Superman & Lois
A new Instagram post from Bitsie Tulloch confirms filming has officially wrapped on the final season of Superman & Lois.
How lucky am I, to have been able to inhabit this woman’s bones, and brain, and heart, for the last 6 years, 4 of which were on #supermanandlois.
Lois Lane has been an icon for as long as Superman has because of her fierceness, her work ethic, her determination, her playfulness, her commitment to finding the truth no matter the cost.
