Recently, Total Film sat down with Rio 2 star Anne Hathaway (Who co-stars with Jesse Eisenberg) and talked about his role as the brand new Lex Luthor. Many fans were extremely upset when Zack Snyder announced that the new Lex Luthor who is usually depicted as a macho businessman was cast to Jesse Eisenberg. Since the announcement some not all fans have warmed up to the idea thinking that this Lex Luthor will be a much more dark version of The Social Network character Mark Zuckaberg. Now Hathaway has come out to give some pointers to the young movie star given she had some major backlash being cast as Selina Kyle in The Dark Knight Rises....which she turned out to be the best part if the entire movie:
“I wish I could say something, but it’s going to be his experience. Keep a journal, which I’m sure he does some version of that already, just to remember it. Don’t be afraid to make it your own. In my case, people criticized, criticized, criticized until they saw it, and then a lot of people liked what I did. Don’t listen to anyone, do your thing. They cast you for a reason. I think he’ll be remarkable, I’m excited to see it.”
