The Official Lex Luthor Casting Thread

[Puckenstein]

I suppose you're right. I just hope they go with the right one. Since Hardy's off the table, I'm reverting back to the likes of Bettany.

 

[TheWatcher]

Bettany would be awesome in the role.

That mag cover is EPIC!

 

[Mr. Earle]

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

Looks like the Batman villain called Great White Shark. Guess why that is...

 

[MadVillainy]

I wouldnt mind Bettany and I love that cover

Leo would be good, but as someone mentioned his head might look weird bald. I'd like to see more manips of him as Lex

 

[Changeling]

George Clooney for Lex Luthor . . .

i like you

ehh no thanks

 

[GreenKToo]

Ewan McGregor
Kevin Bacon
Jason Isaacs
Sean Penn

 

[Gamma Goliath]

^ Isaacs would be good.

 

[SuperDaniel]

Edward norton!!

 

[Mr. Earle]

I love Norton and Isaacs but i dont see them as Lex.

My dream Lex would be a younger Clancy Brown, realistically though, i think that Hardy can be a good Lex if he can lose the accent.

 

[GreenKToo]

It's too bad Rosenbaum couldnt be used, I loved his Lex.

 

[Rust]

If they cast an unknown for Supes, believe me they'll go Batman on this one and cast stars in supporting roles like Lex and the Kents. They HAVE to to draw people in.

 

[ScottishFogg]

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

He might be too old now, but I wouldn't mind him for Superman!

 

[GreenKToo]

I expect the entire cast to be well known. I'd even wager the guy that gets cast as supes this time will be pretty decently known. In other words, I dont think he'll be from the soaps or TV commercials.

 

[Rust]

Crappy news about Hardy if true, but I can see why Nolan wanna "bag" him first and foremost for Batman part III.

I wonder how much influence Nolan has on the casting for the Superman reboot. At some point he MUST have thought about Hardy for Luthor.

Good lord, if I had a penny for every time Isaac's name is mentioned, I would be able to out buy out Donald Trump and his company along with his golden toilet for the **** of it.

heh I know what you mean. The same goes for Johnny Depp and Scarlett Johannsen. If I had a pound for every time I heard those names suggested for a role, I would buy a series of tropical islands and set about nation building the wonderful world of Silvermothonia.

 

[batman11]

If I had a penny for every "If I had a penny..." post I saw in the last 24 hrs, I'd have two pennies.

Which makes me poor.

 

[DorkyFresh]

i know i'm gonna get a lot of heat for this...




...but i'd actually like to see Nicolas Cage as Lex. i haven't liked his latest movies (besides Kick Ass) but i could totally see him as Lex.

I could see Cage for it, but my #1 choice for Luthor is Christopher Eccleston.

Amazing as per usual Puck, but this one takes the cake. 40 of them!
