ELEKTRA RELEASES SMALLVILLE SOUNDTRACK ON 25 FEBRUARY
5/2/03: Elektra Records, The WB Television Network, Warner Bros. Television and Tollin/Robbins Productions have teamed up to create the soundtrack for The WB’s phenomenal hit television show Smallville. The soundtrack is packed with unprecedented added-value components for the upcoming release of Smallville Soundtrack: The Talon Mix (JAN033740) that are worthy of, well, Superman!
By purchasing the CD, fans can explore the world of Smallville, where they will be able to unlock online access to the sold-out first issue of DC Comics’ Smallville comic book; preview chapters of the upcoming DC Comics Smallville novels from Little, Brown and Company and Warner Books; and, among other goodies, tour a 3-D interactive map of the town of Smallville, including the Luthor mansion, The Talon coffeehouse, the Kent farm and much more.
Certain to become coveted Smallville memorabilia for years to come, the collectors’ assets will be made available exclusively on the 25 February CD release. Access to the comic book, novels and map will be made available through special CD key technology.
Among the artists included on Smallville Soundtrack: The Talon Mix are Remy Zero, creators of the Smallville theme song, “Save Me”; and VonRay, who contribute the album’s first single, “Inside Out,” (which was performed acoustically at The Talon in the episode “Ryan”), as well as songs by such acclaimed artists as Weezer, Ryan Adams, Sixpence None the Richer, Lifehouse, Five For Fighting, Phantom Planet, Eva Cassidy, The Flaming Lips and new Elektra artists Steadman (who will perform at The Talon in the episode “Fever,” to air February 18) and AM Radio.

JACK NICHOLSON OFFERED DEAD ZONE ROLE
12/12/03:Jack Nicholson is reported to have been offered the role of Death in the new series of The Dead Zone, which is currently premiering here in the UK on the Sci·Fi channel.
When Michael Piller, the show’s executive producer, learned that Jack was a huge fan of the US hit drama series based on the eponymous book by Stephen King, he immediately offered him the role. Unfortunately Mr Nicholson had to decline due to publicity commitments to About Schmidt, but with the prospect of a third series of looming could there still be a role for the screen legend in The Dead Zone?
The Dead Zone, which stars Brat Pack actor Anthony Michael Hall, premieres on the Sci·Fi channel Mondays at 9pm (repeated Sundays at 9pm).
