The notion of Meloni as Lex is a nice thought. Based upon his role as Chris Keller on HBO's Oz, the guy is perfectly capable of playing a cunning, machiavellian type character to say the very least.

With the approach they're going for with the re-imagining of the universe and also with Goyer's (and Nolan's) trademark twists then yeah, it's definitely something we should be prepared for.

Some poor photoshopping there considering it's official. Whoever tweaked it made it look like he's only got stubble above the right side of his lip

The Shield · 02-18-2013, 10:09 AM

F***ing Marvel took my Lex Luthor! Those Bustards!!

I think he's perfect for the role...love him

Rust · 02-18-2013, 10:26 AM

I think I'd prefer if he wasnt Lex, but rather worked for Lex in secret and reported back to him in one of the final scenes.
I still want a big name-surprise for Lex and a great introduction to him in the sequel. Then Meloni can be second in command of the Intergang.

Project862006 · 02-18-2013, 10:29 AM

i dont want him to end up being lex because i think lex needs a big name if we can get amy adams,michael shannon,russel crowe

meloni as lex would be underwhelming

I'm just a really big Meloni fan...I'd love to see him as Lex

fanboiii · 02-18-2013, 01:16 PM

I haven't really read articles that felt like Lex was missing. I hope he does get some kind of mention in the movie.

As a notable scientist/businessman involved in politics, I would imagine he would be vocal and people would pay attention to his reaction after hearing about Superman's "first encounter.

JosephCAW · 02-18-2013, 07:52 PM

see now all we need is a manip of that pic of Pearce to go with side by side with Superman, good vs. evil

JosephCAW · 02-18-2013, 08:45 PM

ok, again I'm not great at manips but this is what I got so far, red hair, green eyes, and title change

and one more, side by side with Superman lol

plz feel free to make it better cause yea...I know I suck at this

Yesterday I read Lex Luthor: Man of Steel and, to me, that's Lex Luthor done right. I get that version, I'm there.

Daniel Craig would be fantastic, still prefer another Daniel...Day Lewis, but there are many great choices out there...and some horrible ones we see time and again.

hopefuldreamer · 02-21-2013, 08:54 AM

Man I'd love it if Craig where announced. He'd be such an amazing choice

That manip makes Pearce look like an evil Rick Astley.

RadioSha · 02-22-2013, 11:40 PM

Daniel Day Lewis is perfect. His character in There Will Be Blood is so amazing. I've always viewed Lex as a similar figure in terms of ambition, grit, and obsession.

Couple that with charm and intelligence which I know DDL is more than capable of doing, then there's no discussion on why anyone would oppose this choice. Only he decides if he wants to be in the movie.

But I would like to bring up Jason Clarke again (Public Enemies, Lawless, and Zero Dark Thirty). The dude needs a breakthrough role.
