Entertainment Weekly has your first look at Jesse Eisenberg 's bald, Lex Luthor in director Zack Snyder's Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. According to Snyder, expect to see a Lex Luthor like none before. "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 arrives in theaters on March 25, 2016.

If you look in his eyes you can tell he's looking at someone...

or something...

alibaba3317 - 3/25/2015, 7:49 AM

JDUKE25 - 3/25/2015, 7:49 AM

Awesome sauce

Pedrito - 3/25/2015, 7:49 AM

Looks like a meth addict.
If that's what they're going for, nice work.

Pasto - 3/25/2015, 7:50 AM

Oh crap, trolls are going into overdrive to find something wrong with this pic

Pasto - 3/25/2015, 7:50 AM

Thirst is real

ALegendaryPanda - 3/25/2015, 7:51 AM

To be honest he looks [frick]ing awesome! I can't wait to see his performance!

Pasto - 3/25/2015, 7:52 AM

Pasto - 3/25/2015, 7:53 AM

Is it just me or does it look like he's wearing some type of prison jumpsuit?

galaxyinferno - 3/25/2015, 7:53 AM

Meh it looks cool and all but can we at least get a teaser during ant man?

supes123 - 3/25/2015, 7:53 AM

@Pasto

Is he wearing prison garments

FirstAvenger - 3/25/2015, 7:54 AM

A year from now BvS released worldwide. Was hoping they'd release something! I like it!

Pasto - 3/25/2015, 7:54 AM

@supes123
Thats what it looks like to me.

@MexicanSuperman
I believe so. It's got the EW logo and all.

FirstAvenger - 3/25/2015, 7:55 AM

*releases*

JDUKE25 - 3/25/2015, 7:56 AM

He looks fine bald, I just hope he stands up straight in this one.... He's always hunched over.

supes123 - 3/25/2015, 7:58 AM

@Pasto

you think this pic kinda confirms that he might be in suicide squad after all?

he looks pretty intimidating, i can def see Luthor

spidey1994 - 3/25/2015, 8:00 AM

Woah. Now let's just hope he can act like Lex.

Pasto - 3/25/2015, 8:00 AM

@supes123
Too early to tell, but possibly. From the looks of the photo you can tell he's looking at someone or something, and he has some type of prison uniform on.

So MAYBE (this is just me spitballing here) BvS ends with him in prison and he's being questioned by Waller.

ALegendaryPanda - 3/25/2015, 8:00 AM

Look at those eyes though! He's staring straight into my soul!

Sxcory - 3/25/2015, 8:01 AM

Looks good.

kong - 3/25/2015, 8:01 AM

HOLY SHIT!!!!

thalidomide - 3/25/2015, 8:01 AM

Not bad at all.

LeeroyJenkins - 3/25/2015, 8:02 AM

BlackPhillip - 3/25/2015, 8:02 AM

I wish Kevin Spacey would have gotten the role again. He's fricking awesome in House of Cards.

DiggedyDave - 3/25/2015, 8:03 AM

As long as he's not about a Real Estate scheme.. I'm all for it!

maximus - 3/25/2015, 8:03 AM

He does look sick

FirstAvenger - 3/25/2015, 8:04 AM

The look. Check. Acting. Check. He just needs a less "whiny" voice.

MartiBro14 - 3/25/2015, 8:04 AM

HOLY SHIT BALLS

CommanderShepard - 3/25/2015, 8:04 AM

Hell yes!
