It seems that Lex Luthor is the final "big" character to be cast in WB and Zack Snyder's Superman reboot. Now we haven't had any OFFICIAL word that Luthor will even appear in the movie but I'd say it's a pretty safe bet.
But who best to play him? The only name to have surfaced in connection with the role is relatively unknown actor Adam Harris. He has been actively campaigning for the part and is rumored to have actually been seen by Snyder and WB but that hasn't been confirmed. Other than that? Not a soul. It would appear that if the bald bastard is going to be in the movie that any kind of shortlist is being kept very hush hush. But with shooting expected to begin fairly soon and the rest of the main roles filled it shouldn't be too long before we get an announcement. Again, IF he will appear in the movie of course.
So who would you like to see play him? Billy Zane is a popular choice among fans(why I have no idea, he's bald and smarmy, that's it). There are others too. I've compiled a list of actors I have heard mentioned by the CBM faithful at some point and some I think would be good too. Along with some that clearly have no chance but it's just a bit of fun after all! Vote away..
Don't like the choices? Vote other! But be sure to leave a comment letting me know who you would choose. Remember, out of all these only Adam Harris as even been rumored to have been seen for the role.
