Smallville actress discusses Lois Lane's motherhood after Crisis on Infinite Earths twist

After the reveal in DC's Crisis on Infinite Earths that Clark Kent and Lois Lane are parents, Erica Durance reflected on this twist. In a recent interview, she addressed her time on the show and what Lois would be like as a mother. Durance described Lois as fierce and protective, likely to demand resilience from her children, while also providing humor. Though fans never saw Lois and Clark as parents during Smallville, Durance's insights suggest an interesting dynamic and strong character exploration for future stories.
