Lex Luthor and Alfred casted for the Batman/Superman movie in 2016.

[ShaRpY HaRdY]

Well two more big roles casted for this movie...

Lex Luthor will be played by Jesse Eisenberg,
you may know him from movies like 30 minutes or less, Social Network, Adventureland, Zombieland, Now You See Mee, much more etc...

and then Alfred will be played by Jeremy Irons,
you may know him from man in the iron mask, The Borgias (series), Scar in the Lion King and many others.

Not too sure about Eisenberg playing Luthor.. Seems they went way off the size characteristics but he's a solid actor so I'm sure he'll be okay. Irons will be a great Alfred, he's got the look and can play the part well, he's got a pretty wide range of emotions.

Scar was a fucking beast. Only Mufasa is the better lion, Simba cones close, but Scar was the one of the best top heels ever.

Eisenberg?!?! :facepalm: between him and Affleck this is shaping up to be Schumaker Batman level of quality.

Eisenberg might be strange, but could work out. Either way it's a batman/superman movie and I'm excited.

 

[F.R.I.E]

Jeremy Irons is awesome. Idk about Eisenberg, though. Seems strange.

It's actually not too bad for Eisenberg actually, I didn't realize he was the same age as Cavill, that's really accurate because Lex is supposed to look the same age.. And Lex is a pretty smart guy and Eisenberg gives off that vibe.
Also I think The Town and Argo showed that Affleck has an emotional range now as opposed to Daredevil so it could be a pretty solid flick.

No Caine?

No Caine?

Well they asked him, but when he found out Affleck was batman this was his reaction:

Affleck is sexy doe.

Michael Caine said he would come back and be Alfred anytime, but if you look at Jeremy Irons, he's got a vintage comic Alfred look to him, I think they wanted to stray\ away from the recent trilogy actorwise.

 

[seabs]

Caine > all.

Jesse Eisenberg could never look even similar to this guy in a million years.

I'll watch it. I think Eisenberg can pull it off. As long as he deepens his voice. He's a pretty good actor.
