turn to Corbo. Corbo assembles a team of experienced professionals to investigate the incident. They learn that any combination of Swann’s business rivals, corrupt governments officials, and a shadowy crime syndicate could be behind the attack and represent a continued threat. Duken plays a Europol agent seeking to thwart the security team’s efforts.

Since Smallville, Tom has appeared in movies including The Choice and Draft Day; he was also a series regular in Season 3 of Lucifer.

Annette O’Toole’s Big Smallville Regret

Annette O’Toole discusses her biggest regret from her time on Smallville.

Published

Smallville’s Annette O’Toole recently spoke with Salon magazine about her biggest regret from her time on the show. It’s a topic she has discussed on the TalkVille podcast, and it is something she talked about in KryptonSite’s interview to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the series premiere.

Basically, it was the notion that she never was able to share scenes with Christopher Reeve. While the plan originally was for a scene between them in the Season 4 premiere “Crusade,” in the two appearances that Reeve did make on Smallville failed to reunite O’Toole with Reeve, which is a shame, as Annette played Lana Lang to Christopher Reeve’s Clark Kent in the film Superman III.

“I never understood it,” she said. “I should have picked up the phone and called the producers and said what are you thinking? You’ve got the prior Lana Lang and Superman. Why aren’t you putting them in a scene together? It kind of broke my heart. It was kind of like ‘if they don’t see, I’m not gonna tell ’em! They don’t understand!’ So who’s regretting it? Not them. I knew it would be the last time I’d ever get to see Chris, so, yeah, I’m very sad about that.”
