The Official Lex Luthor Casting Thread - Part 6

[N7 Joseph Shepard]

no....he has green eyes because.....that's the color of his eyes. It has nothing to do with Kryptonite

 

[Rowsdower!]

No, I didn't mean that it actually had something to do with Kryptonite. I just meant that they draw him with green eyes so that readers always associate him with the one thing that can kill Superman. I wasn't actually implying kryptonite turned his eyes green.

 

[Lencho01]

I just thought they gave him green eyes since he used to have red hair.

 

[Enriquespy]

For clear eyes go natural, go Cumberbatch.

 

[Sawyer]

Pearce

or

NOBODY!!!!

 

[Rodrigo90]

Is this nobody a good actor?

 

[Sawyer]

Be careful, Rodrigo.... I know your weaknesses. Swear fealty to Pearce or you'll never see Levy again.

 

[Rodrigo90]

You're bluffing...

 

[hopefuldreamer]

Am I the only one who doesn't want Pearce?

Does no one remember my insistant use of the word 'smarmy' while trying to put people off him for the role?

Or do you all want a smary Luthor? Huh, do ya?

 

[Sawyer]

Lex should be smarmy.

So long as he's played by Pearce.

That word's just not as effective as you think it is.

 

[Rodrigo90]

Unlikeable butth*** is what you should have said, hope

To answer your first question, yes.

 

[hopefuldreamer]

Damn...

Oh well, lucky for me it's not likely!

Ahahahahahaha!

 

[Gianakin_]

Edgerton. He'll be just right for this when MoS2 pre-production starts.

Do it. Do it. Do it.

 

[Dark Sentinel]

Man, Sawyer's got a hell of a man crush on Pearce

I think Billy Zane could use some work, personally. He'd be a good Lex, especially the Corrupt Businessman Lex.

 

[Sawyer]

Man, Sawyer's got a hell of a man crush on Pearce

You know it.

 

[Lily Adler]

I don't know, Sawyer's man crush on Cavill could be stronger.

Damn...

Oh well, lucky for me it's not likely!

Ahahahahahaha!

Oh that's it. It's on now honey.

 

[Gianakin_]

But isn't Sawyer a... a...

 

[Rodrigo90]

I'm genuinely curious to know

 

[samsnee]

Anyone buy this? I don't. I love how he makes it sound like a scoop, but it's speculation at best.

I like the idea of Guy Pearce for Luthor.

I seriously hope not. For Lex, go big or go home. I always loved the idea of Lex being played by someone who sort of lives that lifestyle outside of the film (like Tom Cruise in Magnolia). Things are a little fun when they're meta.

 

[The Shield]

I like the idea of Guy Pearce for Luthor.

Guy Pearce!! Yeah B****es!

Curious that he says "I can't say What I'm playing", instead of Who.
