The CW is working on a show to replace Smallville if the young-Superman soap opera ends this year. The Graysons will focus on Dick Grayson before he became Robin and joined up with Bruce Wayne. In other words, it'll be about a kid hanging out at the circus with his acrobat parents, who are doomed to die due to trapeze sabotage. Or maybe not: apparently Smallville exec producers Kelly Souders and Brian Peterson have come up with a "unique take" on the character, now called D.J. Grayson. He'll deal with rivals, first love, and all that growing-up shit. But don't worry: McG is involved in developing the show as well. [Variety]
