Tom Welling has joined the cast of THE WINCHESTERS, it was announced at New York Comic Con. He’ll play the role of Samuel Campbell, Mary’s (Meg Donnelly) father and the patriarch of the Campbell Hunting family.

“When we were discussing casting the iconic character of Samuel Campbell, everyone felt it had to be someone who could step into the role and provide instant gravitas and history,” said showrunner Robbie Thompson in a statement. “Jensen and Danneel [Ackles] brought up the idea of Tom Welling and the second his name was mentioned we all knew he was the perfect person for the part. Tom is a fantastic actor and wonderful human, and we are so excited to be welcoming him to THE WINCHESTERS and the Supernatural Family.”

According to The CW, “Samuel taught Mary everything he knows. Gruff and pragmatic, he’s a veteran Hunter who prefers actions over words—and it’s always his way or the highway. But when Samuel teams up with Mary and her friends to save the world, he won’t only have to defeat the most dangerous monster he’s ever faced—he’ll also have to mend his broken relationship with his daughter.” (SUPERNATURAL fans previously saw Mitch Pileggi play the character.) Welling will make his first appearance as in episode 7, and will recur.

Welling is best known for playing Clark Kent on SMALLVILLE. In recent years, he’s also starred on LUCIFER, PROFESSIONALS, and appearing in the big ARROWverse crossover.
