Dylan Walsh and Wole Parks also star.
The episode was directed by Harry Jierjian and written by Adam Mallinger.
Don’t really like the idea of Edge as a Kryptonian or having him showing up before Kal-El’s rocket to be Brightburn Boy let alone being Superman’s brother. It almost feels like they beer-slammed MOS Zod with Lex Luthor from that Flyby script.
This is the very first clip I’ve watched from this series, AND it’s exactly why I’ve chosen not to watch it. The CW series writers pilfer everything they can from previous story lines. I’m just hanging onto the Flash as it’s (pun) “running” out of material.
Well, could we at least have the big bad of the season NOT be another Kryptonian, another Luthor (or Luthorish type), and not someone who has powers just like his. No wonder people think Superman has no rouges gallery.
I saw Brightburn a little while back (I’m still regretting seeing that movie), and I consider this episode as a somewhat follow up( granted not entirely accurate when compared to the film’s story of events)to that film. I just needed to see someone with equal super powers to challenge that child monster from that movie, and this is as close as we’re going to get. I still regret seeing that film………
