The Greatest Criminal Mind of Our Time: Nicholas Hoult IS Lex Luthor

[Invader Joker]

On the older side but maybe Josh Hartnett:

Or Tom Pelphrey:

Maybe even Boyd Holbrook:

Speak of the devil.

Speak of the devil.

I need the origins of this costume ASAP, pls.

 

[Invader Joker]

I need the origins of this costume ASAP, pls.

Well

 

[flickchick85]

So it was created just for that movie? Goddammit.

Also, Ratner is scum, but I'm glad he just inadvertently debunked the myth perpetuated by The Cult that Cavill was the top pick for Flyby Superman. Didn't know the offer went to Hartnett first, but I was not here for that Matt Bomer erasure lol.

 

[Alien Anal]

Oh man I love seeing costume pics! I can't believe we finally get to see Hartnett in the suit.

If anything this tells me I certainly don't want the black and need the yellow, it's too grim looking for me.

 

[Eddie Dean]

He looks uncomfortable

 

[flickchick85]

He looks uncomfortable

It probably is.

 

[Sawyer]

He looks uncomfortable

It probably is.

I mean, that’s also kind of just… his face.

 

[TheScarecrow]

I fear to find out the reason why the studio didn't want Bomer.

Bomer's friend already put that out there years ago. It's exactly what you'd think.

 

[Invader Joker]

I think Bill Skarsgard may be out of the running for this.

The "Welcome to Derry" show is set to resume filming in January 22 and end on June 28, which obviously will overlap with Superman: Legacy filming. And I know that Bill said he's not on that show, but it later came out that he was BSing which sounds about right since if they had cast a new Pennywise that news would've come out already, and it'd be weird for him not to be involved since Muschietti is.

I was around during that time period and I never heard of Henry Cavill or remember his name being branded about by anyone (but I do remember Boomer being named as like the unknown that either McG or Ratner wanted vs. the big name like Hartnett that the studio wanted).

Same, which is why it’s been annoying to me seeing a certain fandom rewrite history like that. I get that he was in the mix, along with every other young actor at the time, but he was never chosen for the role by anybody involved.

 

[Babillygunn]

I’d love Alexander Skarsgard or Hoult.

Or for an out-there choice, I would suggest my personal choice for the next James Bond: Tom Hughes.

 

[Boom]

Alexander Skarsgard
Bill Skarsgard
Glenn Howerton
Will Poulter

Those are my guys.

Cavill was McG's choice. He confirmed it in an interview. This all happened after Ratner left, who wanted Bomer.

 

[Silvermoth]

Mcg and ratner. What grim choices for an iconic character

I was here. It was insane. We heard names from Law to Cavill. You didn't know what to, or what not to, believe.

Alexander Skarsgard
Bill Skarsgard
Glenn Howerton
Will Poulter

Those are my guys.

Of those, I like Poulter for Lex the best.

 

[Invader Joker]

 

[flickchick85]

Well. Ok then. Not my first pick but I’m sure he’ll do well.

 

[Invader Joker]

Yeah not my first choice either but well, we'll see if this is the role that finally showcases whatever it is that studio people keep seeing on him to try to push him for big roles. I will say he does look good bald.

 

[Boom]

Works for me. Saves Bill Skarsgard for Joker.

 

[WatchProtect]

Happy for Hoult definitely believe he can do a great job with this.

 

[Boom]

"Alright Hoult you know how you lost out on the Superman role? Now you jealous-hate it."
