The Man Of Steel Facebook Page has learned that Fringe actor Michael Cerveris is being considered for the role of Lex Luthor. According to the site his role in
Man of Steel would likely just be a cameo if at all, with him being featured as a major villain in the sequel. To add some validity to the story Snyder used Fringe’s Casting Director Michelle Allen on Man of Steel as well as his last film Sucker Punch.
From Movie Newz:
Character actor Michael Cerveris, best known for playing The Observer on the FOX television show ‘Fringe’, can be added to the list of names being considered for the role of Superman’s arch-nemeses Lex Luthor, however, the self-proclaimed “Greatest criminal mind of our time” wont likely appear until the Man of Steel follow-up.
There has been no other news on any other possible casting candidates for the role of Lex Luthor but it looks as if we will see Superman's arch nemesis sometime in this series reboot.
Man Of Steel stars Henry Cavill, Amy Adams, Kevin Costner, Diane Lane, Michael Shannon, Antje Traue, Julia Ormond, Russell Crowe, Laurence Fishburne with Christopher Meloni, Harry Lennix, and will be released on June 14, 2013.
