BITSIE TULLOCH

Many amazing actresses have filled the practical pumps of comic book legend/ award-winning journalist Lois Lane. From Teri Hatcher to Amy Adams, there’s been a Lois for every taste since the ’40s. But for the latest Lois (of The CW’s universe), actress Elizabeth “Bitsie”

Tulloch admits she’s always looked to Margot Kidder, of Richard Donner’s Superman films, as her preferred Lane. Tulloch tells SFX that she’s had a lifetime of being told that she resembles Kidder, as well as loving Kidder’s sassy take on the reporter. “She was having so much fun with the role,” Tulloch enthuses. “There was a joyfulness about all of Margot Kidder’s choices as an actor.”

Invoking the spirit of that performance, Tulloch has now played Lane in two Arrowverse crossovers, and will co-star in a new series, Superman And Lois, with Tyler Hoechlin as Superman/Clark. She tells us about the highs and lows of series-surfing in the Crisis On Infinite Earths as Lane…

How tough was it playing Lois across several different Arrowverse series?
