When I think of Superman and Clark Kent, the first person that pops into my head is Lex Luther, Superman’s nemesis. Entertainment Weekly has revealed his first character picture. Jesse Eisenberg, who plays the role of Lex Luther in the upcoming DC Comics film Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, has hit the nail on the head. When I picture Luther, I would have never pictured Eisenberg. I was wrong. In just his one look, he got it. Evil. Menacing. Bald. He’s got it all.
Little has been said yet as to the plot of the film. The snippets that we have been given haven’t been very forthcoming. We do know that the movie will feature Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman. The film is intended to be the sequel to 2013’s Man of Steel.
Obviously from this picture, we are guaranteed that Lex Luther will be making an appearance. And, with the second reveal of the day, we also know that Aquaman will be involved.
Zack Snyder, director of the movie, tweeted out the first picture of Jason Momoa as Aquaman

Alongside Momoa and Eisenberg, we have Henry Cavill (Superman), Gal Gadot ( Wonder Woman) and Ben Affleck (Batman).
I guess we will just have to keep our eyes peeled for any new info they want to throw our way. Or we will have to wait until 2016 when it hits theaters.
