Agreed
totally on Erica Durance, Andy.
That said,
my favorite Lois is probably Dana Delaney's sassy, gorgeous 'toon version of the
Superman animated series from the 90's.
As for the current crop of contenders, I'd pick Rachel McAdams by a mile. Cute, intelligent, charming, just old enough to convince as a seasoned journalist (unlike teen mom Kate Bosworth
) yet young enough to get a few sequels out of the role if the film is successful enough. Stewart is both too young (
wa-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-y too frickin' young...did Lois join the Daily Planet staff at age twelve?
) and too mopey/catatonic. Biel is gorgeous, but I doubt she could pull off "brainy", and Lois should be attractive, but not distractingly so. Akerman? I've only seen her in
Watchmen, and she left little impression on me (even in the looks department). And I wouldn't watch
Glee if my life depended on it.
Go with McAdams.
