How James Gunn's DC Universe Might Layer New Layers on Superman and Lex Luthor's Rivalry
Both physically and philosophically, the DC Universe could at last show Lex Luthor walking exactly alongside Superman. Consider Lexosuit action, maybe including some superpowers mixed in. Given the possibility for a multi-year arc, the competition between Superman and Lex could define the new franchise going forward.
Might Lex Luthor even take front stage as the DC Universe's main enemy? The Superman movie could readily set the stage for Lex's bigger part in next Movies and TV shows. Although we will have to wait for the first Superman teaser to better understand Lex's part, it's interesting to consider what kind of influence he will have on the DCU.
