[MoS] Jesse Eisenberg cast as Lex Luthor, Jeremy Irons to play Alfred
ʙʟᴀᴄᴋɢᴜᴀʀᴅ ʙᴏʏ
I didn't realize Lex stammered his way through his lines....

……….. what
kikibug13
WHAT
ʙʟᴀᴄᴋɢᴜᴀʀᴅ ʙᴏʏ
Yeah that was pretty much my reaction
ʙʟᴀᴄᴋɢᴜᴀʀᴅ ʙᴏʏ
And my coworkers
kikibug13
I can be okay with Alfred.
kikibug13
But... seriously?
Tad Cooper
Jeremy Irons.
Tad Cooper
God, I am hoping for Badass Alfred with Shotgun moment.

Jeremy Irons can definitely be badass enough, but I'm usually not ATTRACTED TO Alfred, lol. that could happen, now 
Gavitron
You know, I've said it before, and I'll say it again -- as awful as the casting appears to be, that's STILL not the biggest problem facing this film.
ʙʟᴀᴄᴋɢᴜᴀʀᴅ ʙᴏʏ
The thing with Jeremy Irons is... I can only see him as Scar and Rodrigo Borgia, so I'll spend the entire film waiting for him to betray Batfleck.
Robin Season
well, Golden Age Alfred did
Robin Season
then again, he was also a bumbling idiot for comic relief, and supposedly smashed by a boulder, too, so...

Gavitron
: The biggest problem being the director and producer?
Gavitron
And the script, yeah.
Artell
I am rather jazzed about Jeremy Irons and I think Eisenberg could totally work. I think this movie will, at the very least, fail interestingly.
𝔖𝔫𝔦𝔥𝔲𝔯ó𝔫𝔨𝔞
I'm...fine w/this casting.
𝔖𝔫𝔦𝔥𝔲𝔯ó𝔫𝔨𝔞
People questioned Michael Rosenbaum too, and look howe well that turned out.
𝔖𝔫𝔦𝔥𝔲𝔯ó𝔫𝔨𝔞
My only o_O is that should Lex be THAT much younger than Supes.
kikibug13
... except the actors are the exact same age.
kikibug13
Both born in 1983.
kikibug13
(Henry on May 5, Jesse on October 5)
𝔖𝔫𝔦𝔥𝔲𝔯ó𝔫𝔨𝔞
....REALLY?
𝔖𝔫𝔦𝔥𝔲𝔯ó𝔫𝔨𝔞
Wow, Henry Cavill looks WAY older than me
Pipkin
Jesus, Cavill is younger than I am?
kikibug13
y e p
kikibug13
well, at least according to google.
Pipkin
(granted, I'm still shocked that Hiddleston is only a year older than me, so, I'm bad at ages)
𝔖𝔫𝔦𝔥𝔲𝔯ó𝔫𝔨𝔞
that's...weird
𝔖𝔫𝔦𝔥𝔲𝔯ó𝔫𝔨𝔞
henry cavill does NOT look younger than me. Or the same age as jesse eisenberg lol
𝔖𝔫𝔦𝔥𝔲𝔯ó𝔫𝔨𝔞
/eyes him with suspicion
kikibug13
(Hiddleston is exactly two weeks younger than me.)
kikibug13
Cavill doesn't look that age in MoS. In other movies, he's looked... a lot younger.
𝔖𝔫𝔦𝔥𝔲𝔯ó𝔫𝔨𝔞
I'm still okay with Jesse Eisenberg I think, but I might not have been if I had not see Now You See Me.
Pipkin
^ this, exactly
𝔖𝔫𝔦𝔥𝔲𝔯ó𝔫𝔨𝔞
I'm betting that movie's what got him cast, tbh.
ʟɨօռ ɦɛǟʀƭɛɖ
Eisenberg is pretty fucking boss in that movie, yes. I loved it /Ruffalo fangirl though oops
𝔖𝔫𝔦𝔥𝔲𝔯ó𝔫𝔨𝔞
yesss.
𝔖𝔫𝔦𝔥𝔲𝔯ó𝔫𝔨𝔞
the only part that makes me go "eh" is that I hope this doesn't delay the now you see me sequel >_>
ʟɨօռ ɦɛǟʀƭɛɖ
also
Robin Season
I agree on that weirdness because Jeremy Irons can be very yummy
ʟɨօռ ɦɛǟʀƭɛɖ
𝔖𝔫𝔦𝔥𝔲𝔯ó𝔫𝔨𝔞
: nfsjdknjkfsdnjk I did not know they were doing a sequel oh holy fucking yes 
Robin Season
his VOICE.... it makes watching Lion King sort of uncomfortable 
ʟɨօռ ɦɛǟʀƭɛɖ
He's the only thing that makes Beautiful Creatures bearable 'cause hnngh Macon yes, gimmie
𝔖𝔫𝔦𝔥𝔲𝔯ó𝔫𝔨𝔞
indeed they are
ʟɨօռ ɦɛǟʀƭɛɖ
also I am still unnerved by how much Jesse Eisenberg and Hillary Swank look alike... I saw the Now You See Me trailer and I was just like... wow lips o.O;;
ʙʟᴀᴄᴋɢᴜᴀʀᴅ ʙᴏʏ
I can't believe they're the same age
kikibug13
IKR? But yeah, they are.
ʙʟᴀᴄᴋɢᴜᴀʀᴅ ʙᴏʏ
Wow
CJ
Fuck this world
𝔖𝔫𝔦𝔥𝔲𝔯ó𝔫𝔨𝔞
what why
Kitten pillow
I saw this earlier and still not sure about Eisenberg for Lex.... (Seriously I can't stand him Even though LOOOOOVED Now you See Me but not his character)

..huh

The sad thing is, one half of these are on the surface a good casting. I think Jeremy Irons would be a solid choice for Alfred on the surface, but...knowing this crew? A wasted cast.
