Dammit.

I wonder who he might play in Batman 3?

Dammit.

What if in a shocking twist he plays lex and nolan is tying his batman universe in with the new superman movies?

I know it'd go against what he's said before, but things do change.

 

[DorkyFresh]

major bummer....he is PERFECT for Lex Luthor...

Unless he plays LEX LUTHOR in this new Batman . . . oh what a TWEEST that would be! :~O

that's what I'm sayin . . . pretty much just wishful thinking, but not completely out of the realm of possibility

 

[TheWatcher]

^I want that to happen. OMGZ FTWZ NERD GASM.

 

[DV8]

if you think about it, it would really be perfect in every way . . . Lex Luthor is a seady tycoon that comes to Gotham to expand his comglomerate in Metropolis . . . he would be a rival to both Batman and Bruce Wayne . . . a foe on two levels!

 

[Puckenstein]

The bad news is, this means he probably won't be our Lex.
The good news is, he'll probably make one hell of a sadistic Riddler.

 

[Doctor Jones]

Bad news he ain't gonna be Lex. Oh, well. I still like Leo for Lex though.

But at least Hardy is involved in Batman 3. This news just made my week.

 

[Timstuff]

I don't think Leo has the right head shape to be Lex. It's disappointing that Hardy will probably not be Lex, but as they say, back to the old drawing board.

 

[GinsterHead]

Oh well. Now Hardy's probably in Batman 3, I think this guy should play Lex instead...

 

[rdh007]

We could do worse.

Well, if we couldn't get him for Superman I'm at least glad that Batman got him.

 

[Man of Tomorrow]

Lex is so easy to cast.

Losing Hardy to Batman is no big deal. There are tons and tons of more choices for Lex.

I hope TH is Black Mask.

 

[Mr. Earle]

Black Mask sucks bro. Dont you want an interesting villain?

 

[GreenKToo]

I expect a huge name for the role for Lex. It just seems like something they would do.

 

[Man of Tomorrow]

Black Mask can be awesome based on the script.

We're bound to have more than one villain.

I'd rather get some Nolanized versions of comic villains we havent seen onscreen yet than ones we have.

 

[GreenKToo]

I agree. I still think Lex, Brainiac, and prolly intergang will be what we get. ( thats if the zod rumor remains a rumor)

 

[SuperDaniel]

I think its obvious he is going to play the Riddler...

 

[DV8]

George Clooney for Lex Luthor . . .

 

[green]

I really cant stand the thought of Hamm for Superman but I definitely could go for him as Luthor.

 

[Puckenstein]

If they decide to go with good, not well-known actors for Lex, I wouldn't mind seeing Taylor Sheridan from Sons of Anarchy.

 

[Project862006]

looks like hammerhead

 

[MadVillainy]

You have to get a bigger actor for Luthor I think
