Earlier this month,
ComicBook.com reported that Japanese actress Tao Okamoto ("The Wolverine") would be playing the role of 'Mercy,' Lex Luthor’s assistant. The logical assumption is that 'Mercy' will be based on the comic book character, 'Mercy Graves.' She's a multi-talented assistant that can do the mundane chores like driving Lex around while also doing the risky chores like unleashing her amazing hand-to-hand skills. A few weeks ago on her Instagram account, Tao posted an image showing that her hair had been cut for a recent role, which is obviously for Zack Snyder's
Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. And today, she's posted a new image revealing the extent of that hair cutting.
As for Jesse Eisenberg, we haven't seen any recent images of him, except for that photo of him on the
American Ultra set that had a lot of site fooled. Now we have a new image of Jesse that was tweeted out by David Kwong. He worked with Jesse on his magician film,
Now You See Me, and last night he was in Detroit, Michigan performing magic at the Ford Motor Company. Jesse was there to support his friend and posed for a picture. Recent reports claim that Jesse's Lex will have blonde-ish hair that is resembles the late rocker, Kurt Cobain. Thus, Jesse may be wearing a wig underneath that baseball cap. What do you think?
BATMAN v SUPERMAN: DAWN OF JUSTICE - Zack Snyder will direct. It's written by Chris Terrio, from a screenplay by David S. Goyer. The film stars: Henry Cavill as Superman/Clark Kent and Ben Affleck as Batman/Bruce Wayne. The cast also includes: Amy Adams as Lois Lane, Laurence Fishburne as Perry White, Diane Lane as Ma Kent, Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor, Ray Fisher as Cyborg and Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman/Diana Prince.
