Respect to WB! They are doing their level best to eradicate as much of the Snyder/BvS stench from Justice League as they possibly can.   |

Good. It's probably gonna be a while before we see Lex Luthor again. Something tells me that they'll recast him in the future.

We won't see him again. If he doesn't have the power to make a circle of garbage in the sky or shoot lightning out his butt, then the DCEU doesn't want him as a villain.

Surely the character himself isn't completely done, just Eisenberg, right?

Didn't they say Lex Sr. died in BvS or in some kinda tie-in material? |

I read somewhere that he was going to be broken out of prison by Deathstroke. That sounds like it'd probably be a good action scene. But anyway, then Lex Luthor was supposed to form an alliance with Steppenwolf. Given his sloppy characterization, it'd be probably just for the evuls. |

There is a suspicion now that WB have a million different cuts again, just like they had with Suicide Squad. Lex is probably in some of those cuts. It sounds as though whatever passes as the final cut will be the result of a committee decision based on the reaction of test audiences. Way to go WB! Another fine example of quality movie making at it's best!  |

No big loss there. There are WAY too many Superman villains like Braniac, Darkseid, The Eradicator, Zod, Atomic Skull, Imperex, Cyborg Superman, Parasite, Bizarro, Mongul, Chemo, Maxima etc who haven't been seen in movies and it is about time they are given a chance instead of constantly using Lex Luthor over and over again.

It's really weird how hesitant they've been to use different villains in Superman movies. I'm surprised given how ott the finale in MoS was that they didn't just have Zod's army include a rogue's gallery of different foes that Krypton locked up in the Phantom Zone. |

There are also rumors saying that Iris West has been cut from the film, so its possible that Lex Luther being cut (assuming it's true) may simply have been for time, especially in light of the reshoots.

I was actually looking forward to seeing what Lex had to offer in this one and if he was actually Lex Luthor this time not some riddler/joker hybrid. |
