BvS Lex Luthor Casting Thread - Part 4

[MrsKent26]

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

No!

 

[I SEE SPIDEY]

So I think this proves that they are at least trying to go for a more youthful Lex.

 

[KRYPTON INC.]

No!

I could not say it better myself.

Yes, even if JP doesn't take, this does give me a good idea of what they are going for...and the type of actor they are looking for. JP brings that emotional thunder! You don't bring in that sort of actor for nothing.

 

[Black Narcissus]

I'm ready to accept his "NO"

But I want to believe!

You guys and these gifs...lol t:

My reaction if he accepts. t:

 

[STARMAN]

I'm going to be optimistic and imagine him accepting.

 

[Loki882]

So now the question is, who's playing Mercy?

 

[Wise]

Who knows. He's played a DC character before...

 

[Kane52630]

Killer Croc.

 

[MrsKent26]

I'm going to be optimistic and imagine him accepting.

Me too. Awww, yeah.

 

[I SEE SPIDEY]

Who knows. He's played a DC character before...

It was truly Mr. Phoenix's finest performance.

 

[charl_huntress]

Who knows. He's played a DC character before...

What in the hell is this? Something from Superboy?

 

[KRYPTON INC.]

Who knows. He's played a DC character before...

Que es eso? This went over my head. Is that JP?

 

[Black Narcissus]

I'm going to be optimistic and imagine him accepting.

 

[I SEE SPIDEY]

Yes that is Phoenix as a boy in Superboy I think.

 

[charl_huntress]

Yes that is Phoenix as a boy in Superboy I think.

lol...I could watch it and find out...but NO.

 

[Wise]

Que es eso? This went over my head. Is that JP?

Yeah that's a very young Phoenix. It's from something in the 80's. A TV show I think. I can't remember where.

 

[Derrick9592]

Who knows. He's played a DC character before...

Ming blown! For a second there, I thought it was his brother, River.

 

[I SEE SPIDEY]

I think he was still going by Leaf Phoenix at the time but I'm not sure.

 

[charl_huntress]

Yeah that's a very young Phoenix. It's from something in the 80's. A TV show I think. I can't remember where.

It's likely Superboy, which was a very bad TV show.

I really hope we get Phoenix...that is something out of this world, but not out of the norm of possibilities. As Wise said earlier, good ole Jack did play Joker in the Burton Batman film, so it could happen.

I know that the thumbs thing has been around for centuries but man, Gladiator made it popular and relevant in pop culture. I never thought about how influential that film is, especially with the iconic line: "Are you not entertained?"
