Meet Lex Luthor’s hair from Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice

June 18th, 2014 by Marc Comments

Well, after all the ‘Will Lex be bald in Batman V Superman?’ talk, it looks like the answer is… not at the start of the movie, anyway…

Batman News have the scoop on what Jesse Eisenberg’s Lex will look like: “LexCorp scenes were filmed over the past two days and a source tells Batman News that Eisenberg has “a lot of hair”. It’s not Eisenberg’s typical curly look — it’s a bit longer, kind of loose and wavy, and it’s dirty blonde. Eisenberg’s Luthor has spastic mannerisms, like a 20-something guy that pounds energy drinks all day. I’m told that the scenes shot take place towards the beginning of the movie… so maybe there’s still a chance that Lex Luthor could show up bald by the end? We’ll have to wait and see.”

More info of LexCorp too which apparently is: “f***ing awesome. There’s a basketball court in the lobby with a giant 30 foot neon LexCorp industries sign.”

One final thing, remember a while back there was rumours that Holly Hunter was set to play a Leslie Thompkins-type (here)? Well, apparently she’s actually playing a US Senator.

So, no baldy for Luthor at the start of the movie? How does this sit with you guys?

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. 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….
