Superman Actor Tom Welling Shot Only One Scene For ‘Crisis On Infinite Earths’

Tom Welling Superman Crisis on Infinite Earths Arrowverse Smallville

Superman actor Tom Welling apparently only shot one scene for the upcoming Arrowverse crossover Crisis On Infinite Earths.

Smallville fans were delighted to find out that Tom Welling was returning to the role of Superman for the upcoming Crisis On Infinite Earths crossover, which will feature multiple Supermen. It turns out that Smallville actor’s much anticipated return to the role of Superman will more than likely be just one scene if we go on the word a fan who met Tom Welling this past weekend.

At the Wizard World Convention in Austin, a fan got the chance to ask Tom Welling how long his role in Crisis On Infinite Earths would be. Tom Welling told the fan that he only shot one scene, one day for Crisis On Infinite Earths, which would be his first return to the role of Superman in eight years.

You can check out the tweet from the fan below.

Fans may be disappointed to discover that Tom Welling’s outing as Superman in Crisis On Infinite Earths is so short, but there’s no indication as to how long this scene is. Beyond that, things can always change in the editing bay and we could be getting multiple scenes using the footage that Tom Welling shot. Seeing as how stacked Crisis On Infinite Earths is with Supermen, perhaps it’s best that Tom Welling’s role as Superman is brief, giving equal focus to Tyler Hoechlin and Brandon Routh’s Supermen. The only way to know how long Tom Welling’s role in Crisis On Infinite Earths is to simply watch it. Luckily, the wait isn’t too long for the upcoming Arrowverse crossover as it begins in less than a month!

Crisis on Infinite Earths has been teased since the very first episode of The Flash, where a newspaper headline from the year 2024 revealed the Barry Allen’s fate was to disappear during a “crisis.” However, the fifth season finale of the Grant Gustin series accelerated this when the original newspaper headline changed the date of the event from 2024 to 2019. To add to this, the seventh season finale of Stephen Amell’s Arrow set up Oliver Queen’s role in the next crossover by having him join the Monitor on a mission to warn other worlds of the crisis, as part of the arrangement the Emerald Archer made in order to save the lives of both The Flash and Supergirl.

Crisis On Infinite Earths will span two quarters and consist of Arrow, The Flash, Supergirl, Legends of Tomorrow, and Batwoman. The Arrowverse crossover will launch with three episodes in December before concluding with two additional episodes in January. Stay tuned for the latest news on Superman actor Tom Welling and Crisis on Infinite Earths.
