In the DC comics, there exists a version called Apex Lex Luthor, who has a unique combination of human and Martian attributes, making him physically stronger than the usual portrayal of Lex Luthor.

As per The Wrap, in “Superman: Legacy,” an antagonist role is labeled “Apex,” and Gunn has been seeing black actors play the role.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Nicholas Hoult is being considered for the role of Superman, not Lex Luthor, in James Gunn’s ‘Superman: Legacy.’ Emma Mackey, Rachel Brosnahan, Phoebe Dynevor, and Samara Weaving are reported to be in the running for the role of Lois Lane in the same film.
