I have thought of an actress to play Lois Lane - I think Adrienne Wilkinson would be a good one I liked her in Xena (where she played - Livia/Eve).

this is just my opinion. just because Lois Lane as depicted as being white in comic's and previous live version's of the character. doesn't mean this live version of the character has to be white. iT should not matter wether actress is white, African American, Asian American, Japanese American, or native American.

It should go to who ever is right choice for the role.

this would be my choice's

1. Kate sachoff-Battle star Galactic
2. Zoe Suldana Guardian of Galaxy
3. Adrianne Palick The Orville
4. Joanne Kelly ware house 13
5. Genelle Williams ware house 13

Kind of torn on this one. I like Tyler and wouldn't mind seeing Superman and Lois guest star a couple of times on Supergirl but, I'm not sure how well his appearance in the crossover will take off. It already seems like they have to really nerf Kara during the crossovers in order for her to not just overpower the villains right away or completely outshine the other superheroes. I can't imagine what kind of story they will have to set up with both Supergirl and Superman in it, in which one or both aren't relegated to being unconscious or incapacitated for most of the story in some way.

The worry that he will steal the focus should be an outdated one. It had been established he is a supporting character, but a very welcome one.

While this should be the case, it won't be while there are still constant complaints asking why he doesn't show up whenever there is any big threat, or when Supergirl gets injured, or when she leaves the Earth or when someone from his past arrives, etc., etc.

@Maryscountry - I agree that the actress needs to be in her early 30s (Tyler is only 30 but there isn't any rule that says she can't be a bit older) to go with the story told so far. But, I really don't have any ideas on who that should be

My vote for Lois Lane would be Sarah Shahi. She was awesome in person of interest. She is good at playing strong women. I think she also looks like she could be related to Jenna Dewan so I think she could pass as Lucy Lane's sister.

Quoting Zendar:

If they want to retain any hint of continuity with season 1, Lois should be played by someone over 40 who looks like she could be Jenna Dewan's older sister. This being The CW, they'll undoubtedly get someone too young.

Jenna looked like she was in her late 20s, just like the character she was playing, so as long as they find an actress who looks like she could be in her mid-30s, regardless of her actual age, they should be fine.
