Erik Valdez Cast as Lana Lang's Husband in The CW's SUPERMAN & LOIS Series
We recently learned that Emmanuelle Chriqui (The Passage, Entourage) would be taking on the role of Lana Lang in The CW’s upcoming DC spinoff series Superman & Lois. We’ve now learned that Erik Valdez (Graceland) will be playing Lana’s husband, Kyle Cushing.
Superman & Lois will focus on the two title characters played by Tyler Hoechlin and Elizabeth Tulloch “as they deal with all the stress, pressures and complexities that come with being working parents in today’s society.” Lois is still working at The Daily Planet when Superman & Lois begins, but Clark has been laid off.
Lana Lang-Cushing is a loan officer working at a Smallville Bank. She stayed in the small town “when others left for something bigger and brighter. Lana reestablishes her friendship with her old friend, Clark Kent, during one of the most difficult periods in her life.”
According to a previous report, Lana also has two daughters and she is having a troubled relationship with her husband.
The series is being produced by The Flash executive producer Todd Helbing, who is also writing the series. The series received a 13-episode order and will go straight into production when film and TV production are back up and running.
