Welling, Panettiere Pick Up Pilots

It looks like Clark Kent himself, Tom Welling, and Heroes' Hayden Panettiere are movin' on up in the world; each is signed on to produce dramatic pilots for the CW.

Welling, who is co-executive producing the current season of Smallville, will exec produce Hellcats, about competitive college cheerleading. He's teaming up with Kevin Murphy (Caprica, Valentine, Desperate Housewives), who wrote the pilot and is executive producing as well. The show is described as Bring It On meets Election.
Panettiere, who is new to behind-the-scenes work, is jumping on HMS with writer Amy Holden Jones (Mystic Pizza, Indecent Proposal). That show is apparently about – get excited – a "sexy freshman class" at Harvard Medical School with the story being told from the perspective of one of the young ladies in said sexy class.
