The VPN's Official Description (posted 20/4/2010) - THE WAR BEGINS. SPECIAL GUEST STAR PAM GRIER (’Jackie Brown’, ‘The L Word’) RETURNS - When Mia (Elise Gatien) is kidnapped by Checkmate upon arrival, Oliver (Justin Hartley) gets Chloe (Allison Mack) on the case which begins to unravel when she uncovers Perry’s (Michael McKean) involvement with the infamous Amanda Waller (special guest star Pam Grier). Having teamed up with Emil (Alessandro Juliani), the two have created a league of metahumans who, under their control, are sent to find Watchtower’s Headquarters! Meanwhile, Bruce’s (Christian Bale) darkest secret is revealed.

Amanda Waller is believed to play a bigger part in this episode, and with Watchtower airing two episodes before its sister show begins airing, it could be that the producers are trying to lead her back into the city of Odyssey.
UPDATED 23/2/2010 - This marks the first appearance of Mia Dearden, later-to-be-known-as DC Comics Character "Speedy", the wacky sidekick of Green Arrow! -Pam Grier will reprise her role as Amanda Waller, wrapping up a certain arc of this season, that began in the premiere. -Title posted.

Sources also confirm that this episode marks the blossuming of the Chloe/Oliver (Chlollie) relationship, as they begin to rekindle the flame a little. In fact, all this trouble begins to surface on their date!

NEWS POSTED FEBRUARY 23, 2010. Scoop: Exclusive role taken by Deschanel!Sources exclusively confirm that Emily Deschanel, from the hit television series Bones, has booked herself a recurring guest role as the notorious Jean Loring -- fated to become a very dark, villainous character! The DC Comics character is set to appear somewhere in the second half of the season, setting up a rather key role in the second year of Watchtower! Rumors have circulated that if the first season, plus the two hour crossover finale event, goes well, Deschanel could very well join the cast as a series regular for the next season. "The character, Jean, has a lot of development to do before stepping into the role of the doomed Eclipso," the producers reveal, "we're hoping to have her show up in the same episode we introduce Harvey Dent!" In the comics, Jean Loring suffered from a mental breakdown, that soon led her into an asylum where a supernatural entity, known as Eclipso, manipulated her into becoming its new host! Maybe, if things go as planned, she could be the first character we see entering Arkham Asylum, seeing as the series does take place in Gotham! "There's so much we can do for this character, and hopefully, she'll be a great addition to the show!" they concluded, excited about this sudden confirmation! Expect to see Bones star Emily Deschanel in Watchtower this season, which premieres April 19th!

NEWS POSTED FEBRUARY 20, 2010. Scoop: Triangle for 'Trinity'Having recieved its official release date, spoilers, and news have been flowing in fast about one of the networks most anticipated shows of the fall. Its latest, a love triangle. Just as Quentin begins to fall for the spectacular Ms. Lana Lang, she begins to set her eyes on Jake. Its not unlike Lana to get caught up in one of these triangles, but the producers reveal it'll be a lot emotional than her previous 'wash and repeat' love life that played out on Smallville. "Just as you see the opportunity for Lana and Quentin to become something more, Jake comes into their lives," they revealed, "And Jake reminds Lana so much of Clark. Problem is, with her still damaged after the last moment she shared with Clark, she sets her eyes on Jake, to find something with him that she had before." As for poor old Quentin, maybe next time young chap!

NEWS POSTED FEBRUARY 20, 2010. Scoop: 'Cheshire' Gets Her Claws On 'Trinity'. Looks like 'Trinity' will get in touch with its mythology as well this season, as DC Comics Character 'Cheshire' makes her way to Lana Lang's city! She is said to be portrayed by Jenna Dewan -- arriving on scene as one of Amanda Waller's hired out assassins. In the comics, she was apart of many team affiliations, but her origins prove her to be a highly skilled martial artist, with poisonous fingernails added to the mix. As for what kind of story, or origin, the producers will introduce her to have, you can expect a massive throwdown between her and the main characters!

NEWS POSTED FEBRUARY 19, 2010. Scoop: J. August Richard talks 'Angel'With Angel's final few episodes still on there way, with no release date yet to be announced, we managed to reach series alumni J. August Richards who was only set to star in half of the season. Luckily for us, he has info on what's to come, who will be showing up, and who will be leaving. "When the series returns, you will begin to see how everything sort of narrows down towards the final few episodes," he revealed, "Especially after my last arc begins to wrap up." On the topic of Andy Hallet's last episode, and appearance, he confirms a 'villainous return'. "From what I've been told, Lorne returns with some important info on this coming apocalypse," he confirms, "And the episode ends on one of the biggest shockers of the season." When questioned about his final few episodes, he willingly spill the beans on his character's sudden turn towards the dark side of the force. "The first few episodes back, we'll see Gunn struggling to come to terms with the fact that he's a vampire now," he began, "And soon his choices will be shaped around his anger towards Angel." When asked about what to look out for when the show returns, the actor reveals "Wesley returns from beyond the hell dimension they were up against in the first quarter of the season, uncovering that its bleeding into the city again." As for the rest of the season, " You can expect a lot of epic moments for the characters, a few sacrifices being made, other casualties that affects Angel personally, and Wolfram & Hart will finally arrive in its truest form."Anyone else dying for this show to finally return?

A promotional trailer was released, to try and help tune in some more viewers, but we're not sure if that will even help the show out of this one!

