How would you feel about this man playing Lex Luthor in Man of Steel 2?

[feelosofer]

Michael Rosenbaum was an amazing Lex. I wouldn't complain if by some chance he were to be cast the part in the film.

Yea dude was sohh underrated. He carried smallville.

 

[LexLuthor]

All I know is, it better be an absolute A list actor who understands Lex Luthor.
Lex luthor is the greatest villian ever, because as I've said on here, he is actually RIGHT. Superman would be a menace on earth and he makes humanity less important and relevant. Luthor is the wealthiest and at worst, 2nd smartest person on earth (Sivana might be smarter) and he is nothing compared to the alien. IMHO outside of his world domination efforts, everything he does to undermine superman is just. He is a very deep charactor and outsmarts superman and uses his code of ethics against him all the time. The actor should be forced to read every relevant version of luthor and especially read Lex Luthor Man of Steel, watch and read all star superman (TPB and movie), read the entire LEX:2000 arc, watch justice league and unlimited, and watch Spacey's portrayal of luthor.

This is the second most important casting of the series. If they botch this with BILLY ZANE or someone, I'll explode.

i don't realize so many people believe animated series Luthor was black

hey cac Lex Luthor in the cartoons was definitely black

I grew up on the late 90s series and always thought Lex was supposed to be black. Thats why it tripped me up whenever I saw white actors playing him in the movies.

What was he?

 

[THE 101]

You people are aware they can cast someone with hair as Lex?

I know it's incredible to conceive but Gene Hackman and Kevin Spacey weren't actually bald

 

[Wcthesecret]

because I want a new villain e.g. Doomsday, Braniac

The creators of the cartoon said that his design was based on Telly Savalas, a Greek guy.
