Earlier, we reported the original Lois Lane, Noel Neill, has passed away. Now, the cast of Smallville have paid tribute to the actress on social media.
Neill played Lane opposite George Reeves in the syndicated TV show Adventures of Superman. The WB/CW series Smallville followed the early years of Superman (Tom Welling). The show ran from 2001 to 2011.
Smallville‘s own Lois Lane, Erica Durance, told TVLine: “She was a gracious, funny, spunky and strong woman. I was lucky to have met her.”
Take a look at messages from Durance and other Smallville castmembers Michael Rosenbaum and Allison Mack:
