Zack Snyder's superhero film Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice releases one year from today, and in celebration of that, we now have our first look at Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor.

Entertainment Weekly has the exclusive photo, which you can check out here.

"He's not any of the Lexes that you've seen, that's for sure, other than him being a captain of industry and one person to the world and another person to himself," Snyder tells the site. "And bald, of course."

"Our Lex is disarming and he's not fake," Snyder continues. "He says what he believes and he says what's on his mind. If you can unravel the string and decipher what he means, it's all there."

In other news, Jason Momoa will portray Aquaman in Snyder's Justice League, but we've already seen the character thanks to Snyder's releasing a photo on his Twitter account. In a new interview, Momoa talks about bringing the King of Atlantis to life on the big screen.

"The whole mythology of Aquaman is pretty amazing," he told Entertainment Weekly. "There’s so many things to tell, and there’s a whole backstory that’s just amazing. There’s a lot of surprises coming. I think, yeah, he’s been cast aside. But, um [laughs] times are going to change now, buddy. Conan was really hard, because you have 15 different types of fans and so many things to respect and honor. To do it right it’s got to be bloody-bloody-bloody-bloody-bloody, and not a lot of people go see that anymore. It’s not the ’80s anymore. It’s a really hard format. We busted ass, but there were a lot of cooks in the kitchen on that one. What’s great about this is Zack, man. We don’t want to just reinvent it, but he’s a got a whole idea of what Aquaman should be and I’m really honored to be playing it. I’m excited for the world to see it."

Momoa also discussed if he thinks Aquaman's presence was there in Man of Steel. "Well, you know, I think that’s left for the genius of Snyder to kind of reveal that," he said. "There’s definitely a plan in this whole universe that he’s designing, and it’s amazing to be a part of it. I think everything that you see that is building, there’s a purpose behind the whole plan. So I wouldn’t want to take anything away from Zack, because he loves revealing all those things. And… you never know, man."

What do you make of Momoa's remarks? Let us know in the comments section.
