After filming the first season of ''[[Edgemont (TV series)|Edgemont]]'' (a teenage soap opera set at a Vancouver-area high school) and getting herself an agent, Kreuk landed the lead role of Snow White in a TV movie, ''[[Snow White: The Fairest of Them All]]'', which aired on [[American Broadcasting Company|ABC]], and later released on DVD, in 2002. In mid-2004, Kreuk took the role of Tenar for the [[Syfy|Sci-Fi Channel]]'s two-part miniseries ''[[Earthsea (miniseries)|Earthsea]]''. The miniseries was filmed in Vancouver, directed by [[Robert Lieberman]] and broadcast on December 13, 2004.

After ''Snow White'', Kreuk's agent sent an audition tape to screenwriters [[Alfred Gough]] and [[Miles Millar]], who at the time were putting together the cast of a show they had created for the [[The WB|WB Network]] (now The CW) entitled ''[[Smallville]]''. The series, which was slated to be shot in Vancouver, revolves around the life of teenager [[Clark Kent (Smallville)|Clark Kent]] before he becomes [[Superman]]. Gough and Millar called Kreuk to WB's studios in [[Burbank, California]] to audition for the role of Clark Kent's first love, Lana Lang, and she was later cast in the part. For a while, Kreuk was starring on both ''Smallville'' and ''Edgemont'', although her role on ''Edgemont'' slightly diminished over time. ''Edgemont'' ended its run in 2005. After seven seasons, Kreuk left ''Smallville'' in the beginning of 2008, when her character leaves town. She returned as a guest star in the show's 8th season for five episodes to conclude her storyline.

In 2009, Kreuk signed on for a multi-episode arc in [[List of Chuck episodes#Season 3 (2010)|season three]] of ''[[Chuck (TV series)|Chuck]]''.<ref>{{Cite magazine|first=Michael|last=Ausiello |url=https://ew.com/article/2009/09/02/exclusive-smallville-heroine-kristin-kreuk-joins-chuck/|title=Exclusive: 'Smallville' heroine Kristin Kreuk joins 'Chuck'|magazine=[[Entertainment Weekly]] |publisher=[[Meredith Corporation]]|location=New York City|date=August 27, 2009 |access-date=July 24, 2010 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20101028051904/http://ausiellofiles.ew.com/2009/09/02/exclusive-smallville-heroine-kristin-kreuk-joins-chuck/ |archive-date=October 28, 2010 }}</ref> She played Hannah, a computer troubleshooter who joins the Buy More Nerd Herd after being laid off from her previous job.
