How does Supergirl's Jon Cryer feel about SupermanAndLois casting a new Lex Luthor? 👀 'Not gonna lie, sounds like this version of Lex Luthor is going to be very fun to play. I’m jealous. But this guy is going to absolutely crush it.' 😯👏

Jon Cryer, who played Arrowverse's Lex Luthor, reacts to the news of Superman & Lois having recast the role. While being initially conceived as an Arrowverse spinoff, Superman & Lois season 2 revealed its status in the shared universe was quite different. Despite being part of the overall franchise, Superman & Lois actually takes place on a different Earth in the Arrowverse multiverse.

SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY As the Arrowverse drama is still shooting its ongoing seasons, news recently broke that The Walking Dead's Michael Cudlitz has joined Superman & Lois. The star is set to bring to life one of the most iconic Superman villains in the comics, as he will be playing Lex in the new season.

While Superman & Lois has brought in other Arrowverse actors to play new versions of their characters, the series is going in a different direction with Lex. Cryer, who played Lex on Supergirl and in the Arrowverse crossovers, reacts to the casting announcement not long after Cudlitz was tapped for the gig. While jealous about the new take on Lex, Cryer has nothing but praise for Cudlitz being cast as the latest live-action version of the DC foe.

It's unclear right now if this version of Lex knows that Clark Kent is Superman and how deep their history is at this point. It also remains to be seen if Superman & Lois' Lex has a similar family history, including whether his parents are still alive or if Lena Luthor even exists in this world. Another question worth raising is whether Lex will be the main villain of Superman & Lois season 3.

Everything We Know About Superman & Lois Season 3 According to The CW, Superman & Lois season 3 picks up only a few weeks after the events of the season 2 finale. Lois and Clark will be working together at the Smallville Gazette alongside Chrissy, who learned the former's secret in the finale. Jordan Kent will be experiencing the challenges of keeping a dual identity, as it is easier said than done to be a superhero and live a normal life.
