Previously only mentioned by name and appearing in voice only via phone call, The CW’sArrowverseis about to add Lois Lane to the network’s DC shows, proper. The iconic character, who has had as many and varied performers take on the role as her famous superhero paramour Superman/Clark Kent has, will join The CW’s cross-over special, a three-night event that encompasses three show’s worth of cast, characters, and plot. And where there’s Lois Lane, you know Superman himself can’t be far behind.
AsTHRreports,GrimmalumnaElizabeth “Bitsie” Tullochwill take on the iconic role oppositeTyler Hoechlin, who returns to reprise his part as the Big Blue Boy Scout this December. They’ll star alongside the usual lead casts ofArrow,The FlashandSupergirl, though the crossover will also introduce Batwoman, played by Arrowverse newcomerRuby Rose. See how the massive cast of characters comes together when the special starts Sunday, December 9th withThe Flashat 8 p.m. ET/PT, followed by Arrow on Monday, December 10th at 8 p.m. and concluding on Tuesday, December 11th at 8 p.m. ET/PT withSupergirl.
Here’s whatSupergirlexecutive producersJessica QuellerandRobert Rovnersaid previously about the search for who would play the role of Lois Lane:
“We couldn’t be more excited to introduce Lois Lane to the Arrowverse. This dogged, determined and brave reporter will make for a strong partner to Superman and amazing addition to our universe of DC characters.”
Tulloch certainly fits the bill, as fans ofGrimmand her character Juliette (and others) know full well. But just what sort of emotional rollercoaster do the Arrowverse scribes have in store for us? Time will tell!
