Tom Welling Is Super Picky
Tom Welling was a huge star in the 2000s when he starred as young superman Clark Kent in the Smallville series. He stayed in the role for the most part of a decade, and after a pretty full-on filming schedule. Because of it, he chose to take a break from acting once the series was over.
But he might have pushed it a little too far. He’s known for being extremely picky about what movie roles he takes on, having only appeared in three films since Smallville ended in 2011. And they haven’t been a hit with audiences and film reviewers. Instead of launching him into fame and fortune as everyone expected, his long career as Superman hijacked a large part of his acting life and left him a little jaded.
