Amy Adams as Jodi Melville from Smallville Episode Craving and Tom Welling as Clark Kent in Smallville
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT I'm currently watching Smallville for the first time, and season 1, episode 7, "Craving," featuring Amy Adams as a guest star, nearly made me want to stop watching. The episode's main storyline follows Adams' Jodi Melville, an overweight and bullied classmate of Tom Welling's Clark Kent who starts a new diet using only vegetables grown from her father's greenhouse.
Related 10 Superhero Movie Actors You Totally Forgot Were On Smallville Smallville's initial villain-of-the-week structure meant the show had many guest stars with bit parts, some of whom went on to bigger superhero roles. It's impossible to fit the entirety of the teen girl experience into a single episode, and Smallville's attempts to do so come off clumsily, resulting in an episode that's cringey and unnecessary. Jodi's storyline in "Craving" doesn't progress Clark's Superman origin story, so it feels extraneous in the scope of the larger show, which only makes its attempts at tackling such sensitive topics feel needless.
It's also become far less common for thin actors to wear fat suits or other prosthetics in order to play heavier characters that undergo a transformation.
