The Official Michael Rosenbaum Thread

[Webhead2006]

well really if he is back for just one or two episodes there is many ways to go about not shaving his head.

 

[Syncos]

Hurm.

Ausiello has some cryptic news about Michael Rosenbaum.

Question: At the end of "Bride" episode of Smallville we see someone I'm presuming is Lex. Will Michael Rosenbaum be making his return to Smallville anytime soon? -- Gilles
Ausiello: Okay, I have to choose my words carefully here: There is no deal…currently in place…for Michael Rosenbaum to…return...to Smallville.

What the hell does *that* mean?

Hrm. I think it means he wont be returning as a regular...
They've probably got him in talks to do a guest spot or two.

 

[LadyVader]

Or Lex will be played by somebody else.

NOOooOOOooOOOoo!

 

[Webhead2006]

well if they can get michael to return in the flesh but do audio work we will probably see more of this body double used again in future episodes and just hear michael's voice.

I agree.

Man, I hope they work it out. I would just LOVE to see Lex show up in the grand finale'.

Rosenbuam Discusses "Batman: The Brave And The Bold" And More,

The World's Finest recently sat down with actor Michael Rosenbaum, a fan-favorite for his work on Smallville and Justice League, to discuss his role as Deadman on Batman: The Brave and The Bold and much more.

Michael Rosenbaum Interview

 

[Webhead2006]

saw his episode the other day. Thought he did well as deadman, though loved his work as flash in jl/jlu.

 

[The Caped Knight]

Yeah he was good in Batman : The Brave & the Bold as deadman, But their's no deny that after his outstanding portrayal as Lex Luthor on "smallville" for Seven straight Seasons . His next masterpiece was his role as Wally West / The Flash on JL/JLU & kid flash on Teen Titans .

So much so I'd love to see him star as the Scarlet Speedster in live action .

 

[The Caped Knight]

badass Lex in his Kryptonite power suit .

 

[Prison Mike]

what does that have to do with Michael Rosenbaum?

So much so I'd love to see him star as the Scarlet Speedster in live action .

If he was a bit younger, he would be a great Wally.

 

[Webhead2006]

yea really nothing to do with michael lol. Very cool looking power suit lex though for that upcoming game.

 

[Webhead2006]

Well it looks like Michael has finally got a nice post smallville role:

The Return of Lex Luthor!
Author: Clint Morris Date: Monday, March 16th, 2009 Time: 10:04 pm
Former ''Smallville'' star Michael Rosenbaum will star in a new comedy pilot for NBC.

Rosenbaum, better known as bald baddie Lex Luthor on the CW series, will join Nick D'Agosto (TVs "Heroes") for an untitled Justin Adler series which revolves around a grown-up family.

D'Agosto will play the youngest sibling, who brings his girlfriend to meet the family. Rosenbaum will play the married middle sibling freaked out over his recently adopted baby.

With this new gig (should it be picked up) on NBC, it's safe to say Rosenbaum won't be reprising his role as Lex on "Smallville" any time soon - if ever again.

The Hollywood Reporter has more...

I wish him the best of luck with this new show and hope it does go to series. I would love to see him in more work that is non smallville related. I wish him the best with his acting career. Though if this show does go to series i hope he would still be willing to return to smallville next season for series ender like he has stated in the past few months he would be open to doing.

Moviehole is getting bit a presumptuous about Rosey eveer playing Lex again. You know how many pilots bomb out and never get a series order? I mean Justin Hartley's done 3 pilots since his first Smallville appearance, and none were ever picked up.

and even if it gets picked up for series, people still have to watch it so it won't get canceled quickly. I do wish him well, even though I think he's a better dramatic actor than a comic one.

 

[Bim]

I wish Michael the best, i think he's a fine actor. I sure miss him as Lex in Smallville though

 

[The Caped Knight]

I'm very curious to see how tptb are going to handle the character of Lex Luthor on the series (I doubt that he actually died in the episode "Requiem") . Considering this character major important in the superman mythology He's Superman's Arch-Nemesis .

 

[Webhead2006]

i still say the lex in the truck was just a clone he had set up in a situation like that.

Very nice list but I can't help notice that Robin /Chris O'Donell and Batgirl/Alicia Silverstone are missing yet they remembered Birds of Prey. Seems really lazy to miss out the obvious and keep the obscure ones. Jimmy Olsen isn't there either

 

[Prison Mike]

Tom Welling isn't in the Superman one either...

just saw he's in the Superboy one. lol

 

[Serene]

Tom Welling isn't in the Superman one either...

He has a panel all to himself.

#43 - Superboy Among Men: Tom Welling plays a younger version of Clark Kent/Superman in the hit WB show, 'Smallville'.

 

[Prison Mike]

wasn't there a Superboy tv show in the 80s? they should have put that actor in the panel along with Tom

 

[Bruce_Wayne29]

Michael is great. He just recently sent autographs to me, my girlfriend and her father who is also a big fan of the show.
