I'm so happy to hear he will be cast as Lex Luthor. Honestly, I think he's a perfect pick to play Lex, especially if you've seen his performance on the show 'The Great', which I really think solidifies how well he could play Lex Luthor as on that show he can play a charismatic and charming man of power while still having an underlying layer of cunning, cruelty and imposing menace. I absolutely cannot wait to see his performance! Him and David Corenswet on screen together could give us one of the best depictions of the iconic rivalry put to screen, maybe even become one of the best CBM rivalries as I can imagine his dynamic with Corenswet's Superman will be *ELECTRIC!!!* I also find it ironically poetic how he couldn't get cast as Batman or Superman yet is cast as Lex, which I imagine will be a great personal motivation when playing as Lex We have never had a good Lex Luthor in a live-action Superman movie, so Nicholas Hoult as Lex could finally give us the intelligent businessman/calculating evil genius we've been begging for on screen.

Definitely a safer and more conventional choice than Howerton. Hoult's been golden for over a decade, and he seems to be on the shortlist for almost everything that isn't a big action spectacle. He's done prestige, he's done comic book, he's done romance, he's done comedy. Former child actor turned movie star, or about as close as most people can get to being movie stars these days. And he's still pretty young, so if all goes well, he could play the roll for 20 years or more if he wants to. My only reservation is that he's starting off too young for Lex. I would have liked to see a clearer break from Eisenberg.
@ProjektTaku
@ProjektTaku Жыл бұрын
Fair, but I think his overall build and demeanor is different enough from Eisenberg that its a non-issue. Plus, they could be doing the "Lex and Superman are contemporaries/maybe teenage buddies?".

@@ProjektTaku Well, the writing and directing are going to make a far greater difference than the actor chosen. I was just hoping for a more mature (Clancy Brown-esque) Lex. I prefer Lex to embody the status quo that Superman, by his very existence, can't help but challenge. Sure, Superman stands up for the little guy, but the little guy usually has to fear the big guy more than the monster/mutant/scientist psycho of the week. Lex represents traditional authority, the sort people had to run to for help because there was literally no other power (no Zorro, no Robin Hood) to appeal to. Superman is a challenge to this centuries-old, even feudalistic, relationship between commoner and Lord. For a young man, Supes' age, to represent this age-old authority? Doesn't fit. I prefer an older Lex.
@ProjektTaku
@ProjektTaku Жыл бұрын
@@andrewklang809 I do enjoy the DCAU lex, but this can work as well. We don't often get to see what Lex did to get big in metropolis, its kind of just implied he used his super-smarts in some vague way to help, along with shady business. If you really want Superman to embody his "Champion of the oppressed" title, Morgan Edge could work, if they want to go with the traditional version instead of the fantastic S&L Superman's brother version, and be the rep for the status quo, and once he's defeated Lex fills in that gap. Plus Lex can grow with this Superman into the mature version of the DCAU. People often forget that Lex & Supes being contemporaries isn't new, goes way back to the silver age with the first Alexander Luthor (Earth-2's Lex was named Alexei was quite a bit different from that lex and the modern one, more psychotic and bloodthirsty).

I think, and this is entirely just a random theory, Lex will be Lois and Clark’s (not as Superman) villain in this. I imagine this will show Clark having to actually balance the two lives. Clark and Lois are investigating LexCorp because Lois has a hunch that Luthor is up to something and Clark tags along because of his feelings for her, maybe Jimmy is there too sort of Adventures with Superman style. And then Clark has to disappear at points to deal with the Engineer which will lead to him coming back to Lois when she’s confronting Lex because he “got lost” or something like that. Idk, just an idea

Totally agree about the "north stars" for Lex: the DCAU Lex as voiced by Clancy Brown is what I imagine, while Rosenbaum did a great job embodying a more human, nuanced Lex. I found Cryer grating in what I saw of him, but I didn't watch Supergirl so I missed out on most of his stuff, just Crisis on Infinite Earths and previews for Supergirl. Much as he has problems, I think Kevin Spacey did a solid job of melding the Gene Hackman more jokey Lex with menace, which is certainly a route to consider, was not that big on the Lois & Clark Lex (or much else of that show).

The writing on Smallville frequently had me rolling my eyes, but Michael Rosenbaum consistently gave a solid performance. Supergirl also had a lot of eyeroll seasons, but season 4 was by far the strongest (in terms of writing...with the budget and schedule of that show, you kind of just have to take the production value for what it is) and Jon Cryer was another (surprisingly) great Lex, and very well utilized for that storyline. But animation is really where there have been multiple very consistent, very well executed takes on Lex. Clancy Brown's version in the DCAU being the most notable, obviously. I hope this will be the first cinematic Lex to come close to any of those.

In The Great Nick does a phenomenal job of getting across a character who has goodness in him, but through a very abusive set of parents encouraging his cruelty and just generally sucking, along with having power all his life that entitlement doesn't feel like a strong enough word to describe, has caused him to be a selfish, cruel and insecure person.

Also idk how I’m just now seeing a this, but have any of us realized the comparisons between Clark and Lex and Woody and Buzz?? It’s mostly just the colors, but now I wanna stew on this and see if I can create anything else

This is why DC is on top of Marvel now. Marvel would have made an unqualified diversity pick and made Lex a black, female, lesbian with a sassy actor who had NO connection to the material. DC instead picked a actor who will be bringing a "grudge" to the table after being passed over for playing Superman and Batman. The reason why RDJ, Helmsworth, Evans and Boseman all worked is because they all identified with the character they were playing. This Lex will go down as the greatest Lex Luther of ALL TIME!! ✌🏾✌🏾

I hope he gets the Warsuit at some point. I don't think we've had a live action Warsuit yet. Also I hope he's in other DC movies. Luthor is Superman's nemesis, but he should kind of have his fingers in every pie. I'm picturing evil white Nick Fury with two eyes saying "I'm here to talk to you about the Legion of Doom initiative."

Please make an intimidating LL. Weve seen the smart and sophisticated Luthor, I think we all want an intimidating and sophisticated Luthor like the one from the Animated aeries

Idk how to say this but I just want him to put on a little more muscle, like I want to see a scene like in that animated movie where he’s working out and talking about how hard he strives to get as close to Superman as HUMANLY possible.
