Jesse Eisenberg Interview: The ‘social network’ lead says he will portray a ”complicated” Lex Luther in ‘Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice’.

30 year-old actor Eisenberg has been cast in the role of the main villain in the eagerly-awaited new flick, which will see Batman – played by Ben Affleck – and Superman – played by Henry Cavill – appear onscreen together in a live-action movie for the first time.

Speaking about his role to Total Film, ‘The Social Network’ star said: ”There are some indications of how the character should behave based on the script, and then an actor makes it his or her own.”

He added: ”I got to know one of the writers Chris Terrio, and we were able to discuss things at length and figure out who this person is to create a real psychology behind what is, perhaps, in a comic book, a less than totally modern psychology.

”I can only say I’ve been asked to play an interesting role. A complicated, challenging person.”

Last month, Eisenberg revealed that he lived on a farm to prepare for his ‘Night Moves’.

The star plays one of three radical environmentalists, all of whom attempt to destroy a hydroelectric dam as an act of protest.

He told the Metro: ”I went up and lived on a farm and stayed with people who are environmentally active. Nobody that blew up a dam or anything that severe, but people who were sympathetic.”
