Growing up is tough for any teenager. But it's even tougher when
you have mysterious super powers you don't understand and must
not reveal to others - powers that
keep you from fitting in with the
everyday high school world of
football, friends and dating.
Teenage anxieties and smalltown
secrets give the Superman
mythology an exciting new spin
in Smallville. Tom Welling plays
Clark Kent, the adolescent
whose hoped-for romance with
Lana Lang (Kristin Kreuk) is
frustrated by the kryptonite in
her necklace. Michael Rosenbaum is
Clark's self-proclaimed steadfast
friend Lex Luthor. Inside the idyllic
community of Smallville, the intertwined
destinies of these three begin to take
shape while an imminent danger emerges:
a high-school prank has spawned a vengeful
villain who has acquired super powers of his own.
