“Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice” has had some controversial casting choices. People were freaking out over Ben Affleck being cast as Batman and to a certain extent, they still are. Jesse Eisenberg was cast as Lex Luthor and his casting received a similar reaction. But according to Entertainment Weekly, Eisenberg’s Lex Luthor is as evil as they come.
Entertainment Weekly revealed some new details about villain’s plan (spoilers ahead) and it looks like he’s going to sacrifice many lives in the film. It’s noted that Luthor orchestrates a mass murder of some kind that will ignite the conflict between Batman and Superman.
Fans have also suspected that Lex Luthor will be revealed as the one that creates Doomsday and that was also confirmed. According to the article Luthor will use some “krytptonian relics” and part of General Zod to bring Doomsday to life.
EW also released two new covers for the “Batman v Superman” issue. One of which features Ben Affleck as Batman and another that features Henry Cavill as Superman. You can check them both out below.
