We recently learned that the fourth and final season of Superman and Lois had officially wrapped filming, and star Elizabeth Tulloch has now taken to social media to bid a fond farewell to her take on Lois Lane.

"How lucky am I, to have been able to inhabit this woman’s bones, and brain, and heart, for the last 6 years, 4 of which were on #supermanandlois. Lois Lane has been an icon for as long as Superman has because of her fierceness, her work ethic, her determination, her playfulness, her commitment to finding the truth no matter the cost."

The actress went on to thank the show's cast and crew, and wish the best of luck to James Gunn as he prepares to bring the Man of Steel back to the big screen in the currently shooting DCU reboot.

"I wish the best of luck to @jamesgunn and the rest of his cast and crew, and especially to @rachelbrosnahan - I’m sure you will be a wonderful Lois and I can’t wait to see what you do with the role. Have so much fun - I know I did."

Brosnahan then responded: “Congratulations to the entire team! And thank you for this lovely torch pass."

Because the internet is dark and full of weirdos, some have criticized the Marvellous Mrs. Maisel star for not mentioning Amy Adams, who was the last actress to play Lois on the big screen (even though she was clearly responding to Tulloch's tag).

We've yet to see Brosnahan in-character as Lois Lane, either in an official still or a set photo, but Gunn did recently share a behind-the-scenes shot of the actress alongside co-star David Corenswet to mark Superman Day.

Superman Legacy will also star Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor, Isabela Merced as Hawkgirl, Edi Gathegi as Mister Terrific, Nathan Fillion as Green Lantern Guy Gardner, and Anthony Carrigan as Metamorpho.

More recently, Sara Sampaio signed on to play Lex's assistant/lover Eve Teschmacher, and Skyler Gisondo has been cast as Jimmy Olsen. Milly Alcock's Supergirl is also rumored to make her debut ahead of her own Woman of Tomorrow movie, but that's yet to be confirmed.

We're still not sure exactly how these other superheroes will factor into the story, but Gunn has previously revealed that Superman's dual-life as both Clark Kent and the Man of Steel will be explored in the film, suggesting that these characters will be his "super friends." Whether they'll be part of an actual team or not remains to be seen.

“Overjoyed to be announcing the start of principal photography on SUPERMAN today, February 29, which just so happens to be – coincidentally and unplanned – Superman’s birthday,” Gunn captioned the first official photo earlier this year. “When I finished the first draft of the script, I called the film ‘Superman: Legacy.’ By the time I locked the final draft, it was clear the title was SUPERMAN,” he added. “Making our way to you July 2025.”

Filming had been taking place in Svalbard, Norway, but is believed to have moved to Atlanta, Georgia. Superman is set to fly into theaters on July 11, 2025.

For the better part of a decade, DC has mishandled this brand. I am not expecting anything different.

@Forthas -

DC has been mishandling Superman since the days of Smallville.

They've rarely if ever had a clue what to do when it comes to adapting their properties.

@TrentCrimm - I thought they knocked it out of the park with Man of Steel.

Mr. Positive.

Is it better to screw up first then course-correct and make a great Universe? Or start off with a bang, like Marvel, but eventually can't keep it up at a high level?

Those who learn from their own mistakes are wise.
Those who learn from others mistakes are infinite genius.

@lazlodaytona - What about those who don't learn from their mistakes and double downs on them like Warner Brothers DC.

@Forthas -

Agreed, I really enjoyed Man of Steel, it could/should have been an amazing staying point for a DCU and it's still easily one of my favorite stand alone superhero movies, DC or Marvel.

@Forthas - they're idiots.
Why do u think DC is making it better now because they went to a proven commodity?
Forthas
Forthas - 4/30/2024, 10:46 AM
@lazlodaytona - No...the proven commodity is Legendary Films which when they partnered with WB produced the Dark Knight Trilogy and Man of Steel. The moment they deviated from that set up with BvS everything went to shit!

James Gunn is only successful because he was with Marvel. Look at The Suicide Squad which fell flat on its face. The same thing that will happen to Superman Legacy or whatever it is called.

Such love and respect, amazing.

She gave some great performances on the show in terms of acting.

The thing about Superman & Lois that i -as a longtime Superman fan- loved the most is how they explored new things with the characters and took em to new directions WHILE absolutely making it feel authentic to Lois & Clark.

Them being parents is something "new" even in comics, having 2 boys is also unusual and offered some interesting dynamics.

