The decision to cast Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor in Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice didn’t go down well with many DC Comics fans.
And it turns out The Social Network star was originally offered a completely different role in the film.
Director Zack Snyder has admitted he had another part in mind for the actor, although he won’t reveal which character it was.
‘Let’s call it a secret, but nevertheless it was the exact opposite of Lex Luthor,’ told the Los Angeles Times.
