Michael Rosenbaum, celebrated for his portrayal of Lex Luthor in "Smallville," is set to make a cameo appearance in the highly anticipated film, "Superman," scheduled for release on July 11, 2025. This cameo serves as an homage to his iconic depiction of the character.
James Gunn, the head of DC Comics films, extended an invitation to Rosenbaum to take on a small but enjoyable role in the movie. Rosenbaum disclosed at Fan Expo Dallas that his contribution involves delivering a few lines of dialogue. While he emphasized that it's not a substantial part, it's something he found delightful to do.
Speculation suggests that Rosenbaum might lend his voice to a robot within the Fortress of Solitude, akin to the roles undertaken by Alan Tudyk and Michael Rooker. The new "Superman" film features David Corenswet as Superman and Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor.
