    Tech bros are the current rich villain archetypes because they are in real life and Jesse played one in The Social Network.

    I wouldn’t be surprised if that was a factor in his casting as Luthor.

        His Luthor was fucking terrible, just his generic spastic character.

      This. I thought he was the perfect villain. And it wasn’t until after I was halfway though that I realized it was because he played Zuch. L

      Basically the same character, and he’s perfect at it.
