Nicktoons Network is teaming with Marvel Entertainment to bring both Tony Stark and Santa Claws to television in brand-new forums: Iron Man: The Animated Series and Wolverine and the X-Men. Each series will run 26 episodes and premiere in early 2009. My sons can wait... maybe.The plots? Wolverine kicks off with an event that robs the group of Professor X, leaving the likes of Logan, Beast, Storm, Cyclops and Nightcrawler to fend off a future forecast in which giant robots (Sentinels?) rule the world, all the while battling Magneto and his minions.Iron Man , meanwhile, finds Tony fatherless and left to depend on technology for survival as he fights corruption and the everyday pressures of teenage (teenage?) life. — MWM

Chloe, according to lore, may never land the Man of Steel, but she just might woo his best friend. Aaron Ashmore (née the ex of Mars' Veronica, Troy Vandegraff) is joining CW's Smallville this season (premiering Sept. 28) as a semiregular, playing aspiring photojournalist Jimmy Olsen.
But wait, there's more. Read all about it: "He's going to be a love interest for Chloe," Ashmore confirms for TVGuide.com. "They met [off screen] a few summers ago, and now they're reconnecting."
Ashmore's boy-next-door looks make him a natural to play All-American Jimmy — even though he eerily resembles Smallville villain Eric Summers, who just happened to be played by Ashmore's real-lif

TV Guide: On your comedy series Pepper Dennis, you play a TV news reporter who'll humiliate herself if it means getting her story. Share some memorable real-life press encounters.
Rebecca Romijn: Once I went to Rome to do press for X-Men 2. I was sitting on a dais, answering questions, and this guy starts throwing roses at me from the sideline and shouting things in Italian. I don't speak Italian.
