We’ve hoped beyond hope that the upcoming Arrowverse crossover would feature a nod or two to Smallville, the series that arguabley started the Arrowverse before the was even an arrow.
And we saw the image of the Kent farm from that Samllavile we had high hopes, although it looks like it’s also the home of Tyler Hoechlin’s Clark Kent in the Arrowverse.
However, Arrow/Oliver Queen star Stephen Amell shared an image on Twitter (below) that has us fanboying like mad.

The image seems to be in some sort of boardroom that Amells says he’s ‘pretty excited’ about and in it are Tom Welling and Michael Rosenbaum, the actors who played Clark Kent and Lex Luthor in Smallville.
Now, we already know the Elseworlds crossover event will see different worlds and realities crash together… we’ll meet Batwoman in Gotham and Flash star John Wesley Ship will be in it as his original 90s TV versin of the character.
So we reckon there’s a very real possibility that we will see Lex and Clark in the crossover in some Smallville-related capacity.
So, what else? Dean Cain and Teri Hatcher as Clark and Lois from The New Adventures of Superman (they’re already in Supergirl, so…)? Lynda Carter as an older incarnation of the 70s Wonder Woman (she’s already in Supergirl, so…)?
We don’t know what to expect anymore but having the Smallville connection confirmed would be awesome.
Where else the crossover goes, well, we can only imagine.
Thoughts?
Oh, and just in case that’s not enough excitement, here’s the first full promo for the Elseworlds event:

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