Or the Multiversal shit, their version of Bizarro or Doomsday or Kal-El having a brother, Lois with cancer, an "innocent" Luthor etc etc...

Curious to see what they come up with the final season!

lazlodaytona - 4/30/2024, 8:56 AM
@Doomsday8888 - man, I agree 💯
I was just thinking while rewatching how different but same Lois was as a parent. And Clark is not some goodie-two-shoes with his sons but is firm with them which through that he show his love for them. There's a little goofy Clark in there too but it doesn't dominate that side of the character. .
Doomsday8888
Doomsday8888 - 4/30/2024, 8:59 AM
@lazlodaytona
Yeah exactly, they have layers, which makes em feel real, you know?

There are moments where parents have to be strict with their children and then there are times where you just shower em with love, that's just good parenting and life in general. :)

That’s very cool…

I hope both her and Tyler atleast are invited to the premeire when that happens.

Tulloch has been great as Lois and maybe the most fleshed out version as we have seen her deal with her fraught family relationships with her father & sister , deal with being a mother & wife alongside a kick ass reporter and sadly cancer aswell

This series really cemented her as one of my favorites and it’s gonna be sad to see it and her go so soon!!.

Thank you Miss Tulloch aswell as the rest of the cast & crew for giving us this solid show that feels like a genuine love letter to Superman and his world.

She did such a commendable job as a Lois still the driven and determined reporter while being a supportive and loving mother and wife to her family. S3, IMO, was one of the best storylines for Lois. Loved her portrayal.
lazlodaytona
lazlodaytona - 4/30/2024, 8:59 AM
@TheLight - agree completely with you. It's a shame this show won't last 9 seasons instead of how flash did.
Ending The Flash after 4 seasons would have been wise.

Unreal how mediocre Gunn's cast looks. Not even CW worthy.
lazlodaytona
lazlodaytona - 4/30/2024, 9:00 AM
@PartyKiller - huh? Having frogs play the characters would be a step up from the CW DC actors..... excluding Superman and Lois. That show just nails it with everything.

Very happy that this awful CW show and its awful version of Superman is coming to an end. It has gotten all of the same things wrong about Superman than Snyder did, except it also just made him a cloying man-child doofy dad married with kids like the Incredibles.

Gunn will get it right and restore the secret identity.

@HermanM -

Most people on this site like Superman & Lois. I think it is/was pretty limp. It was on the gooey CW right where it belonged.

HermanM
HermanM - 4/30/2024, 9:21 AM
@DocSpock - exactly, I agree. Most people don't understand Superman and are uncritical consumers. Portraying Superman as a guy who is a cloying, saccharine, naive man-child who only does good because he doesn't know any better/is immature who is a simp whose world revolves around Lois, while also being a doofy sitcom dad, along with the "The S isn't an S, it means Hoper-man" nonsense instrad of being an S that Clark created for the costumed identity he created, doing away with the secret identity, is all some of the worst Superman takes I have ever seen.

These people will pretend that the George Reeves version was poorly acted, but I've been revisting it, and George Reeves (yes, George, not Christopher) did a fantastic job at playing a very accurate Superman and Clark Kent. His Clark was mild mannered, not a caricature. And his Superman did the right thing not out of naivite, but out of maturity, because he was a man who knew better, and was not simply sheltered/never exposed to any evil. That's what the comic book character is like. Contrast that with Hoechlin's over emotional man-childness and dependence on Lois Lane, the CW is a joke.

@HermanM -

Very good thoughts. I agree heartily with most of it. From 1961 on, I was watching those 50s Superman reruns every day.

I also thought Chris was excellent in the role. Superman 1 & 2 are what got the superhero movie ball rolling., I took my Dad to see them. He was a massive fan.

Hochlin was okay though he was pretty stiff. No one could make that soapy mush TV show look good.

Fingers crossed Corenswet can handle the role. I don't know anything about him.

HermanM
HermanM - 4/30/2024, 3:24 PM
@DocSpock - Reeve was fantastic, I like the first Donner film a lot, and I agree. I've never bought Hoechlin as Superman, Cavill could have been better with better scripts but is ultimately the Timothy Dalton of Superman castings, with Routh as Lazenby.

I think Corenswet and Gunn will do great. I haven't been this optimistic for a superhero film in a while.

@NinnesMBC - I'm fine with it as a future or what if or alternate reality tale. But Lois should never know Clark is Superman as tye status quo.
