UPDATED 7/27/09: DC Comics character "Roulette" appears in this episode, and a dollar says that's also the episode title, but we cannot confirm that last part.

Does she own the "fight club" we see Oliver fighting in?

 

[Prison Mike]

Is Roulette the one in the JLU episode where Wildcat is cage fighting and Green Arrow and Black Canary try to save him? She was the woman running the cage matches right?

That is correct, sir

 

[Prison Mike]

then I think you're right, KBX. She'll probably be running the cage matches that Oliver is in...

 

[Fresh Prince]

Should be a fun episode.

 

[Webhead2006]

Should be an interesting episode. Cant wait to see what they are doing with her.

 

[The Caped Knight]

The episode is called

The Cat and the Canary

 

[ZIPBAGS]

Virginia Madsen who did the voice of Roulette in the JLU episode should play her. She is smokin.

 

[Webhead2006]

Could work. Would be a nice homage to fans of jlu.

 

[COMPO]

whoa, she is. what's the with snake tattoo on roulette ?

 

[Prison Mike]

yeah, she is very hot but also too high profile for Smallville. They will probably pick some young Canadian actress.

 

[Fresh Prince]

Why she too high profile for SV? Is she a well known actress?

 

[Prison Mike]

Virginia Madsen? Yeah, she's pretty well known.

 

[The Incredible Hulk]

except that she's pushing almost 50 yrs old at the moment.

 

[Fresh Prince]

She still look good though.

 

[Brainiac 8]

except that she's pushing almost 50 yrs old at the moment.

For her age, she is still smoking hot though.

 

[Webhead2006]

well it wouldnt matter if she is said age we have no clue how old the character is for the episode and what she is doing yet. As for her status well we have gotten some other big names through the years and for a one shot episode i dont think it would be to much of a problem. Though more likely then not it will end up being some random probably some semi known canadian actress for the role. Since they tend to stick with more canadian actors for certain roles.

 

[The Incredible Hulk]

Dude, she's 20+ years older than the rest of the JL. She may look good for her age but she'd stick out like a sore thumb next to the rest of the cast.

You guys and your want to cast voice actors in live action roles. I never got it? it's like the people who wanted Mark Hammill to play the Joker in TDK because he was good on a cartoon. it makes no sense.

 

[Prison Mike]

Besides, Smallville always cast young. Even if the character is old in the comics, they can spin it into a younger version.

UPDATED 8/17/09: Oliver starts the episode's teaser at a speakeasy where he has maxed out his credit line and is generally down on life. He asks for a blowfish knowing that it could be delay. Roulette enters using the name of "Victoria Sinclair," wearing a red dress with high slits that reveal an elaborate dragon tattoo. She makes a reference to Oliver looking like "a guy down on his luck;" when he sees her, he says he thinks his luck "just turned around." Oliver admits to her that he's lost a certain lust for life, and she invites him to play a game with her. She then convinces Oliver to take a pill which makes his eyesight blur and he falls for the floor
- Later Oliver and "Victoria" are running, and he asks her what her "game' is. She tells him if he hadn't taken the pill, the people she works for would have killed her.
- "Victoria" is shot and her blood splatters all over Oliver's white business suit. Then Oliver is tasered by a cop who believes him to be a killer, and he is arrested and taken in to be questioned. He is released by an FBI agent who knows about the "game."
- Clark and Chloe share a scene where Clark is presented with an image of Alia (a Kryptonian character from earlier in the season).
- Chloe sees a symbol which disturbs her and refers to a "woman from the future" when talking to Clark - possibly talking about Alia there too.

Was just reading about this, i wonder how this episode will turn out and whats going on with roulette.

wonder if the game is how long he can last before he switches to Green Arrow or how long he survives or something with the police on his tail.

 

[Webhead2006]

Should be interesting to see how this episode comes out.

 

[Webhead2006]

posted this in spoiler thread, Steph Song has been cast as roulette.

 

[KBX]

Steph Song

pretty woman(of course she is, this is Smallville casting we are talking about) if she does turn out to be Roulette.
