Bryan Cranston Interested In Playing Lex Luthor In SUPERMAN/BATMAN Movie
Rumored to be a top choice for the role in Warner Bros.' hotly anticipated Superman/Batman team-up film, Breaking Bad star Bryan Cranston briefly comments on his interest in playing the villainous Lex Luthor.
Last week, the first casting rumors surfaced for the role of Lex Luthor in Warner Bros.' Batman/Superman movie. While it hasn't been confirmed that the character will feature in the Man Of Steel follow-up, it seems likely considering that he was heavily referenced in the first movie. Breaking Bad's Bryan Cranston was linked to the role at first, while Green Lantern's Mark Strong hinted that he was at least in the running. Now, Cranston briefly shares his interest in portraying Luthor while speaking with Metro. "Give me a call. I like Lex Luthor. I think he’s misunderstood. He’s a loveable, sweet man." Do you want to see him as the next Lex Luthor? If not, then who?
Set to begin filming early next year (reportedly in Toronto) for a Summer 2015 release, Warner Bros.' untitled Batman/Superman movie currently stars Henry Cavill, Amy Adams, Laurence Fishburne and Diane Lane. The new Bruce Wayne/Batman has yet to be cast. Zack Snyder is directing from a script written by David S. Goyer.
