Cole Sprouse Is Petitioning For Cast Transportation After KJ Apa's Accident; Just Like The 'Smallville' Cast Did For Tom Welling

We’re so thankful that KJ Apa is okay after a scary car crash that happened recently.

The Riverdale star was heading back to his hotel after a 16-hour day on the set, and fell asleep at the wheel.

Reports say that co-star Cole Sprouse is petitioning for the cast to have drivers available for them because of the long hours they work — something that Smallville stars Tom Welling and Michael Rosenbaum will probably support, since they did the same thing.

“All of us are driving to a location at 4:30 a.m. with one eye open and you’re in every scene,” Michael, who played Lex Luthor, revealed in a new podcast. “I think it got to a point where we all like signed a letter for you because we’re like ‘You’re going to kill Superman.’”

Tom adds, “[It was] Unbeknownst to me, because I was just told it was already done, but you all signed something, because we weren’t allowed to have drivers for some reason.”

He continued, “I was getting up at 4:30, driving an hour and a half, working an 18-hour day then driving back, sleeping five hours. And you guys were like, ‘Well, he’s gonna die. He’s gonna run into a tree and the show’s gonna be over.’ So you guys kind of gave up, you waived your rights to ‘If one had a driver, everybody had a driver.’ So, I got a driver and it was a big difference.”

We hope something will happen, because this shouldn’t have happened at all.
