When it was revealed that Lex Luthor would be making an appearance in Season 4, once all the excitement of the iconic villain passed, the question remained: Who would be playing Lex and how would he be involved in the show. While the actor who would be taking on that role has not yet been announced, Supergirl EP Robert Rovner discussed the arrival of Lex Luthor.
We’re beyond excited to introduce iconic villain, Lex Luthor, to Supergirl and to weave him into our story this season,” Robert Rovner and Jessica Queller said in a statement when the announcement was made. “We’ve talked about having Lex on the show since it’s inception and we’re excited to have him finally arrive. We can’t wait for him to shake things up in National City and watch him go toe to toe with not only Supergirl, but his sister Lena Luthor.
With the mention of Lena (Katie McGrath), Rovner also explained that Lex’s involvement would initially focus on Lena as opposed to being directly involved with the Girl of Steel herself.
It’s a big Lena story this season,” Rovner explained. “[Lex] weaves into the narrative we’re telling. We’re excited about the possibilities of who might step into the iconic role.
Are you excited to see the introduction of Lex Luthor this season and who will eventually be cast in the iconic role? How will Lex get involved and will that road eventually lead to Supergirl? Share your thoughts with us at GVNation.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
