This one hurts....
There have been many Lois Lanes in many successful adaptations, but it can be said that the one who was and still is THE Lois to many people around the world was Margot Kidder. Just like Reeve was and still is THE Superman to many people. Kidder as Lois was iconic and paved the way for Teri Hatcher, Dana Delany, Erica Durance, and others (just like Phyllis Coates, Noel Neill, Joan Alexander, Patricia Marand, and the radio actresses came before her).
