So we left Lex Luthor in a position at the end of Batman V Superman where it certainly seemed like he will be back for Justice League as his story was only beginning, but it seems that Lex himself, Jesse Eisenberg, isn’t even sure…
Eisenberg has been talking about his place in the DC Cinematic Universe: “I don’t know if they are so settled on where my character goes,” Eisenberg said.
“I only hope I have another opportunity to work with these wonderful people and play this interesting character.”
For many, Eisenberg was the weak link in BvS but for others he was a highlight, so we’ll be curious to see if his character changes the next time we see him (we think he will but not due to fan/critic reaction but rather due to where his character was in the final scene).
Do you think he’s being coy or is there a chance, with Justice League only a few weeks from beginning production, that the actor still doesn’t know if he’s back?
In related news, the LexCorp viral site has gone down and released a statement after Lex’s involvement in an alien attack on Metropolis and Gotham:
Due to unfortunate circumstances, LexCorp Industries will be temporarily suspending it’s global operations.
When interviewed about his actions against a fallen alien, Lex Luthor responded with; ‘Ding, ding, ding, ding. Are we entering the second round?’
We do not understand Mr. Luthor’s actions and LexCorp does not take responsibility for his actions. Thank you for being patient.

In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
