Kristin Kreuk Dishes on Emmanuelle Chriqui Playing Lana Lang In 'Superman & Lois' TV Series

Kristin Kreuk is adding her support to Emmanuelle Chriqui‘s casting as Lana Lang in the upcoming Superman & Lois television series.

Speaking to TVLine in a new interview, the 37-year-old actress brought the character, who was Clark Kent’s girlfriend, to life on The WB’s Smallville.

“I don’t know a ton about the show, but it sounds like it’s going to be a lot of fun,” Kristin shared. “She’s a great character, and with the freedom that’s afforded creators right now in regards to comic book characters I think they can adjust and adapt her into a more modern position in the world.”

“She’s wonderful, and very nice,” she added of Emmanuelle. “I imagine that Lana is a very different character in a different universe. I am excited to hear about how the show portrays her.”

Kristin continues, “She’s an interesting character in the canon, so having her be in a predominant role on this new show is awesome.”

Tyler Hoechlin and Elizabeth Tulloch will reprise their roles as the title characters, as the series centers on the couple as they “deal with all of the stress, pressures, and complexities that come with being working parents to two teenage sons in today’s society.”
