Superman actress Margot Kidder killed herself in drug and alcohol overdose, says coroner

 

The Canadian found fame with her role as Lois Lane in four Superman films

 

Superman actress Margot Kidder's death was suicide - caused by a "self-inflicted drug and alcohol overdose," a coroner has said.

 

Kidder, who played Lois Lane - the love interest of Christopher Reeve's Man of Steel, was found by a friend at her Montana home on 13 May.

 

At the time, her manager said Kidder, 69, had died peacefully in her sleep.

 

But a statement by Park County coroner Richard Wood said no further details would be released apart from the fact she died as a result of a "self-inflicted drug and alcohol overdose".

How sad, I loved Margot as the unwitting, but cute, fellow reporter of Clark Kent, alias Superman. No phone booths any more Clark.
