The teenage Superman is now 40 years old! Tom Welling is best known for his role as Clark Kent, but nowadays he’s been more involved behind the camera as an executive producer and a director. But let me tell you, he still looks like a superhero! (Photo: Instagram)
Lana Lang, the ultimate girl next door, was played by the beautiful Kristin Kreuk, who’s now 34. But look at this picture! Does she even age? From 2012 to 2016, Kristin was Catherine Chandler in the series Beauty & the Beast. (Photo: Instagram)
We’re sorry to break the illusion, but today, Michael Rosenbaum (a.k.a. Lex Luthor) has a head full of hair! The actor who’s now 45, has been focusing in comedy (what?!) and played the lead role in the series Impastor. (Photo: Instagram)

In case you didn’t know, Anette O’Toole (Clark’s adoptive mom) was Lana Lang in the 1983 movie Superman III. Today, Annette, 65, is best known for her role as Martha Kent. She has since made some special appearance in series like Grey’s Anatomy. (Photo: Instagram)

Erica Durance, now 39, continues acting. She recently stared in the supernatural medical drama Saving Hope in the role of Dr. Alex Reid. (Photo: Instagram)
Somebody teeeeeeeeeell me what the Smallville cast is up to today!
This week marked 16 years since the beginning of our favorite superhero series, Smallville (sorry, Flash!). The 00’s show followed Clark Kent’s journey from being and ordinary high schooler and impromtu hero to Daily Planet journalist and full-time superhero.
Whether it was because of Clark’s personality, the love drama, or the never-ending teen dilemmas (mixed with some out of this world—pun intended—predicaments), Smallville presented a unique version of the iconic DC Comics character that we could all relate to in our younger years.
But we’ve all grown up since those days when we rushed from school to see Clark in a new adventure, including the Smallville original cast! How do the look now? Whath have they been to since Somebody Save me stopped playing on our TVs?
