Rumor: Bryan Cranston Cast As Luthor in Batman vs Superman

News of more additions to the Batman vs Superman cast just keep rolling along this week. Hot off of the announcement that Ben Affleck would be playing the Caped Crusader, it appears that the villain hinted at multiple times in Man of Steel is to be played by none other than The Man Who Knocks.

Bryan Cranston, most widely known for his role as Walter White on Breaking Bad is set up to play Superman's nemesis, Lex Luthor, in the upcoming Man of Steel sequel. And Cranston isn't just signing up for Batman vs Superman as reports speculate his deal could be for at least six films and up to as many as ten if Warner Brothers if the sequels prove as successful as the studio hopes they can be. The announcement that Cranston would be stepping in as a baddie on the film came as a pleasant surprise as he had expressed interest in the role a few weeks ago, but it was just written off as an actor having some fun with the press.

Kind of funny that Ben Affleck is Batman now isn't it? All we need is John Goodman and Alan Arkin and we could possibly have an Argo reunion.
