The last time TV viewers watched Lex Luthor getting diabolical on the small screen it was for Supergirls series finale with Jon Cryer portraying the iconic DC villain. Prior to the criminal mastermind was seen as a child via flashback in Titans second season with Payne Novak in the role.
Now the action packed HBO Max series has confirmed it's bringing the full-on adult version of Lex in Season 4 with the always stellar Sons of Anarchy vet and Bosch star Titus Welliver bringing this undoubtedly unique version to life.Whats more we already know what Wellivers Lex Luthor will look like as he has front and center or more to the left I guess in the first big Season 4 reveal that Titans has delivered. Check out the Twitter post below.
There are obviously a few takeaways that we can glean from this first peek at Titus Wellivers Lex Luthor. First he has rocking the expected bald head so often associated with the villain and its almost shocking to see the actor without anything up top. But then we get to that scruffy AF beard which is quite an evolution from the tightly coifed stache and goatee combo that Cryer donned in the Arrowverse. In fact it may be the most facial hair that the character has rocked in any medium outside of comic books. Its an interestingly disheveled look for the smartest man in the world and is not wholly distant from Jonathan Crane’s approach to facial hair in Season 3.
