The CW's upcoming Superman & Lois series has added a new take on Clark Kent's hometown friend and first crush, Lana Lang. According to Deadline, Emmanuelle Chriqui (The Passage, Entourage) will play the role.

We've seen a few different live-action interpretations of Lang over the years, with Kristin Kreuk's Smallville take being the most prominent. This version of the character is described as "the loan officer at Smallville Bank who stayed in Smallville when others left for something bigger and brighter. Lana reestablishes her friendship with her old friend, Clark Kent, during one of the most difficult periods in her life."

We recently found out that Dylan Walsh (Nip/Tuck, Unforgettable) had also joined the cast as General Lane.

This new series will be a little different to previous Man of Steel-centric shows, as the story will focus on Clark (Tyler Hoechlin) and Lois (Elizabeth Tulloch) raising a family and dealing with the "stress, pressures and complexities that come with being working parents in today’s society." Former Flash showrunner Helbing will executive produce Superman & Lois with Greg Berlanti, Sarah Schechter and Geoff Johns via Berlanti Productions.

The show will go straight to series (13 episodes), and production is expected to get underway as soon as it's safe to do so.

Are you guys looking forward to this one? What do you make of Chriqui's casting? Let us know in the usual place.

Cute.

Also, it would be nice to...you know, GET A F*CKING REDHEAD ONCE IN A WHILE!!!

But other than that, she can get it.

I still can't believe this show is a thing when CW has so many other shows that already cover so much of this same material. But thus is the power of a logo, I guess.

@Spock0Clock
I can't believe they chose to go forward with THIS Superman when they had SuperRouth!
But i reckon it's for the best, knowing how they do their shit, it's probably best to use SuperRouth...sparingly...

@Spock0Clock - Well with Crisis, they could do new takes on a few villains

@Spock0Clock - Eh I like CW superman. His arc is dumb, but the actor does a good job.

Lana Lang in a Superman show WITH Clark and his family? Saucy, controversial.

@FleischerSupes - Wonder what Smallville cameos we ill get. im hoping to see

At this point, I don't expect Welling to show up again anytime soon.
Would rather see Rosenbaum on Flash

@dracula - Smallville had a great cast. Obviously Rosenbaum was a real standout too.

@FleischerSupes - true, but think he would make a great Owen Mercer, the speedster Captain Boomerang

Good casting. Show is shaping up well. But if I'm honest I'd prefer a Smallville animated continuation.

@Nightwing1015 - If they did a smallville continuation, it would probably be one of the direct to video movies

@dracula - Oh yeah, that'd be good too. To be honest I'd be fine with them just ignoring those season 11 comics. They weren't that good in my opinion.

I've lost count on how many redheaded characters were cast as non-readhead roles.
