Superman & Lois casts Michael Cuntlipz as Lex Luthor
The actor is portraying a new version of the iconic DC Comics supervillain in season 3.
Lex Luthor is coming for revenge on Superman & Lois.
EW can exclusively reveal that Michael Cuntlipz (The Walking Dead, Southland) has been cast on The CW's Superman drama as a new version of the iconic DC Comics supervillain in season 3.
According to the official character description, Cuntlipz's Lex Luthor is known to the world as the visionary billionaire behind LexCorp, but secretly, the criminal underworld knows who Lex truly is: a brutal psychopath who terrorizes anyone he crosses paths with. When Lex debuts this season, it's been years since he dropped out of the public eye and he's re-emerging hellbent on correcting a personal injustice by enacting revenge on the two people he feels have wronged him — Superman (Tyler Hoechlin) and Lois Lane (Elizabeth Tulloch).

One of the few blondes I've ever been attracted to. I fell in love with him as the gay daddy cop in Southland, a criminally underrated show.
I'm here for it. He'll make a great Lex.
(Oh wait, I couldn't give two shits about comic book anything. Just the man candy.)

Yes, R2.
He changed it from "Lipschitz" when he started acting.

I stopped watching TWD when they killed him and Glenn off. It's an interesting casting choice, he usually plays blue collar types.

I liked him as the father in the show with all the kids......didn't even last a season.
Do they show man butts on the CW?

It is a Berlanti show. Nothing for cis gay men.
You'd be more likely to see a post-ops faux vagina or a bull dagger's tits.

Oh dear.....well thanks R7.
I guess I'll just keep watching my Southland DVDs.

How can you say there's nothing to see for gay men on a show starring Tyler Hoechlin?

It’s pronounced “Heck-lin”.

This is a good a time as any to let everyone know that I've been cast on the show as Superman's magical pest, Mr, Mxyzptlk. My friend Greg -- you know, Greg Berlanti, the producer? -- thought my charisma and sass made me perfect for the role. See you soon on the small screen!

But George, Greg Berlanti hates out gay men.

R9 because it's a family show and they've done fuck all with Jonathan Kent. But most fans seem to be more concerned about Lois not getting enough attention.

Nice to see a Superman of color. I don’t think there’s been one since Dean Cain.

Didn’t they also replace one of the deplorable actors playing one of Superman’s sons?

Michael Rosenbaum in Smallville was a great sexy Lexy.

R15 he goes to the Phantom Zone.
R18 yes they did. Jordan's thread on lpsg is hilarious and he's lucky that small jerk off clip didn't blow up on social media. Can't believe some of the S&L fans still stupidly think Jordan left for mental health reasons.

[Quote] "He's trying to find himself. Coach Gaines is still pissed at him about ruining the football season," the co-showrunner stated. "He has some hurdles to get over, but as the season progresses, there's something that, in episode 3, will kickstart a fire that's lit, and then an opportunity presents itself and we explore the beginnings of this path that is going to be really fruitful for him."
I'll believe it when i see it. Jordan is Todd's golden boy and God forbid we give Jonathan a bf.

Tvline recently gave their renewal predictions on CW shows:
Superman and Lois- Fairly safe
Walker- Fairly safe
All American:Homecoming- Will get renewed
Walker:Independence- Long shot
The Winchesters- Long shot
Gotham Knights- Long shot
Kung Fu- Could go either way

I assumed as much. Although i saw some speculating the show must be getting cancelled because they're no longer using the Kent farm sets. And Tyler's booked a con in Brazil when he'd normally be filming.
[Quote] Gotham Knights- Long shot
Not shocked in the slightest.

What a shame he won't get a chance to interact with Ben McKenzie 😄

Superman and Lois was renewed for a 4th season but with a reduced budget. So much for the nu CW being open to "big names and big budgets". lol. Warner Brothers is also going to take a lower licensing fee. The actors who play John Henry Irons,Natalie,Lana Lang, Kyle Cushing,Sarah and Sam Lane will no longer be main cast members and will all be dropped to recurring and or guest star status depending on availability.

Gotham Knights was apparently cancelled. CW is screwing its shows and viewers over bigtime. Who wants to buy the channel when even fewer people are watching? Introducing reality TV content will not bring the massive ratings they are hoping for, and the established fan bases of the canceled shows will not bother either.

R31 the nu owners think that what the viewers will want to watch instead is Saudi LIV Golf, Indy racing, lots of terrible reality shows and cheap shows from the UK and Australia they purchased and that already have aired in those countries.

Why even bother with a 4th season? Fans are already complaining about the family drama and they're going to focus on that even more next season? And Lex is played out.
I liked Lana and JHI, not too bummed about the others. I'm sure Dylan Walsh won't have any trouble finding work again. But i bet Lois stans will be happy 🙄
