History

In recent years, a younger Lois Lane has become a recurring character on the live-action WB series, Smallville, starting in the fourth season. Erica Durance plays the part of the irascible Lois and enjoys nothing more than needling teenage Clark Kent into fits of nervousness. This version of Lois is a great departure from previous incarnations as initially she has no desire at all to pursue a field in journalism. Further, she is also the only version of Lois Lane who has not invariably fallen in love with Smallville's favorite son - Clark Kent. Ironically however, she did enjoy brief romances with a blonde-haired swimmer named Arthur Curry, and with the CEO of Queen Industries, Oliver Queen (Green Arrow).

In fact, Lois and Clark have an almost sibling like style of rivalry, but the show makes many tongue-in-cheek allusions to their eventual romance. She is also the cousin of the character Chloe Sullivan. Since the 5th and 6th Season, Lois started to write for The Metropolis Inquisitor, lately, the newest Editor In Chief of the Daily Planet, Grant Gabriel, offered Lois Lane a job, and she took it.

Chloe Sullivan left the bullpen, and Clark Kent took her desk encouraged by Lois. Now, they both are working side by side at the Daily Planet, and exploring new feelings in their relationship.
