Brown also chimed in about the attention on Lex Luthor and wrote "So many opinions flying around about #LexLuthor. Looks like #Lex figured out how to infiltrate #twitter right under the alien's nose."

Zack Snyder's Lex Luthor, wonderfully portrayed by Jesse Eisenberg, really pleasantly surprised me after I used to think he was mostly a one note character. He's fantastic and nuanced!#RestoreTheSnyderverse#LexLuthor pic.twitter.com/37uTbUk79v — SuperDrew #SnyderCut (@drewxhoward) March 23, 2021 I see Lex Luthor is trending and the best #LexLuthor is and always will be Jon Cryer.
