Arrowverse actor Jon Cryer opens up about why he won't be returning as Lex in SupermanAndLois season 3. 'Most of the time, actors learn about this stuff when it comes out in the trades. I’m grateful [DC] were classy about it.'
Despite carrying the role for nearly five years, Arrowverse's Lex Luthor actor Jon Cryer explains why he won't be returning for Superman & Lois season 3. The Two and a Half Men alum made his Arrowverse debut as the iconic DC villain in Supergirl season 4, initially imprisoned after several fights with Tyler Hoechlin's Superman, but eventually escapes after Supergirl and Superman foil his plans to assassinate his half-sister, Lena.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY As time draws near for the show's return, fans took to Twitter to discuss a recent report claiming that Lex Luthor would be coming to Superman & Lois season 3, expressing their hopes to see Arrowverse's Jon Cryer return to the part. The Supergirl actor instead revealed that he wouldn't be reprising his role as the iconic DC villain, citing both a scheduling conflict and a change in creative direction for the character.
Even if he doesn't appear tied to the Intergang, the general length of Superman & Lois seasons show a necessity for multiple villains, making the argument for Lex to appear in a guest appearance at the very least, if just to set up his future in the show.
Other Actors Who Would Make Great Luthors While Cryer may have scored widespread praise from Arrowverse fans during his run in the franchise, there are a number of other actors, both familiar with the role and who have yet to get their hands on the character, who could take up the Lex Luthor mantle for Superman & Lois season 3.
