April 15, 2007: Rosenbaum Says “Smallville” Season 7 is Final Season

ScliceofSciFi.com has posted an interview with Michael Rosenbaum in which he pretty much confirms that season 7 of "Smallville" will not only be his last, but will also be the last for the series as a whole.

Q: Is anything going to happen with Lex on in the upcoming remaining episodes of this season?

MR: Lex Luthor and Lana Lang just got married; Lana was pretty much forced into getting married to Lex. Lionel Luthor pretty much forced her into doing so. Lex really thinks he established true love; he doesn't always do the right thing, but I think he really loved Lana. And Clark's torn because he really thought Lana was going to marry him and not Lex; something happened in the last episode, Promise, that now their marriage is on thin ice, it's not going as planned. Lana's finding things out about Lex and things about her pregnancy. It's getting a lot darker than it has in years. Lex has a project he's been working on, and he definitely has ulterior motives and he is ambitious, but I think that ambition gets the best of him. He's still trying to hold on; he's trying not to go to the dark side, but it's pretty inevitable.

Q: You're in the sixth year now -

MR: Yeah, we're finishing up our sixth year and next year is the last year.
