Dean Cain (born Dean George Tanaka; July 31, 1966) is an American actor. His mother, actress Sharon Thomas, married his adoptive father, director Christopher Cain; when Dean was three. Though he grew up in Malibu and attended Santa Monica High School, his career plans favored professional football over acting. While at Princeton, he completed a history major, dated Brooke Shields for two years, and set an NCAA record for interceptions in a season. After signing with the Buffalo Bills, a knee injury ended his pro career before it began. Though he had already played a part in his father's The Stone Boy (1984), he went through the usual route of commercials and tv-parts (notably, "Beverly Hills, 90210" (1990) in 1990) before landing his break-through role as Superman/Clark Kent in the series "Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman" (1993).

As the world demands answers about the mysterious hero in their skies, Superman struggles to balance his private life with humanity’s growing mistrust. When brilliant industrialist Lex Luthor orchestrates a campaign to discredit him, hiring the volatile Atomic Skull and Metallo to destroy him, Superman finds an unlikely ally in the mysterious Dinah Lance—the Black Canary. At the same time, his cousin Kara Zor-El steps into the light as Supergirl, challenging Clark to embrace his Kryptonian legacy more openly. Caught between human suspicion, Luthor’s schemes, and an unstoppable force of destruction, Superman must prove once and for all that he is Earth’s greatest protector—no matter the cost.
