Jesse Eisenberg says he will portray a ''complicated'' Lex Luther in 'Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice'.
Eisenberg has been cast in the role of the main villain in the eagerly-awaited new flick, which will see Batman - played by Ben Affleck - and Superman - played by Henry Cavill - appear onscreen together in a live-action movie for the first time.
Speaking about his role to Total Film, 'The Social Network' star said: ''There are some indications of how the character should behave based on the script, and then an actor makes it his or her own.''
He added: ''I got to know one of the writers Chris Terrio, and we were able to discuss things at length and figure out who this person is to create a real psychology behind what is, perhaps, in a comic book, a less than totally modern psychology.
''I can only say I've been asked to play an interesting role. A complicated, challenging person.''
Last month, Eisenberg revealed that he lived on a farm to prepare for his 'Night Moves'.
The 30-year-old plays one of three radical environmentalists, all of whom attempt to destroy a hydroelectric dam as an act of protest.
He told the Metro newspaper: ''I went up and lived on a farm and stayed with people who are environmentally active. Nobody that blew up a dam or anything that severe, but people who were sympathetic.''
Nobody is impressed by Demi "coming to the rescue".
