The first glimpse of Jesse Eisenberg as Superman’s nemesis Lex Luthor has been unveiled.
The Zombieland star is taking on the role opposite Henry Cavill as Superman and Ben Affleck as the Caped Crusader in Batman v Superman: Dawn Of Justice, and Entertainment Weekly have been given a sneak peek of Jesse in character.
Director Zack Snyder revealed: “He’s not any of the Lexes that you’ve seen, that’s for sure, other than him being a captain of industry and one person to the world and another person to himself. And bald, of course.
“Our Lex is disarming and he’s not fake. He says what he believes and he says what’s on his mind. If you can unravel the string and decipher what he means, it’s all there.”
Batman v Superman: Dawn Of Justice is due out in cinemas in March 2016.
