Tom Welling mini-bio: He spent his early boyhood in Wisconsin before moving to Delaware in third grade. His family moved again, this time to Okemos, Michigan, just after Welling's freshman year in high school. There, he lived with his father, mother, two elder sisters, and younger brother. While on vacation with friends in Nantucket in the spring of 1997, Welling was approched by an Abercrombie & Fitch shoot scout working for world-famous photographer Bruce Weber. He returned home to Michigan to consider the offer, then headed to Lake George, New York for the shoot. It was the start of a modeling career, and his photos were published in the 1997 Abercrombie & Fitch Christmas Quarterly. In October 2001, after making guest appearances on several shows, Tom debuted in what would come to be his signature role: that of the teenaged Clark Kent/Superman in the series Smallville. He had originally turned down the role twice before accepting it, thinking it would be "lame". However, after auditioning hundreds of other potential candidates, the producers were so sure that Tom had just the fresh-faced look they were seeking. Tom currently resides in Los Angeles with his wife and their dogs. During the shooting of Smallville, he stays in hotels in Vancouver. He runs, skis, plays basketball, and visits with family and friends in his spare time.

Can you believe he turned down the role on Smallville TWICE? It seems impossible to imagine anyone else in the role.
We're proud to have some of his Clark Kent wardrobe in our collection. And we can't wait to see where his career will go next. Loving Brandon Routh, but this man IS Superman!posted 37 days ago -

Amazing actor and the hottest guy around. No one could do better as Clark Kent in Smallville. Hope to see more big films out of him though.
