An original plan for Lois Lane on Smallville was what fans had been theorizing for the first three seasons.Starring Tom Welling as a young Clark Kent, Smallville served as an origin story, delving into the life of the budding superhero in the years before he’d actually suit up as Superman. The first three seasons did not include Lois Lane, and at the time, there was a popular fan theory that Allison Mack’s Chloe was being set up to become the character, perhaps by having her name legally changed to Lois Lane. Of course, that theory was dashed when Erica Durance debuted as Lois in Smallville’s fourth season, but as creators Miles Millar and Al Gough confirm on the TalkVille podcast, the fans still weren’t far off with their original prediction.”We did talk about that, that maybe [Chloe] is the proto-Lois and that later on she had to change her identity or something like that, and she becomes Lois Lane,” Millar said. Gough added, “The issue, again, was we wanted to get Lois Lane, and they wouldn’t give her to us. And then when she came in in Season 4, there was this huge thing about, ‘you can have her for two episodes,’ and then, ‘you can have her for three,’ and then, ‘you can have her for half the season,’ and [then-Warner Bros. Television president] Peter Roth, to his credit, was like, ‘f–k it. She’s in the show now, and she’s just not leaving.’”Nicholas Hoult’s Lex Luther Casting Praised by Supergirl’s Jon Cryer
