April 4, 2001: "Smallville" News and Interview with Executive Producer

Shooting on the Pilot Episode of "Smallville" ends this Saturday in Vancouver. The Comics Continuum also reports that first-unit work on the pilot (directed by David Nutter from a script by Miles Millar and Alfred Gough) was completed on Friday, March 30th. This week's work involves the second-unit with effects shots.

In other "Smallville" news, Planet Krypton conducted an interview with "Smallville" Executive Producer Al Gough. Below is a small portion of the Interview...

Q: What kind of costume will Clark wear before there is a costume?

A: He just wears regular clothes, he isn't in disguise, he just has to keep his powers secret. He won't be wearing glasses. I always thought the glasses and that sort of persona that he plays in Metropolis is to disguise the fact that he is Superman in the costume. Here he's a kid dealing with these sort of extraordinary powers and trying to get through high school. Part of it is keeping these things secret. It's more along the lines of the movie where he didn't have the costume until he went to Metropolis. Basically, we're not doing "Superboy".
