Supergirl Dean Cain, Helen Slater Join Supergirl

Interesting, I didn't know that. You can see where they were coming from though. Besides, Cain and Hatcher were perfect together, great chemistry.

It was during the audition, apparently they (casting directors) liked him a lot, said they chose him for the part, then the producer picked up his resume from the table and shouted "You have already done this!"

I love being part of the whole Superman lore. If I get a chance to do anything in the films or shows, I embrace it. It's not something I feel pigeonholed into since I've done so many other films and projects. I'm a fan, as well as someone who has gotten to play these characters. I embrace the heck out of it. I'll do it as often as I can. I'm really looking forward to doing some fun stuff on "Supergirl."
