I'm personally really into how New 52 portrayed Lena as Lex's Achilles' hell, the one person he loves and actually listens to, so I definitely would like if that dynamic was recreated on the DCU.

Not bad, but… so soon after playing the sister of another famous comic book bald?

I actually completely forgot about that, I was looking at actresses on their late 20s on IMDb

Fancasting the Lane family for future projects:

Dean Norris - General Sam Lane

Bitsie Tulloch - Ella Lane in flashbacks/archive footage, continuing the tradition of the previous Lois playing Ella.

Grace Van Dien - Lucy Lane

 

[elgaz]

Dean Norris as General Lane, I can really see that

 

[hopefuldreamer]

Yeah I'm gonna third that, I could see it

 

[Sawyer]

Haley Lu Richardson is still my top choice for Lana Lang

Anyone think there's some Jor-El/Lara casting news to come after this?

I mean it seems like it would be nearly impossible to tell that story effectively without featuring them at all, so yeah.

Just odd that we've not heard yet

Still betting on Angela Sarafyan being Lara.

I'm guessing that their parts aren't big enough to merit an official casting announcement. Gunn also said that he prefers to keep some things secret, and this might be one of those things.

 

[GreenKToo]

It Could be two huge very familiar stars, or, two relatively unknowns. You never know with Gunn.
I wouldn't bet either way. No sir.

 

[Sawyer]

Still praying for Rooker as Bibbo.

 

[Gamma Goliath]

I feel like there's no way he's not at this point.

 

[Sawyer]

Kaya Scodelario for Lena Luthor pls.

 

[Silvermoth]

Still praying for Rooker as Bibbo.

That would be fun to see but I guess hard with such a big cast already

Ehh. I don’t think Bibbo requires a whole lot of screen time.

 

[Gamma Goliath]

Yeah bibbo needs like 3 mins of screen time, something inspirational and maybe like a rally for Superman.

Have I gone mad…?

 

[Sawyer]

But he’s so impish!

 

[Lily Adler]

But he’s so impish!

Sawyer we're not here auditioning your future husband.

 

[Lily Adler]

He'll get Martin Short and like it.

 

[hopefuldreamer]

Have I gone mad…?

So I googled 'Keiran Culkin impish' and... you're not NOT on to something
