Now that we know who will play Lex Luthor in Batman Vs. Superman -- it’s Jesse Eisenberg! -- some details on how director Zack Snyder and Warner Bros. came to cast the Social Network actor are surfacing.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the filmmakers did consider going with a “veteran” to play Superman’s arch nemesis, which is to say an older guy. Tom Hanks, all 57-years of him, was discussed internally as a possible Lex, though he reportedly was never approached. Neither was the fan favorite pick of Bryan Cranston (it’s unclear whether or not the studio even considered the Breaking Bad actor for the role).
