Obviously, there are some conclusions we can draw from this first look at Titus Welliver’s Lex Luthor. First, he sports the expected bald head so often associated with the villain, and it’s almost shocking to see the actor with nothing on. But then we come to that scruffy AF beard, which is a huge evolution of the well-groomed mustache and goatee combo that Cryer wore in the Arrowverse. In fact, it could be the most facial hair the character has ever had in any medium outside of comics. It’s a curiously scruffy look for the smartest man in the world, and it’s not far off Jonathan Crane’s approach to facial hair in Season 3.
Either way, the third conclusion here is that it will apparently come titans‘History not yet in the form of a supervillain. Otherwise, Anna Diop’s Starfire would probably be a little angrier or upset when he stands in front of Lex, instead of smiling with folded hands. It looks like he is asking him something, which may be related to the hero’s fight of the fourth season new villain Brother Blood portrayed by Joseph Morgan.
Talk with uh , titansCo-creator and showrunner Greg Walker shared some background information on this Lex Luthor, saying:
He has a very sensitive and caring approach to evil and power. You know what he’s done, what he’s capable of, except like a lot of these people, he’s kind. You don’t have a cat on your lap. Yeah, he’s funny, which I think is very interesting for his character. She wants to know more about people, what motivates them and how they are different from him. He sees the world through the prism of his own power and his own inadequacy and tries to compensate for both.
Greg Walker also talked about that great season for Joshua Urpin’s Conner, who discovered that Superboy’s origin story revolves around a clone created from the DNA of Superman and Lex Luthor. Fans can therefore expect Titus Welliver’s arrival to tie directly to Conner’s story, though such a big villain probably won’t be limited to just one storyline.
About Welliver, who has made a career out of playing memorable characters in testosterone-fueled shows like Sons of anarchy, old thing, New York blue fontYes The last boat, to name a few. He has spent most of the last decade playing Harry Bosch for Amazon’s Prime Video drama based on the novels of Michael Connelly, and while he has appeared in Marvel Verse through protection officers and the Star Wars– way the Mandalorianthe actor apparently Really love titans.
Walker explained that while he thought he had to get Welliver to join him as Lex Luthor, the Lost The vet apparently picked up the conversation, talking about both his fanaticism for comics and his specific love for the titans series, to the point where he detailed specific shots and scenes during their conversation. Let’s hope the love shines through in her performance because she has huge and extremely expensive shoes to fill.
