Actor Tom Welling was very successful in playing the character of Clark Kent in “Smallville: The Adventures of SuperboyCreated by Alfred Goff and Miles Millar, the series originally ran on The WB and The CW, and went on to run a total of 10 seasons and 217 episodes.
After coming to Earth during a meteor shower, Clark is adopted by farmers Martha and Jonathan Kent, who lived on the farm during his teenage years. Possessing superpowers, he needs to deal with the everyday problems of adolescence, and lead the life of an ordinary young woman.
The producers’ idea was to focus on his story before he became Superman. At first, Welling had no thoughts of becoming an actor. He was discovered by a scout while on vacation in Nantucket.
After that, she moved to Lake George, and began her career as a photo model. He was part of commercials and appeared in one of the music videos of singer Angela Vita. But it was on “Smallville” that Tom gained fame, having outlived the character from the beginning to the end of the series.
The star was born in Putnam Valley, New York, USA and is currently 45 years old. He is married to Jessica Rose Lee and they have two children. One of his most recent jobs was as the grandfather of Sam and Dean Winchester on the series ‘The Winchesters’.
