BvS Lex Luthor Casting Thread - Part 4

I just want to say that I hope this doesn't precipitate a crap load of Snyder and Co. bashing here. Cuz, do you really think Snyder had NO say in the potential news from today? Casting, script? Yeah, the director would have a lot of input there I would think, if not the Lion's share.
 
The rumor awhile back... Joaquin was the first actor Ben went to with Live by Night.

I hope both happens.
 
Just some speculation here. But let's say Phoenix IS being eyed for a villain, but NOT Lex Luthor. Who else might he be a good fit for? Brainiac?
 
I like Snyder and I'm happy to hear another writer is coming onboard. I was very pleased by Man of Steel but a lot of people weren't so bringing in different people will hopefully address the problems people had with the first film.

I will be as excited as I was in September 1996 when the Nintendo 64 came out if Phoenix boards this film. And you guys should know I was pretty ****ing excited that day.

Of course they have a say, and it was most likely their idea (if this rumor is true). Despite what someone people want to believe, decisions aren't being forced on the filmmakers of these films.
 
Not gonna lie: Phoenix as Lex is as perfect as you can get and I'll literally give myself a self-high five because I'm pathetic like that. DAMN THAT WOULD BE fu#%$% awesome.

:lmao:

I think that will be the new thing in 2014. Selfie high fives.

They were in The Master and Her together. :woot:

Yes.

He's gonna accept the role! He must.


Who wouldn't want to work with an oscar winning director, an oscar nominated actress x2, a nice British guy, a hot Israeli, Morpheus, dude who was involved in the Dark Knight and a fanboy director?
 
Maybe if we all beg Mr. Phoenix he will make our dreams come true (Well it's my dream Lex casting and a few others here).
 
This is good because Phoenix is roughly the same age as Affleck give or take a few years.

I always thought Bruce and Lex should be the same age.
 
Yeah, it would be ideal because he's not too old like some of the names that have come up (Cranston, Washington) and is a huge name.

lol...we know now, ISS. We know now...lol

Seriously though, I will be very excited if he agrees to this role. I don't think he will. It really doesn't seem like his bag, but if he does...WOW. He is a phenomenal actor of the same caliber as DDL. He could be a great Lex and one like we have never seen before.

I'll be interested to see if he takes it...I'm skeptical, but he might. It's not totally impossible, so there is hope.

Makes sense. I like the angle.

just fixed up for ya. :woot:
 
WB should pay him what ever he wants, and a no promotions/interviews option.

Do not trust to hope. It has forsaken these lands.
