Obviously with a name like Justice League, we can assume the film will be jam-packed full of characters, but up until recently, whether or not Lex Luthor would make an appearance was up in the air. Following the release of Batman v Superman, actor Jesse Eisenberg, who portrays the maniacal wunderkind in the DC Extended Universe told the press that he wasn't sure if and when Lex would pop back into the story.
Now it looks like things have changed. At the recent McM London Comic Con, Eisenberg shared that Lex would, in fact, be showing up in Justice League, and that he was merely waiting to get called in, Digital Spy reports.
"I'm kind of in wait, They just started filming Justice League, so I'm kind of like waiting for my crack at it.I don't know what I'm allowed to say, because I feel like there's probably some drone following me from DC,...

When Jesse Eisenberg was first cast as Lex Luthor in “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice” in January of last year, fans weren’t so thrilled. Eisenberg has been labeled as pretentious or arrogant, but doesn’t that fit the characteristics of Lex Luthor?
Eisenberg recently talked with The Diane Rehm Show and was asked by a fan what he used to develop and influence his portrayal of Superman’s archenemies. His response is rather interesting.
"I've always noticed the best thing to channel, as an actor, is yourself. To figure out what makes you angry, what makes you feel vengeful or righteous. Those are the feelings that Lex Luthor has. And use that as opposed to kind of watching Gene Hackman, who's a great actor obviously and played that part originally, and think, 'How can I kind of mirror that?'" "Because the truth is, me mirroring him would just come off weird.

During the Batman v Superman portion of Warner Bros.' Hall H panel at Comic-Con this past Saturday, Jesse Eisenberg looked pretty bored. Perhaps he didn't want to be there or doesn't like the publicity side of making movies, but you would think that he would have been impressed by having more than 7,000 passionate fans cheering both him and the movie he stars in. In an interview yesterday Eisenberg was asked about his Comic-Con experience, and he's apparently not a fan; "It is like being screamed at by thousands of people. I don't know what the experience is throughout history, probably some kind of genocide. I can't think of anything that's equivalent." If you're planning on going to Comic-Con next year, be warned that the experience is basically like genocide. Yes, that's really how he described it. Will Eisenberg make a good Lex Luthor? Weigh in with your thoughts on...

There are so many things we still don’t know about Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice, and so much controversy surrounding the decisions being made that frankly, some things have gotten lost in the shuffle. One bold choice that was met with immediate criticism and then quietly disappeared was the casting of Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor. So much time has been spent debating Ben Affleck’s Batman casting, dissecting the new Batsuit and Batmobile, and fighting about Gal Gadot’s Wonder Woman casting that the new depiction of the iconic villain seems a bit like an afterthought.
Well, keep an eye on your Twitter and RSS feeds next week, because apparently LexCorp scenes are expected to start shooting on June 12th and 13th, and will likely come with a new wave of set photos and articles outlining each and every leaked detail.
The first nugget of information arrives from Batman-News.
