Two more days folks – can you stand it?! I know I can’t! In the meantime, keep the “Absolute Justice” news coming!
Michael Shanks spoke with Jenna Busch with “Newsarama” about the Smallville event coming up this Friday. Read a snippet below regarding Clark and Hawkgirl:
Newsarama: Everyone is wondering what sort of advice you’ll be giving to Clark (Tom Welling) and if you’ll discuss anything about Hawkgirl.
Shanks: Um, in the original draft of the script there was some illusion to what the past relationship was with Hawkgirl, specific about what happened to her and how this affected Carter and whatnot. And there’s references to her that are left in the script that are dealt with and you get the point without having to talk too much and without having to explain too much. It’s talked about with Clark, it’s talked about with Oliver at different points without getting too, too detailed about the goings on. But it is a weight that Carter Hall wears around his neck. He talks about that with Clark, both at the middle and at the end of the show, and it’s affect on him, but there is no particular correlation between Clark and his relationships that Carter draws a parallel between. You could draw a parallel to Oliver’s sense of detachment, which I think is part of their agreeing to disagree or at least teaching each other something.
