Zack Snyder also told Entertainment Weekly that Eisenberg’s Lex Luthor will be different from other actors that have portrayed the character in previous Superman films.
“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.”
