Smallville 'Lazarus' - Young Clark and Old Lex (Clex)

[@WarhawkBeyond2040]

Considering that Mackenzie Gray was only in one episode as Lex Luthor's older clone, he did an outstanding job channeling in Michael Rosenbaum's classic portrayal and even at times sounded like him from the way he delivered his lines. I would have loved to have seen him for a couple of more episodes until the real one eventually returned, he was brilliant.

[@marcuspena1211]

That moment when you notice that the guy who played this Lex played a Kryptonian scientist in Man of Steel

[@nmr20067]

So many Smallville actors in MOS, BvS, and even JL.. Zack Snyder loved Smallville.. He said he watched it with his kids.. He said his kids would not know who Superman was if it were not for Smallville..

[@Erock986]

His character is or was supposed to be the creator of Brainiac. FunFact #restorethesnyderverse

[@nickhydier1201]

@@nmr20067 Yes exactly. I remember him saying that if it wasn't for Smallville, his kids would be saying: "Who the Hell is Superman."

[@MKF30]

That is hilarious and cool I said the same thing!

[@MKF30]

@@nmr20067 Yup he also took alot from SV like Sullivan farm in one scene in the background in MOS among other things.

[@drlee2]

I thought this actor did a great job playing Lex. You could really "hear" Rosenbaum in his speech pattern.

[@philliphernandez2649]

I honestly thought that was the actors' first appearance on the show? I was looking up old clips, and he played one of the doctors that turned Victor Stone into Cyborg😮

[@johnstriker480]

He impersonated Michael Rosenbaum really well!

[@increditoaster]

I love this scene it really shows that no matter how broken Lex becomes, how mutated or old, he is still Lex, Clarks ultimate enemy. Even if it's for a day

[@antonydandrea]

I was always amazed by how similar to MR he sounds, like how he would sound when older

[@trevorgerardfrederick]

Whoever this guy is, he did a good job. There were parts where he sounded a lot like Michael. Hopefully at the end, the real Michael Rosenbaum can return.

[@Brandon.S.Brooker]

Too bad he didn't 😉

[@trevorgerardfrederick]

@@Brandon.S.Brooker ...He did. Very last episode.

[@Brandon.S.Brooker]

@@trevorgerardfrederick 😉

[@trevorgerardfrederick]

@@Brandon.S.Brooker I can't lie, my guy. I'm confused.

[@hazar209]

eventhough it's not Michael Rosembaum, i still say the actor who played the Lex clone portrayed better Lex Luthor than Kevin Spacey and Gene Hackmen.

[@DaveTravelsthroughTime]

Yeah he is actually quite good almost like a Klaus kinski count orlok lex quite spooky

[@MKF30]

What's funny is this guy was also in the DCEU as one of Zods henchman if memory serves when Clark was on the ship adapting and bleeding but then regained his powers.

[@smjth93]

WB & DC love recycling actors. Especially ones from the CW.

[@MKF30]

@@smjth93 Yep. Marvel does is as well with the MCU and Sony films at times. Its not a bad thing if done right imo.

[@axebomber2108]

Not just any henchman, Jax-Ur, who was the original #1 Phantom Zone villain before the Donner movies popularized Zod.

[@MKF30]

@@axebomber2108 True. I just remembered his face in MOS. But also fun fact amy Adam's and one of the other scientist guys were also in Smallville. The scientist dude was Emil I think he helped Clark and Chloe and Amy Adam's was one of the kryptonite freaks early on. It seems they liked. Martha Kent in SV played by Annette O' Toole was also Lana Lang in Superman III. Its funny how alot of Superman universe actors play different characters in another universe of DC.

[@1993MovieMan]

@NamanIV The Clone was played by Veteran Actor Mackenzie Gray . Gray also voiced Obadiah Stane/Iron Monger on " Iron Man : Armored Adventures " .

[@lenakataeva7525]

the only thing I don't understand is why real lex would give his memories to his clones? He needed them for organ donations, not for replacing himself

[@DavidNicholson101]

Lord Voldelex, couldn’t resist.

[@andrewcummings5764]

Lex out here looking like a vampire

[@terricajones1169]

😂

[@Retro77691]

Lmao so true 😆

[@alexpowers5117]

Yes he fits the 30 days of night vampire

[@manuelamartins9994]

He played the scientist that is chasing Victor (Cyborge) on season 5 episode 15

[@RANCE22808]

Manuela Martins he also played Jax-Ur in Man of Steel

[@sodamyat2965]

AWESOME scene.

[@Garp397]

THIS WAS an awesome episode and yes, this sounded like rosebaum's lex. I know we all want lex but Im hoping the season as a whole pays true and fitting tribute to the journey of smallville and reach a satisfying conclusion. And than hope for a superman spinoff:?

[@maynardjohnsonmusic5457]

Here from 10 years later, the spinoff sadly did not happen. Lets blame it on 2020 LOLOLOL

[@BlackvilleGrave33]

if the lex had truly wanted to hurt clark, he would have made clark believe that clark had killed him. that's the worst punishment.

[@Hwoarang8ify]

He looks like that old black and white soundless vampire from the 30s

[@alecpowers8591]

Count orlok

[@JoeChillton]

Machanzie Grey (Luthor here) is awesome.

[@tornadochaser2457]

I think this scene and subsequent scene, is inspired by the interrogation scene and then saving scene from The Dark Knight. *SPOILER ALERT* - Like Batman, Clark meets the villain of the piece, and they have a rather in-depth conversation about what both of them mean in the grander scheme of life. - Like Batman, Clark gets angry and loses control, attacking the villain, and acting in a way that is startlingly unheroic to the people perceiving it (Commissioner Gordon and Jor-El later on, in the Fortress of Solitude). - The villain gives the good guy(s) two things to save in a short, nerve-racking span of time, with the goal of making him/them fail. - The result is a heroic figure being deemed unworthy to be a hero anymore i.e. Harvey is injured and distraught over the loss of Rachel, and Jor-El deems Clark unworthy of being a hero after nearly taking a man's life.

[@blackghost4853]

You showed Great evidence between the two heroic figures

[@GregLilOluchi]

although I want Michael back I aint gonna take credit away from this actor here who is playing his clone, cuz there were moments u cud actually hear him speaking in a voice and tone tht resembled Rosembaum's Lex

[@orlandobabe]

They could’ve replaced Michael Rosenbaum with this guy. Remember everyone thought Lex died in the North Pole, maybe whatever medical treatment he was given changed him.

[@beybrain7896]

Why does Lex look like a goblin Voldemort lmao

[@andrewdilbeck9842]

It's a clone.

[@xQuinones716x]

@GregLilOluchi yeah at around 1:30, he says "Thats why you could never stop me" It reminded me of Michael.

[@DarthRushy]

Thumbs up if this Lex should've been the one in the finale. Would've made more sense than the "resurrection". Awesome actor.

[@millicay666]

@bigGIBBY150 really? thought it was because Lex came back from the death (i na freaky way) are you sure?

[@AxianTee]

I don't remember this scene but the post lex seasons were forgettable

[@humanspider2007]

was a cool scene.

He could've been de-aged through some krypto-whatever. I still haven't finished the horrorish season 9 though. But cliches are BIG in this show. Plot holes bigger than the Death Star.

that old lex looks like quan chi from mortal kombat look at those eyes

[@sweetlady31erin]

i think this lex should of tried to di a better job with his revenge plot. the other lex's from requiem and beacon seemed to do a better job with there act of revenge than this guy.he underestimated how fast clark is and this lex should of put the bomb in the daily planet instead of on the globe.this is a good scene though.
