Lois Lane flies away to join Superman. The beloved actress who is most know for her role as Lois Lane from the original Superman films, Margot Kidder, has passed away. The news comes after The Hollywood Reporter confirmed her passing on May 13 while at her home in Livingston, Montana. Kidder was 69 years old.

Superman director Richard Donner said, “She was charming and very funny” as he remembered her coming into the casting agency and tripped as she came in.
