Tyler Hoechlin plays Superman and Elizabeth Tulloch portrays Lois. Jordan Elsass and Alexander Garfin play Jonathan and Jordan, their sons.
Returning to Smallville to handle some Kent family business, Clark and Lois are reacquainted with Lana Lang (Emmanuelle Chriqui), a loan officer who also happens to be Clark’s first love, and her fire chief husband Kyle Cushing (Erik Valdez).
Dylan Walsh plays Lois’ father, General Samuel Lane.
