#Quote
1[Comparing the wardrobe she wore playing Lois Lane in Adventures of Superman (1952) with Teri Hatcher's in Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman (1993)] I saw Teri in this beautiful dress with her boobs pushed up and I thought, "That's Lois Lane?!?!" I had a suit up to my collarbone. I felt like a horse with a bit in my mouth.
#Fact
1With the death of Noel Neill on July 3, 2016, she is the last surviving regular cast member of Adventures of Superman (1952).
2Profiled in the book "Johnny Mack Brown's Saddle Gals" by Bobby Copeland.
3Former Earl Carroll showgirl.
4Was accidentally punched during filming of Adventures of Superman: Night of Terror (1952), knocking her unconscious. The actor who punched her apologized profusely, but the actual punch was left in the episode, as there was no time to reshoot the scene.
5She has two roles in common with both Noel Neill and Teri Hatcher: (1) Neill played Lois Lane in Superman (1948), Atom Man vs. Superman (1950) and Adventures of Superman (1952), Coates played her in Superman and the Mole-Men (1951) and Adventures of Superman (1952) and Hatcher played her in Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman (1993) and (2) Neill played Lois' mother Ellen Lane in Superman (1978), Coates played her in Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman: The House of Luthor (1994) and Hatcher played her in Smallville: Abandoned (2010).
6Appeared at Captain Celluloid's Movie and TV World Convention. [May 2008]
7Along with Jack Larson and Jack Kruschen, she is one of only three actors to appear in both Adventures of Superman (1952) and Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman (1993).
8In what can be considered the "first sitcom," she appeared opposite George O'Hanlon, as Alice McDoakes, from 1948 to 1956 in the "Joe McDoakes" movie shorts.
9The first actress to appear as Lois Lane with George Reeves. Although Noel Neill played Lois Lane before Phyllis, it was not with Reeves but rather Kirk Alyn.
10She accepted the role in 1957's The Incredible Petrified World (1959) as a favor to its director, Jerry Warren, who was a former boyfriend. The actress originally cast in the lead couldn't do it and Warren couldn't find anyone else in time. He persuaded Coates to do it by telling her that the film would not be shown in California. However, after it was completed, she found out that Warren did indeed release the film in California, and she was told by at least one studio executive at Columbia that the film was so inferior and shoddy that the studio would not be hiring her again. On top of that, Warren never paid her.
11Years after gaining fame as TV's first Lois Lane on Adventures of Superman (1952), she played Lois Lane's mother on an episode of Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman (1993).
