According to several internet reports, Emmy Award winning actor Bryan Cranston ("Breaking Bad") has been officially cast as 'Lex Luthor' in director Zack Snyder's developing "Man Of Steel" sequel, with the working title "Batman Vs Superman". Cranston was reportedly signed to appear in at least six DC superhero movies, as Superman's arch-nemesis, throughout a developing series of "DC Universe" films, including "Justice League".

why i hate this: once i get used to seeing someone as character I don't want to see them as another character. Unless they have range(see depp). It's not going to be superman, batman and lex. It's going to be superman, ben affleck, and walter white.


are they fucking trolling?

shaping up to be horrible series... While I can enjoy ben affleck in movies honestly he'd be better as superman as Ben Affleck has a lack of character as does superman

Dude everyone wanted Bryan Cranston for Lex Luthor. Second choice would have probably been this guy

This thread is about Bryan Cranston being cast and you guys are talking about Ben AFfleck...Let it go already, he's going to be Batman...Give the dude a chance. I was skeptical at first but damn dude you haven't even seen him put the suit on and you people are already bashing him. If you think you can pick the perfect person to play Batman go work at Warner Bros.

Bryan can nail anything! I like the choice.

Actually I didn't comment in the thread about Ben Affleck or on any other thread either that I remember (I drink a lot at night)

Just overall seeing the way this is shaping up I have concerns. I still like MIchael Keaton the best as Batman, and I'm not familar with breaking bad. So I'm indifferent to the actor playing him, but if it is the actor I think it is I don't think its a bad move, but maybe a little old for the character. While I have confidence in the director the casting seems subpar at best currently.
