The Official Lex Luthor Casting Thread - Part 4

[Rodrigo90]

I find a bald Lex so unrealistic. I mean with invention of Rogaine, wigs and hair plugs you think he would do something with all that money.

There is always an excuse. Apparently, Lex being bald, gives him a sense of power and toughness. That's why us guys shave down there

So why hasn't Charles Barkley done anything about his?

 

[Lily Adler]

He's too busy doing- Wait what does Charles Barkley do these days?

Whatever he does....he does it bald, yo?

 

[Eddie Dean]

I think we are all missing the obvious choice -

[KalMart]

Dicaprio.

 

[Lily Adler]

Just get Arnold so he can deliver some fantastic bald puns.

 

[Lord]

Mad Scientist, Inventor and corrupt businessman, if he's only a businessman he's not Lex Luthor, Lex must be a scientist and really smart. He must be constantly trying to achieve human perfection

LOL Lex will constantly eat Miracle Whip, and say the line "It's the Superman, stupid!"

I've been shaving my head for the past 16 years. Sometimes it's just a life choice.

Hosting Saturday Night Live! tonight.

Disclaimer: I'm no fan of Barkley's. I'm just answering the question. ha.

I agree. It's ok to add things, but don't take away traits that the character started out with, otherwise, what's the point? If you want a character who's a corrupt businessman and nothing else, make a new villain.

 

[Llama_Shepherd]

He should found his business inventions that he sold to the government. Then Superman comes along and crazy inventions turn to insane creations.

 

[DIRECTOR]

I still want Billy Zane
Matt Damon and Bradley Cooper are out of left field that it hurts that they are even mentioned here

 

[DorkyFresh]

I'd be all for Bradley Cooper as Lex. He was awesome in Limitless.

 

[Sebastos]

I just don't see Cooper as Lex to be honest.

 

[manofsteel4life]

With us getting professor Hamilton....I wouldn't be surprised if that's a future sign that lex will be involved me hopes....

 

[Project862006]

i really like the idea of cooper i have limitless maybe i should watch it lol

 

[elgaz]

Still think Damian Lewis would be in my top 3 actors for Lex

 

[hopefuldreamer]

As much as I'd love for that to be true, I don't see how...

 

[manofsteel4life]

Well if they go the angle of lex buying Star labs then maybe......but I agree that's a big maybe....

 

[\S/JcDc\S/]

I still like Patrick Wilson, J. Pheonix, and Daniel Craig if we get Lex. I do agree that Hamilton being a character could actually be a good sign if the story intertwines him with Lex somehow. It is a possibility. Is there a reason they would be so secretive about Lex? All I can figure is an existing actor/character is covering the role and it's relating to the story in not revealing who he actually is.

 

[Kryptonian Warrior]

On average, is Lex usually around the age of CK/Superman? I just had a name in mind for Lex, but he is an older gentleman and I'm sure that most people would not like the suggestion. The name I have in mind is Patrick Stewart. Yes, Captain Piccard and NO I wasn't thinking of him because of his semi-baldness. I just really like him as an actor and I think he would be an interesting choice. Remember, I'm not lobbying for him to get the part or anything, rather it's simply a name that I wanted to throw out there.

 

[Project862006]

he already is an iconic bald super hero lol

 

[Llama_Shepherd]

Only for a portion of the modern age was Luthor significantly older than Superman.

 

[Lily Adler]

Patrick Stewart as Lex Luthor? I could get behind it, but I still would like someone else.
