When news first came out about the characters we would be seeing in Superman & Lois, it was noted that Lana Lang and her husband Kyle Cushing had two daughters… yet, we had only been hearing about one (Sarah, played by Indie Navarrette) in the months to follow.
Well, we have an update to that: KryptonSite has gotten official confirmation that actress Joselyn Picard will be playing Sophie Cushing, the younger daughter of Lana. The role will be a “recurring guest star” part.
Joselyn was born and raised until the age of four in Barcelona, Spain, where she attended her local school learning to speak Spanish and Catalan. Following that, she moved with her family to Vancouver, Canada attending a French immersion school. An avid reader who is a huge fan of Harry Potter, Joselyn’s hobbies include exploring the outdoors, camping, hunting for mushrooms, biking, swimming, skiing and spending time with her friends and family.
Joselyn’s debut television role was in the Netflix sci-fi series Away starring Hilary Swank, and she could also be seen in Gabby Duran and the Unsittables on Disney+. She is represented in Vancouver by Sarah Davis from Premiere Talent Management.
Here’s the official character description for Sophie Cushing:
The youngest daughter of Lana Lang and Kyle Cushing, Sophie is a spirited, rebellious eight-year-old who’s quite a handful.

In SUPERMAN & LOIS, after years of facing megalomaniacal supervillains, monsters wreaking havoc on Metropolis, and alien invaders intent on wiping out the human race, the world’s most famous superhero, The Man of Steel aka Clark Kent (Tyler Hoechlin, “Teen Wolf”) and comic books’ most famous journalist, Lois Lane (Elizabeth Tulloch, “Grimm”), come face to face with one of their greatest challenges ever – dealing with all the stress, pressures and complexities that come with being working parents in today’s society. Complicating the already daunting job of raising two boys, Clark and Lois must also concern themselves with whether or not their sons Jonathan (Jordan Elsass, “Little Fires Everywhere”) and Jordan (Alexander Garfin, “The Peanuts Movie”) could inherit their father’s Kryptonian superpowers as they grow older. Returning to Smallville to handle some Kent family business, Clark and Lois are reacquainted with Lana Lang (Emmanuelle Chriqui, “Entourage”), a local loan officer who also happens to be Clark’s first love, and her Fire Chief husband Kyle Cushing (Erik Valdez, “Graceland”).
The adults aren’t the only ones rediscovering old friendships in Smallville as the Kent sons are reacquainted with Lana and Kyle’s rebellious daughter, Sarah (Inde Navarrette, “Wander Darkly”). Of course, there’s never a dull moment in the life of a superhero, especially with Lois’ father, General Samuel Lane (Dylan Walsh, “Nip/Tuck”) looking for Superman to vanquish a villain or save the day at a moment’s notice. Meanwhile, Superman and Lois’ return to idyllic Smallville is set to be upended when a mysterious stranger (Wolé Parks, “All American”) enters their lives. Based on the characters from DC created by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, SUPERMAN & LOIS is written and executive produced by Todd Helbing (“The Flash”) and executive produced by Greg Berlanti, Sarah Schechter, Geoff Johns. The series is from Berlanti Productions in association with Warner Bros. Television.
