The actress, 41, is best known for playing Lana Lang on the hit CW series, which ran for 10 seasons between 2001 and 2011.
“It’s never like that again on any particular show. And I admit, I’m glad this part is over and the daily work begins.
“But I’m trying to live this beginning in a slightly different way.”
Kristin is also known for playing Catherine Chandler in Beauty and the Beast, as well as Joanna Hanley in Burden of Truth two years later.
The star has also had an important film career, his most recent feature being Space Milkshake.
In 2021, Kristin talked about Emmanuelle Chirqui taking on the iconic role on Smallville.
Chirqui was cast as Lang on The CW’s Superman & Lois, alongside Tyler Hochlin as Superman/Clark Kent and Elizabeth Tulloch as intrepid reporter Lois Lane.
Kruek played Lang, Clark Kent’s young love interest while growing up on Smallville, and the actress opened up to TV Line about Chirqui taking on the role.
Chirqui will play Lana Lang-Cushing, who is married to a fire department chief named Kyle Cushing (Erik Valdez), while Lang-Cushing works as a loan officer at Smallville Bank.

In 2021, Kristin talked about Emmanuelle Chirqui taking on the iconic role on Smallville.
Chirqui’s Lang-Cushing is said to have stayed in Smallville while others left in search of “bigger, brighter things.”
He is also said to have reestablished his friendship with his childhood friend Clark Kent, “during one of the most difficult periods of his life.”
When asked if Lang’s legacy would continue in the new Superman & Lois series, Kreuk thought it was “cool,” even though he didn’t know much about the show.
“I don’t know much about the show, but it looks like it’s going to be a lot of fun,” Kreuk began.
“She’s a great character, and with the freedom that creators have now when it comes to comic book characters, I think they can adjust her and adapt her to a more modern position in the world,” he added.
Kreuk admitted that since this version of Lang is in his 30s or 40s, “I imagine Lana is a very different character in a different universe.”
‘I’m excited to… hear how the show portrays her. “She’s an interesting character in the canon, so having her in a predominant role in this new show is fantastic,” Kreuk added.
Kristin is also known for playing Catherine Chandler in Beauty and the Beast, as well as Joanna Hanley in Burden of Truth two years later.
The Smallville star added that Chirqui is “wonderful and very nice,” adding, “I’m sure she’ll be fine.”
Kreuk played Lang in seven of Smallville’s 10 seasons, although he added that he no longer feels an “intense” connection to the show, which starred Tom Welling as Clark Kent in the years before he became the superhero Superman.
‘It’s really fun that Smallville is being incorporated into current comic shows. It seems like we’re on a continuum, which is really interesting,” Kreuk added.
When asked if she would be interested in guest starring on Superman & Lois, Kreuk added, “Yes, totally, depending on what it was.” It would be so much fun.’
