My Take

Aaron Ashmore is an actor I keep encountering across cult genre television, and I always enjoy seeing him show up. Born in 1979 in Richmond, British Columbia, he played Jimmy Olsen on Smallville, Steve Jinks on Warehouse 13, and Johnny Jaqobis on Killjoys, the last earning him a Canadian Screen Award nomination. What I appreciate is his knack for grounded, likable supporting characters who give sci-fi worlds emotional weight. The fact that he's an identical twin, with brother Shawn also acting, adds a fun wrinkle. He's never been a flashy A-lister, but in the genre space he's a reliably warm, watchable presence.
