February 25, 2002: Boston Globe Interviews Sam Jones III
In an article titled "Up, up, and away", the Boston Globe interviewed Sam Jones III who plays Pete Ross in "Smallville". Here's an excerpt from the interview...Sam Jones III's flight from Roxbury to 'Smallville' lands him in the big time by Matthew Gilbert, Globe Staff.
During their years toiling in Hollywood's celebrity-profile factory, most actors perfect the art of the cautious blab.
The consummate cautious blabber knows how to gush endlessly about his magnificent TV series and the magical wonders of his magnanimous network - and then withdraw into imperious stares when the questioning gets too real. Slick and evasive, he knows how to steer clear of the personal sphere.
Sam Jones III is a newcomer to the realm of the cautious blab, and as such he is a refreshing two hours of talk. Later in his promising career, the Boston native will learn to skirt subjects with the best of them; he will earn his MFA in MYOB. But right now, the young costar of the WB's Tuesday night Superman drama, "Smallville," is a reckless fountain of confidence, pride, and naivete. During a recent visit home from the Vancouver "Smallville" set, Jones arrives for lunch in the South End undaunted by an East Coast head cold, still high on his odyssey in La-La Land and the fans who actually want his autograph.
"Even grown women come up and ask to take my picture and tell me how cute I am," he says, talking a mile a minute while his chicken sandwich patiently awaits his attention. "I just keep my mouth shut, but when they leave, I'm like, this is funny. ... I say to my dad, 'Why are those people staring at me?' And he says, 'Because what you're doing is not normal. When you do something out of the average, people put you on a pedestal.' It's weird how one man can put another man on a pedestal, but that's what happens in life."
