Now, 20 years after the fact, it seems as if Ackles has realized that life for Alba, who was being plastered across every lad mag known to man-including an unauthorized Playboy cover (an with the image taken from a movie still)-probably wasn’t all billion-dollar IPOs and biodegradable baby wipes at the time. It wasn’t until Ackles decided to “fight fire with fire” that the two eventually developed what the actor described as a “mutual respect” for each other. “She just was like, ‘Oh, here’s the pretty boy that network brought in for some more window dressing because that’s what we all need.’” “It wasn’t that she didn’t like me,” he said. Describing their tension as the kind of “bickering” that often happens between siblings, Ackles seems to have adopted a whole new perspective on the situation with time. “I was the new kid on the block, and I was picked on by the lead,” Ackles said of his experience working on the series. But behind the scenes, says her Dark Angel co-star Jensen Ackles, Alba was “horrible.”Īckles-who has gone on to have a major small-screen career with meaty roles in Dawson’s Creek, Smallville, Supernatural, and The Boys-recently shared all the gory details of the challenges he and Alba faced back in the day while chatting with Michael Rosenbaum for “Inside of You with Michael Rosenbaum.” As Page Six reports, Ackles and Alba didn’t always have the best working relationship. While the series was short-lived, lasting just two seasons, it was enough exposure to help Alba’s acting career skyrocket. But back in the early aughts she was better known as the breakout star of Dark Angel, a post-apocalyptic TV series co-created by James Cameron. Today, Jessica Alba is probably best known as the wildly successful founder of The Honest Company, an eco-minded consumer goods company that she founded in 2011 and took public in 2021 with a $1.4 billion valuation.
