Summary

Nicholas Hoult's Lex Luthor is confirmed as the main villain in 2025's Superman film.
The announcement was made by James Gunn after rumors emerged regarding another villain.
Hoult may bring a new twist to Lex by possibly playing Apex Lex Luthor.

The main villain for the upcoming Superman film has been revealed. Like the DCEU before it, the new DC Universe will start with a movie for the Man of Steel. David Corenswet's Superman will take to the skies alongside multiple other DCU heroes in 2025's Superman. The film is directed by DCU creative head James Gunn, and he has just revealed the answer to a major question about the movie.
On Threads, James Gunn confirmed that Nicholas Hoult's Lex Luthor is Superman's main villain.

While Lex Luthor has served as the villain of several Superman projects since the character's live-action debut, there had been no updates about the DCU Superman's main villain until now. Rumors claimed that characters like Brainiac, Mongul, Ultraman, and more would be the film's main villain, with Lex in a supporting role. However, the classic duel between Superman and Lex Luthor will once again be the main force behind the DCU's Superman.
