Since this is the last season of Smallville, the West Coast film industry of B.C.(Canada)is lamenting its departure.
Paul Klassen, business representative for the International Alliance of Theatrical and Stage Employees (IATSE) Local 891, said that more than 200 hundred cast and crew from Vancouver will lose the 9 month earnigs per year that this awesome production gives up.
He also said:
" Smallville will be remembered as one of the most successful series shot in B.C...and it has showcased what B.C. can deliver"
Richard Lucas, president of Vancouver agency Lucas Talent, said that:
"They (Smallville)have been a very respected and respectful part of our industry for many years...There are very few clients that I represent who have not been cast on the show."
Actually, one of this talents was Kristin Kreuk, who performed Lana Lang for 7 seasons, she said:
"It did everything for my career...Smallville cast a lot of local actors, which was really great. It was a really nice environment to work in...The show was incredibly supportive of everybody there...We all really looked after each other and cared for each other"
Fortunately, the pilot of the new show approved by the CW "Hellcats", was shot by many of the same crew who work on Smallville...So, maybe they´ll have a chance to get this new job and we´ll have the chance to still watching a show with a good quality level.
