Fearing the actions of a god-like super hero left unchecked, Gotham City’s own formidable, forceful vigilante takes on Metropolis’s most revered, modern-day savior, while the world wrestles with what sort of hero it really needs. And with Batman and Superman at war with one another, a new threat quickly arises, putting mankind in greater danger than it’s ever known before.

Starring Ben Affleck as Bruce Wayne/Batman, Henry Cavill as Clark Kent/Superman, Gal Gadot as Diana Prince/Wonder Woman, with Amy Adams, Laurence Fishburne and Diane Lane returning from Man of Steel, Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor, Jeremy Irons as Alfred, and Holly Hunter in a role newly created for the film. Jason Momoa will also be making an appearance as Aquaman. Zack Snyder's Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice is set to open in theaters on March 25th, 2016. Are you excited?

@HugoStrange87 - I believe in this universe, Lex's father is also named Lex.

@HugoStrange87 - Probably someone else on his board at LexCorp.

@HugoStrange87 - It is a congressman from that early leak during filming. In the background is Holly Hunter.

Lex Sr. is already dead. I believe I read in a faux interview that Lex said his father died in 2002 or something.

@DavidGray - Oh right, I forgot they renamed him to Lex Sr.

Eisenberg as lex luthor is still the dumbest casting..

Eisenberg is going to have to knock it out of the park, as the trailers haven't convinced people about him, unlike Gadot who some people seem to be changing their opinion about.

He was good in Now You See Me and he did the action and serious parts well in AMerican Ultra, even if it was a crap movie.

@SimplyAz - he's a pretty decent actor. He just doesn't look like the traditional Lex. I'm sure he'll do fine with what he's given.

I personally like him and he has the range to do well.
He wouldn't be the first actor to change genres and and blow people away.

Maybe is the Father of Ted Kord, or Robert Queen.

Why does everyone have to "be someone?" He could just be a random guy Lex is talking to or a board member; an investor taking in a presentation. Everybody isn't some dc character all the time nor should they be. I don't want every character to be an Easter egg.

Because he's in a picture with one of the main cast, so clearly he's important.
