If you wondered why a long-haired Jesse Eisenberg played Lex Luthor (usually bald), you got it all wrong. The word has it that Eisenberg is in fact Lex Luthor Jr., son of the mastermind supervillain who started LexCorp.

A fictitious interview with Lex Luthor Jr's character saw him revealing that he had unexpectedly come into his father's life. Luthor praised his father's business acumen for starting the company which became DC world's biggest business chains, Christian Post reports. News of the fictitious interview was tweeted by Eisenberg.

"Dad named the company after himself ten years before I made my unexpected entrance into his life. But investors seemed to respond to the idea of an adoring father building a legacy for his precious son. He used that to his advantage. It was a good shtick and, whatever else he was, he was a good businessman," Luthor Jr. explained in the interview.

In other Batman vs. Superman talk, there are rumors that two more teaser trailers may soon be out.

Latinos Post also posted some spoilers including the raison d'etre for a desert scene. Some believe this could be Bruce Wayne's nightmare of what could happen if Superman went bad. Then there is speculation about Robin having gone bad and that Robin could feature in the movie. Only that it isn't guy but a woman!
