Jensen Ackles’ ‘Smallville’ Reunion Plus His Other Fun Instagram Selfies
Supernatural star Jensen Ackles enjoyed a reunion with his former Smallville co-stars Tom Welling and Michael Rosenbaum last weekend as the trio of actors came together for Creation Entertainment’s Operation Las Vegas fan event.
Ackles played Jason Teague in the fourth season of Smallville, the long-running superhero series that starred Welling as Clark Kent/Superman and Rosenbaum as Lex Luthor. The close connection between the actors continues to this day, as Welling now stars in the Supernatural spinoff The Winchesters, portraying Sam (Jared Padalecki) & Dean’s (Ackles) grandfather, Samuel Campbell.
“Ran in to a couple of old friends in Vegas yesterday. Nearly 20yrs since we did #Smallville together…,” Ackles wrote on Instagram alongside a photo of himself with Welling and Rosenbaum.
“No way your time line is correct … or … ?” commented Welling, making a quip about how time has flown.
It wasn’t just Ackles feeling nostalgic, as Rosenbaum also took to his Instagram page to share a reunion photo of himself with Ackles and Welling, along with Padalecki, musician Jason Manns, and Supernatural star Rob Benedict.
“Smallville meets Supernatural. We are touring together now folks. come find us. Good to see my old friends,” wrote Rosenbaum.
