January 15, 2011: Kick Ass Women of The CW

Shadow Poster Quite a few media outlets were in attendance for the Television Critics Association Winter Press Tour, where The CW hosted a "Kick Ass Women of The CW" panel, with Erica Durance (SMALLVILLE) joined by Nina Dobrev (THE VAMPIRE DIARIES), Candice Accola (THE VAMPIRE DIARIES), Maggie Q (NIKITA), Lyndsy Fonseca (NIKITA), and Aly Michalka (HELLCATS).

    "We're getting into the background. My character is instrumental in propelling that mythology," Erica says. "Hopefully, we'll see Superman do what everybody wants him to do. That's pretty much all I can say, but he looks good doing it." Tom Welling looking good? Shocking news. And speaking of her main man, their engagement doesn't mean Lois will be taking the backseat on Smallville. More of a side seat, if you will. "I think given the opportunity, she'd still kick ass, but she kicks [Clark]'s ass a little bit more. They're changing her character a little but more to support him and lift him up, because he's the one doing most of the ass kicking. She still has her opportunities to get dirty, though."

Check out different reports on the panel from Zap2It.com, TVTango.com, AssignmentX.com, StayingInWithVlada.com, and E! Online.

While in other news regarding Lois and Clark's relationship...

    "There will be a big day for them," executive producer Kelly Souders tells TVGuide.com.

    "They're going to have a big moment in their relationship," executive producer Brian Peterson adds. "This last run is about not only his identity as Clark Kent and his growing identity as a hero, but also his identity as a potential husband. That is as much of who he is as a hero."

The CW has also released a new promotional poster image (above right) showing Clark Kent in front of a Superman shadow. An image reminiscent of the "Star Wars: Episode One" poster showing young Anakin's Darth Vader shadow.

Don't forget, the next new episode of "Smallville" airs on Friday, January 28th.
