Lex Luthor

The DCEU’s version of Lex Luthor will be played by Jesse Eisenberg and he will make his first appearance in next year’s Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.
Like most versions of the character, he won’t be physically powerful, but he will be a genius and a master manipulator whose impact on the franchise and the world within it will be huge.
He will orchestrate – or at least influence – the battle between Batman and Superman. Then, once that battle is concluded (probably amicably, incidentally), he will make it his mission to take down the Man of Steel.
However, he will also have a vested interested in superhumans in general, so don’t be surprised to see him putting together teams of supervillains to combat the Kryptonian hero in future.
