Julian Sands is taking on his Kryptonian form on Smallville this season!
9/14/2009
Even though Terence Stamp voiced Jor-El for Smallville, Julian Sands has filled the role to take on his Kryptonian form this season.
Jor-El's first appearance will be in the seventh episode titled "Kandor."
As seen in the season finale, Zod (Callum Blue) has ventured to Earth, albeit unaware of Clark (Tom Welling) and who he'll grow to be. Zod has brought a few Kandorians along for the ride — including Jor-El, Clark's biological dad. Sands' casting was first reported by EW's Ausiello.

Back at Comic-Con, executive producers Brian Peterson and Kelly Souders teased that because of the time-parallel caused by Zod, there would be a chance to see a living Jor-El. "You'll learn pretty quickly, in Episode 2, what happens," said Peterson, who also teased that Stamp will be heard again this season as well.
