Entertainment Weekly reports that Jaren Brandt Bartlett has been cast as Jaime Reyes/Blue Beetle in the 17th episode of "Smallville," titled "Booster." Eric Martsolf ("Days of Our Lives") is set to play Booster Gold.
In related news, The CW has provided us with photos from the February 4th episode, titled "Beacon," which is described as follows:
MARTHA KENT COMES HOME — Clark is surprised to see Martha on the news speaking at a pro-vigilante rally. However, surprise quickly turns to horror when he and Lois watch as Martha gets shot on national television. Meanwhile, Lionel reveals himself to the world and reclaims LuthorCorp from Tess and Oliver. Lois and Chloe decide to cheer Clark up by showing him videos from thousands of vigilante supporters professing their support for The Blur.

UPDATE: TV Guide adds that Sebastian Spence has been cast to play inventor-turned-superhero Ted Kord. He will also appear in the Geoff Johns-penned episode, "Booster."
"We meet Ted Kord as a captain of industry who has lost a valuable weapon…the scarab," executive producer Brian Peterson said. "He’ll cross paths with Booster Gold, Jaime Reyes, and, of course, Clark."
