Career
Welling never planned to be a model. He was discovered at a party in Nantucket in 1998 by casting director Jennifer Starr, who was looking for fresh faces. That led to modeling work for brands such as Tommy Hilfiger, Abercrombie & Fitch and Calvin Klein. He has said he didn’t enjoy modeling and wasn’t good at it, so he moved toward acting.
His first recurring role came in the legal drama Judging Amy. He was signed for three episodes, and good feedback led producers to keep him for three more.
His career-defining role was Clark Kent in Smallville, which ran from 2001 to 2011. He has said he turned down the lead twice before reading the script and changing his mind. People magazine named him one of its “Breakthrough Stars of 2001.” He won Teen Choice Awards in 2002 (Choice Breakout TV Star) and 2009 (Choice TV Actor – Action/Adventure).
