Live-action films
1940s Superman serials

The film was a popular success and launched Neill's career as an actress. A sequel, Atom Man vs. Superman, also starring Neill and Alyn was released in 1950.
Neill previously had a recurring role in producer Sam Katzman's "The Teen Agers" musical comedy series, playing a reporter for a high school newspaper. When Katzman was making the Superman serial, he remembered Neill's newshawk portrayals and cast her to play Lois.
Superman and the Mole Men
Released by Lippert Pictures, Superman and the Mole Men (1951) is the first theatrical feature film based on any DC Comics character. The film served as a trial balloon release for the syndicated TV series Adventures of Superman, and later became the two-part episode "The Unknown People".

Christopher Reeve Superman films
Canadian-born actress Margot Kidder played Lois Lane opposite Christopher Reeve in Superman (1978), Superman II (1980), Superman III (1983), and Superman IV: The Quest for Peace (1987).
The filmmakers had a very specific concept for Lois: liberated, hard-nosed, witty and attractive. Kidder was cast because director Richard Donner and the producers agreed that her performance had a certain spark and vitality, and because of her strong interaction with Christopher Reeve. Donner feels Kidder seemed to convey the general American concept of Lois Lane—pretty, pert and perky, intelligent and ambitious without being pushy. Actresses who auditioned for the role include Anne Archer, Deborah Raffin, Susan Blakely, Stockard Channing, and Lesley Ann Warren.
Kidder later guest starred on the fourth season of the television series Smallville as Bridgette Crosby in the episodes "Crusade" and "Transference".

DC Extended Universe
Amy Adams portrays Lois Lane in the 2013 Superman reboot film Man of Steel with Henry Cavill as Clark Kent/Superman, directed by Zack Snyder and produced by Christopher Nolan.
In casting Lois, Snyder said: "Amy has the talent to capture all of the qualities we love about Lois: smart, tough, funny, warm, ambitious and, of course, beautiful." Snyder said they cast Adams because she is "supermodern." Producer Deborah Snyder says, "Lois is independent and definitely not a damsel in distress. And she's never afraid to get her hands dirty." Adams said: "Lois is just very natural, nothing about her is contrived or manufactured." Adams on her character as following the idea of the independent, feisty woman, but set in a more identifiable world, "Snyder's film has a modern take on journalism: a world of blogs, instant news, online paranoia. She has become more of a free-ranging journalist, someone who likes to be hands-on. The nature of the newspaper business has changed so much. There is so much more pressure." This was the third time Adams auditioned for the role of Lois Lane. She previously auditioned for the role in Superman Returns and the aborted Superman: Flyby.
In the screenplay, Lois's background as a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist is filled out with a mention of her stint as an embedded reporter with the First Infantry Division of the U.S. Army. In the film, Lois suggested Clark call himself "Superman" after she noticed the symbol on his chest resembled an English "S." Clark explains that the symbol is the El family crest and on his home planet, it means hope. Screenwriter David S. Goyer has revealed a deleted scene from the film, where after Lois is captured by the FBI, they interrogate her and she refuses to reveal Superman's identity.
In the film, Lois arrives in the Arctic to research a story about an alien occurrence in the Arctic. She follows a mysterious man into an ice tunnel (a disguised Clark Kent tracking a buried Kryptonian scout ship). After being attacked by a security droid protecting the ship, Lois is made aware of Clark's abilities when he saves her life. As a result of those events, Lois begins writing an expose piece for the Daily Planet on her mysterious savior. She tracks down Clark's identity to Smallville and interviews his mother. After learning the circumstances surrounding his adopted father's death and Clark's desire to remain hidden from society, Lois ceases writing the piece.
Superman (2025)
Rachel Brosnahan portrayed Lois Lane in the film Superman (2025), opposite David Corenswet as Superman/Clark Kent. Lois is a journalist working for the Daily Planet and a colleague and love interest of Clark Kent. Brosnahan described Lois in an interview as "fiercely intelligent" and “feisty”.
After Superman's battle with the Hammer of Boravia, Lois interviews Superman about his actions on stopping the conflict between Boravia and Jarhanpur without the authority of the United States government. Clark defends his actions as life-saving. He cuts the interview short, and as Lois laments that their relationship is doomed, Clark walks out from their apartment. After Lex Luthor infiltrates the Fortress of Solitude and recovers half of a damaged message from Superman's parents, revealing that Superman was intended to conquer humanity, Lois witnesses it on the Daily Planet office. Later that night, Superman apologizes for his argument with Lois and the two embrace.
Willing to save Clark and clear his name, Lois asks Guy Gardner, Hawkgirl, and Mister Terrific, to help him free Superman, but they refuse to avoid a conflict with the U.S. government. Mister Terrific decides to help Lois regardless and they fly to Fort Kramer, where Superman was last seen. After arriving at the camp, they discover that Luthor has built a pocket universe. After Superman and Krypto are rescued by Metamorpho, Lois, Clark, and Krypto escape in Mister Terrific's T-Craft and fly to Smallville for Clark to recover.
After discovering the alliance between Luthor and Boravian president Vasil Ghurkos, Lois and the Daily Planet crew expose Luthor's scheme.

