Entertainment – Actress Noel Neill dies at 95

The first actress to play Lois Lane in the “Superman” film series, Noel Neill, has died. Neil passed away of natural causes on Sunday, her biographer, Larry Ward, said. She was 95. Ward said Neill’s personality suited the role of Lois Lane, the reporter at the Daily Planet. “She basically played herself. She was exactly the same person on the screen as off the screen,” Ward said. Neill appeared in the 1948 “Superman” film serial and then in the 1950’s TV show “Adventures of Superman.” She later appeared in other Superman films, including playing the role of Lois Lane’s mother in the 1978 version.
