Before superhero origin stories became standard and long before The CW’s interconnected “Arrowverse,” Tom Welling starred in Smallville, a show with a fresh concept: what if a series followed Clark Kent growing up in his hometown? The show’s creators, Alfred Gough and Miles Millar, established a unique “no tights, no flights” rule, prioritizing character development and relatable stories over flashy special effects, which made it stand out from other superhero shows.

Cheng Pei-pei was a groundbreaking figure in martial arts cinema, often considered the first female action star. She became famous for her role as a tough, skilled swordswoman in the highly impactful wuxia film, Come Drink With Me, where she embarked on a daring rescue mission.

Wes Bentley portrays Kayce Dutton in the series Yellowstone. He’s John Dutton’s son, and in the show’s fifth season finale, he makes the difficult decision to sell the Dutton Ranch – a property his family has owned and defended since 1883 – hoping to leave his violent past behind and build a peaceful life with his family. Despite this, a new spinoff series will see Kayce return to dangerous work as he becomes part of a team of US Marshals.