Live-action television
Adventures of Superman
Following the film Superman and the Mole Men, which served as a pilot for television series Adventures of Superman (1952–1958), the series went into production in late 1951. Phyllis Coates played Lois Lane in the first season opposite George Reeves as Clark Kent / Superman. Coates portrayed Lois as a sharp, strong-willed, efficient, and resourceful reporter who tries to outscoop Clark Kent. The production stopped after Season 1.
The series resumed filming when the cereal company Kellogg's agreed to sponsor the show. However, Coates had committed to other projects and did not return as Lois. Noel Neill, who had previously played the character in Columbia Pictures' Superman film serial, stepped into the role from Season 2 to Season 6 until the series' cancellation in 1958.
Neill cameoed as Ella Lane, the mother of Lois, in the 1978 film Superman, also appearing in the 1980s Superboy series and the 2006 film Superman Returns. Coates similarly played Ella Lane in Season 1 of the 1990s television series Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman.
Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman
Teri Hatcher portrayed Lois Lane in the television series Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman (1993–1997) with Dean Cain as Superman/Clark Kent. In the series, Lois is described as "complicated, domineering, uncompromising, stubborn and brilliant."
The series mirrored Superman's modern origin, established by writer John Byrne, where Clark Kent is the true personality, and Superman is the disguise. This is the first television series or films which shows Lois and Clark's romance fully realized, with the two leading characters getting married during the series run.
Hatcher made a guest appearance on the television series Smallville playing Lois's mother Ella in a videotape that she recorded for her daughter before her death. She played Rhea, the queen of Daxam and the mother of Mon-El, in the series Supergirl.
Smallville
Erica Durance portrayed Lois Lane in the television series Smallville. The character is described as sophisticated, street smart, having worldly experience, and a very capable woman. Fiercely independent and a military brat.
On casting Lois for the series, "we wanted to make sure we did it right. [Margot Kidder] was the gold standard, so we wanted to find somebody who had that combination of being very pretty, but also very smart, and with a wit," Alfred Gough said. Producer Kelly Souders said Durance was cast in the role because "she had attitude but at the same time was totally lovable." Souders noted that Lois was one of the most difficult characters to play "because she's super-opinionated, extremely bright and a little abrupt, and at the same time she has to be likable."
Series creators Alfred Gough and Miles Millar state that it was always their intention to bring Lois Lane into the series and were finally able to get the character in season 4, with restrictions that only allowed her character to appear on the show for a few episodes, which expand to half a season. Warner Bros. Television Studios chairman Peter Roth lifted the restrictions, allowing her character to become a permanent cast member in the series. Due to the then-upcoming film Superman Return, Warner Bros. also forbid any romantic interaction between Clark and Lois.
Lois first appeared in season four as the cousin of Chloe Sullivan. The series explored her progression from rebellious teenager to resolute investigative reporter. She began as an annoyance to Clark Kent during season four, but slowly their relationship evolved with Lois demonstrating an insight into Clark even in his more private moments. Eventually, she became his love interest in season eight and his fiancée in the final tenth season. Clark and Lois had a wedding in the series finale, but the ceremony was interrupted by the coming of Darkseid and Apokolips. The series ends with Clark finally becoming Superman, and a flash forward seven years into the future, where Clark and Lois are still working at the Daily Planet and still trying to find the right time to get married.
The television series was adapted and continued in the comic book series Smallville: Season 11. The comic series continues approximately six months after Clark Kent puts on the costume and debuts as Superman to the world. The series continues to follow the lives and adventures of Clark and Lois as a couple and many other Smallville characters, as they face new challenges and villains.

Lois Lane appears in the Arrowverse, portrayed by Elizabeth Tulloch. The executive producers described the character as "dogged, determined and brave reporter, a strong partner to Superman and an amazing addition to the Arrowverse of DC characters."

After reality is restored and returning to Earth-38, Clark and Lois reveal to Kara that they are expecting a baby and will be returning to Argo City for an extended period. Later, at the Fortress of Solitude, Clark proposes to Lois with a diamond ring made from coal. She happily accepts and kisses him.
In the 2019 crossover "Crisis on Infinite Earths", Lois and Clark are married and are living on Argo City with their infant son Jonathan. They and their son are forced to evacuate Argo City before it is consumed by the Anti-Monitor's anti-matter wave.
