ikr? He even wanted to play the part, but I guess he "cost too much money".


The same thing happened with the Avengers. Jon Favreau wanted more money, so then they kicked him off and added a cheaper director -- we ended up with an Avengers that just 'writes out' like an overly long episode of Buffy/Firefly.

Yes. I went there. What. O_o
 
this is actually casting which i completely agree with for this movie. i really can see eisenberg pulling off the smug self made business man who just so happens to be the smartest human being alive. and he's not that young really. he's the same age as cavill
 
It's not about how he looks. It's how he can pull off the Alpha Male role. Judging by Social Network, this guy has got it DOWN.

Sorry - I will see the film to see what happens, but as soon as I saw his name this is the only image that came to mind:

And I simply CANNOT compute anything else right now.

That actually sounds like a better idea than this.

While Jesse is not a bad actor I just can't see him as Lex Luthor and my faith in this movie is now dropping like below zero.

I couldn't see Superman not wearing his underwear on the outside either or without his signature curl.

Whoa... we are so at odds when it comes to superheroes.

I dislike the Spider-Man Reboot, Batfleck, and Gadot as WW (while you don't mind those things)...

Meanwhile, I actually kind of like the idea of JE being LL.

Also, there's the fact that I still like Taskmaster more than Deadpool, but that's another matter altogether.

I don't like Gadot as WW.