NEWS POSTED FEBRUARY 7, 2010. Scoop: 'Watchtower' is Officially Online!Its Official! That tagline never gets old... No, but seriously, not only has the first episode finished filming, but I managed to finally sit down with television goddess herself, Allison Mack! Here's what was to be said, spoilers below: VPtoday: Nine years as a sidekick, and now your character, Chloe Sullivan, finally gets to step out into the spotlight and show us what we've been waiting for, for so many years! How does it feel to extend the character into a whole new line of mythos?
Allison Mack: [laughs] Well its been so fun being a pivotal part to the upbringing of Superman, and being on Smallville for so long has been a great experience. I was actually set to leave that year, to go off and explore new roots of acting, and kick starting my own network with my best friend Kristin [Kreuk]. But when the producers came to me and said that a new aspiring network, the VPN, wanted to continue Chloe's story, branching her out into a whole new world, mentioned in the series run, I was excited to see what they wanted to do! I think its been amazing that Chloe has lasted so long, and its really because of the fan base that she's become somewhat of a heroic icon in television.
VPtoday: She's a very hard character to hate.
Allison Mack: [laughs] Well ... she's not everyone's cup of tea.
VPtoday: So the first episode is finally finished. What can you tell us about the series premiere?
Allison Mack: I love the first episode. We've recieved the next two scripts, but the first episode will always be close to my heart. It really jumps straight into things from the get-go, explaining most of the backstory in very important flashbacks. Chloe is in a tough place at the start, sort of shielding herself off from the rest of the world; trying to be as anti-social as possible. But she soon drops that wall, and learns to get back to the mission she planned in the beginning, before moving to Gotham.
VPtoday: How would you explain the Bruce/Chloe relationship, at its earliest stage in the season? A lot of fans, during the run of Smallville, have created many, many, many fanfics about the two forming a romantic attraction. Any of that happening this season?
Allison Mack: I don't think Chloe and Bruce ... [laughs] ... I don't know, actually. I mean, you'll definately see something, non romantic, in the series premiere, that sets up a good overal arc for the season, but Chloe's more infactuated with the man in the green tights. [laughs].
VPtoday: Ooh. So the Chlollie relationship is still going strong then, huh?
Allison Mack: That's where the writers seem to be taking them. They've spent three months apart from each other, and they're connection instantly reforms, their flame rekindled so to speak. I really love the couple! I think its got more creative flair than the Chlark pairing, as they're both in the same sort of place, both know when to put the fate of the world before everything else. And you'll get to see them slowly coming back together as the season progresses.
VPtoday: Rumors have circulated that the premiere will be very promising to those comic fans out there. With a lot of DC Characters turning up to thicken the plot. That true?
Allison Mack: Oh, of course! Gotham being a much darker, demonic like atmosphere, we really show how gruesome it really is. I think the Huntress is one of the darkest characters of the bunch, with her backstory explained. She's a very complex character, that will be thoroughly explored deeper and deeper. We have Black Mask coming into the show, the Roman Maffia, Falcone crime family, sort of the same there, but those comic fans won't be disappointed!
VPtoday: What makes this show so compelling is that the lead character, the hero, isn't a superpowered being, or dresses up to fight crime. She's human. And her ability to find the truth behind anything is what makes the character so amazing. Any big inner conflict stories popping up with Chloe, that prove to be challenging for her emotionally?
Allison Mack: Yeah, I think thats what draws me into the character so much. She's strong, independant, and more importantly human. Her curiosity does usually get her into some trouble, but she really is just seeking the truth, behind everything. This series will deal with a lot of "what it means to be a hero" stuff, and with her not being super-power-inclined, she really struggles in protecting the city. And Chloe has definately picked up a good few fighting moves along the way, throughout her time in Smallville/Metropolis, but she always seems to get hurt more so than her enemy. Its kind of ... well ... she sort of hates the fact that she's spending so much time on trying to save Gotham, that she ends up being the one who has to be saved. So she's got a hero complex there, which, again, will be explored.
VPtoday: Where would you like to see Chloe in the next five years? Would you be around that long to portray her if the opportunity still exists?
Allison Mack: Hmm... I think its too late now to pull out, after playing the character for so long, right? [laughs] Chloe is like a role model. I love playing her. I am always constantly thinking 'what would Chloe do in this situation'. I think her attributes, personality, everything, has moulded me into the woman I am today, and hey, if Watchtower reaches five seasons, or more, I guess I wouldn't turn it down. On the question of where I'd like to see Chloe in five years ... [thinks] ... Happy. I'd really like to see Chloe move out of her darker attitude, and sort of evolve back into the person I know she can be. Right now, Chloe is sort of in that place, but her dark side sometimes unleashes. I'd like to see her, five years from now, have control over her emotions, and be the kind-hearted woman I know she can be.
VPtoday: Final question, I know you've got a busy schedule! Perry White is on the show ... how long is he set to stick around, and how does he view Chloe. Will he learn of Watchtower?
Allison Mack: Ahhh! Thats a mouthful! [laughs] Yes! Michael McKean is a series regular on the show, playing a brilliant interpretation of Perry White. He is so amazing! I love him so much! As for his longevity on the show, I'm not sure. Originally he was signed on for a six episode contract, and would remain in the second half of the season, sort of pushing him towards his mythos. But at the moment, I think he's on for the full season, and could possibly return. Oh man, you'll have to see the series premiere to really grasp his view on Chloe. Its a really touching moment they share. I love shooting scenes with Michael! [laughs] But I don't think he'll learn about Watchtower. That'd be like Perry learning Clark is Superman, not gonna happen ...
VPtoday: Thank you for sitting down with me today! You're an amazing actor, a great inspiration, and I wish you the best of luck with Watchtower!
Allison Mack: Thank you so much!!
VPtoday: Watchtower premieres April 19th, 2010. Don't miss out! You can expect an exlusive clip from the premiere "Legend" next month, along with a promo that, I have viewed, and looks pretty darn awesome, if I do say so myself! And, thats a wrap! |
