This is an interesting tidbit. I take it the first few episodes will lean heavily into Phoebe/Clark, and then open us up to the whole "supernatural war" aspect of the show. Can't wait! It's going to be very exciting to play off of this! While Phoebe and Clark are really the main characters here, it's going to go deeper than that. Like why this town? What's so special about it? And it's fun because I have written a whole history of Blackridge (sort of, still a work in progress) and there is so much layers that it's going to be fun to unravel during the shows run. Evelyn originally was written as a one off character who would introduce into the world and then just fade away. But as time went on, the show needed a big bad and so it was her. Then I thought who is she? And well, it just worked out. It connected her to the bigger story I wanted to tell and actually helps lead us into the bigger bad. As for them, Evelyn knows WHO they are. But in the long run, they are someone you don't want to mess with. They have a deep rooted history in Blackridge. Phoebe and Clark happen fast. I will say that. But it's like, young love that just blossumed quickly. I think it's because they found they can trust each other and respect each other. Clark needs someone like Phoebe and Phoebe needs someone like him. And like you said, this does start a bigger journey. Phoebe and Clark's love story is a good core for the series and I'm excited to develop it along in the future. Clark's journey is going to be fun. He's a boy who just lost his parents, scared to live life, then he meets a girl and it changes. But then he sees that things aren't the way he thought. He sees his family kept things from him and he's going to be questioning everything. Evelyn has a plan. She is going to get her revenge, whatever it takes. And it's going to open up some fun drama. Bennett was hard. While I wish I could just throw him into the frey with everyone, it just wasn't working. The same thing happened with Bradley and Mal. It felt like I was trying to do too much all at the same time. Bennett right now is the human friend that keeps us grounded in some sort of realisim. But towards the end, he's thrusted into the story and everyone realizes that maybe keeping Bennett out wasn't for the best. He's going to be getting bigger stories in the future, but right now, Bennett is taking on the side lines. Still there though and ready for the fight.

They are right now in the new love stage of their relationship. - Clark’s family history is deeply rooted in the history of Blackridge and in the supernatural world.

CASTING: MEET THE ADAMSNo love story would ever be complete without a little bit of family drama. We can confirm that Lyndsy Fonseca and Luke Evans will have a recurring role throughout Season One of Nightfall. Lyndsy will play Chloe Adams, Clark's older sister. She is described to be a very empowered woman. And after the death of her parents, she is tasked to protect her older brother from the darkness that is threatning their town. Chloe isn't the only Adams we will be meeting this season.
Luke Evans will be playing Fredrick Adams, Clark and Chloe's Uncle, their Father's older brother. He has an interesting past with his family and that since he and his brother lived two very different lives. Fredrick is a character that will do anything to win. Chloe fears that having her Uncle back in their lives after losing their parents could cause problems for her trying to protect Clark. We will meet Chloe in 1x01 and Fredrick will make his first appearance in 1x03.

Loving all the spoilers so far. And the titles are all really interesting, too. I hope the show doesn't rush too quickly into a Phoebe/Clark romance like some of the spoilers suggest, but regardless, I'm excited to see how their journey plays out. Can't wait for this to start airing, Brian! The Phoebe and Clark romance does start to bloom early. Like first kisses, small dates and stuff like that. But it really isn't all the way in your face. The focus I wanted to put on was that what both Phoebe and Clark want is something normal, and what's more normal than young love. Hopefully it works out the way I hope.
