Earlier today, it was announced that Elizabeth Tulloch will be playing the role of Lois Lane in this year’s Arrowverse crossover airing in December, opposite Tyler Hoechlin’s Superman.

On her Instagram page, Tulloch expressed her excitement and gratitude for getting the role, which will also allow her to work with her friend, The Flash’s Danielle Panabaker. In the post, she also talked about why Lois Lane is such a great role.

“When I started acting, one of my teachers asked me to watch the screen tests for the role of Lois Lane for 1978’s Superman. All of the actresses were terrific, but it was always clear to me why Margot Kidder won the role: she seemed lit from within, full of joie de vivre. Now, at a time when the noble profession of journalism feels under siege, it’s a privilege to join the club of actresses who have played the dogged reporter,” she wrote.

“As far back as 1938 when she first appeared in Action Comics #1, Lois Lane has defied and subverted society’s expectations of how women should behave. She was portrayed as opinionated, inquisitive, and an unapologetically badass career woman at a time when many representations of women leaned more towards meek and demure. One of the reasons the character has remained so compelling for the last 80 years is that she has all these formidable, strong-willed qualities, but she’s also vulnerable, romantic, and feminine. A truly modern woman,” she continued.

Look for Elizabeth Tulloch’s debut as Lois this December on The CW.

DC and Warner Bros. have wisely chosen to release the newest Superman movie sneak peek to the public online rather than letting us all suffer through low-res video captures from the showings before Minecraft. The film, which stars David Corenswet, Rachel Brosnahan, and Nicholas Hoult as Superman, Lois Lane, and Lex Luthor, respectively, comes out on July 11, 2025 and is directed by James Gunn (Guardians of the Galaxy).

The sneak peek gives us an extended look at Krypto bringing Superman to the Fortress where he is tended to by his robot friends (Kelex x 12?) We also get to see the Daily Planet, Lex, some Superman and Lois moments which are always nice, and more. Check it out below:

Smallville’s Annette O’Toole recently spoke with Salon magazine about her biggest regret from her time on the show. It’s a topic she has discussed on the TalkVille podcast, and it is something she talked about in KryptonSite’s interview to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the series premiere.

Basically, it was the notion that she never was able to share scenes with Christopher Reeve. While the plan originally was for a scene between them in the Season 4 premiere “Crusade,” in the two appearances that Reeve did make on Smallville failed to reunite O’Toole with Reeve, which is a shame, as Annette played Lana Lang to Christopher Reeve’s Clark Kent in the film Superman III.

“I never understood it,” she said. “I should have picked up the phone and called the producers and said what are you thinking? You’ve got the prior Lana Lang and Superman. Why aren’t you putting them in a scene together? It kind of broke my heart. It was kind of like ‘if they don’t see, I’m not gonna tell ’em! They don’t understand!’ So who’s regretting it? Not them. I knew it would be the last time I’d ever get to see Chris, so, yeah, I’m very sad about that.”
