‘’"Smallville’s" Michael Rosenbaum Writing Pilot For Fox Network!’’

Sexy Lex (y) Luthor, aka actor, Michael Rosenbaum from ‘’Smallville’ is one happy camper. The veteran of all 5 seasons of the hit WB Television Network series is now branching out into different areas of TV and film production, adding to his resume in his already well proven acting gifts in front of the camera.

Zap2it.com reports that Rosenbaum is collaborating with ‘’Smallville’’ Executive Producer, Greg Beeman, to write the teleplay for the Fox Television Network pilot, ‘’Welcome To Paradise’’.

The pilot, a liberal, semi-autobiographical, humorous take on Rosenbaum’s own childhood and younger years, will trace the course of the teenage years of a boy whose family moves from New York to Indiana. Rosenbaum and his own family actually did indeed move from the Big Apple to Indiana in the mid 1980’s.

Rosenbaum says in ‘’The Hollywood Reporter’’, ‘’It’s pretty much about how he gets through life. He’s got this crazy mom who is a child at heart, because she married early and never got to be a child.’’

Rosenbaum goes on to say that the concept for the show sprang from his documenting his teen years to kill time while on the set of ‘’Smallville’’, during breaks in filming, kidding that ‘’I was too cheap to get therapy.’’

Rosenbaum took his work to Beeman for a look see, and the joint effort of the 2 in developing Rosenbaum’s writings into an actual pilot, was born.

This is Rosenbaum’s first endeavor at writing a TV pilot, and his chops must be pretty impressive as the Fox Television Network, already optioned the pilot.

Rosenbaum will also take a very hands on approach to the show, acting as Executive Producer.

We’re proud of you Michael and we think it’s just like a Superman, to be so business and creatively savvy, highlighting how very talented and multi-faceted you are, both in front of and behind the camera. Can’t wait to see your new show! What’s down the road for this dynamic auteur? Hmmm. Michael Rosenbaum…Director?! Watch out Spielberg!
