Lex Luthor (DC Extended Universe)

"We know better now, don't we? Devils don't come from the hell beneath us, they come from the sky."

- Lex Luthor

Alexander Luthor, or Lex Luthor is an antagonist in the upcoming 2016 superhero film Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice. He is a multi-billionaire businessman, as well as the founder! Owner, and CEO of Lexcorp Industries.

He is portrayed by Jesse Eisenberg.

Appearance
Lex is a man of relatively small height for a male of his age, with a slim build, with a confident walk and demeanor. He is completely bald with blue eyes.

Personality
Luthor has an incredibly brilliant mind (not to mention one of the best in the world), though it is hideously corrupted by his horrifically unstable ego. He believes himself as a God among men, and arrogantly expects to be treated as such. Lex is brilliant in both science and business, easily becoming one, if not the most smartest in the room. However, his God persona makes him envious and bitter towards Kal-El (Superman), even going so far as openly describing the latter in diabolical terms.
