Tom Welling
From Smallville to the Fog, what the hell happened
_______
I ran. I ran until my muscles burned and my veins pumped battery acid. Then I ran some more.
He did this while still working on Smallville. When actors work on a TV show they only have a limited time to do a movie while on Hiatus between seasons. Most films take too long but horror movies are made much more quickly. So Tom decided to do this one during break one year (he also did Cheaper by the Dozen but since that wasn't a horror movie he was still filming while also working on Smallville. He was exhausted all the time, he said, and felt his perfomances suffered in both vehicles.).
Basically it was the only project he could do in the time allowed. And it was based on a horror classic so he probably thought it would be good?
