Helen Slater confirms appearance with Julian Sands in Smallville

Helen Slater talks to Den of Geek about Supergirl, Smallville and an appearance with Julian Sands in the tenth and final season of Smallville. Here are the highlights.

I kind of fear that if the film was done now it’d be a very different beast, and it would be sexualised, which, in my view, would be the wrong way to go.
I think you’re right. Even when we’re on Smallville, and I’m about to go to Vancouver next week to shoot that, that Laura was very sexualised. They had her in ripped off t-shirts, cut-offs, very sexual in Smallville, which is television. I can’t imagine what it’d be like on the big screen.

The other way you’ve come full circle too is with Smallville, a seeming alumni club for those involved with Superman!
I have to say I think it’s my favourite job in the last 10 years. It’s so fun, and then when I did the conventions the fans loved the connection. It’s been such a positive experience. They’re so nice over there, and they make me very goddess-y over there! [laughs] Lots of make-up, and beautiful hair.

So, you’re just doing some stuff on the final season…?
Julian Sands and I are doing an episode. I wish it was more because it was so much fun doing it. But I guess they’ve got it all written. We’re just doing one episode.
