Kristin Kreuk

Kristin Laura Kreuk was born December 30, 1982 in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. She is probably best known for playing Lana Lang in the TV series Smallville (2001-2008, 2009).

Before Kristin’s appearance on Smallville, she was a regular cast member on the Canadian teen drama Edgemont. She landed the role with very little prior acting experience due to the casting director of the series looking for an exotic-looking girl. Her exotic look is the result of having a Dutch father and Chinese mother.

Some of Kreuk’s other filmography includes Eurotrip, Legend of Earthsea, Dream Princess, Partition, Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li, Ben Hur, and Chuck.
