In spdrmnkyxxiii's design, Hoult gets pitched as donning Lex's iconic Lexosuit that has been featured in numerous DC live-action and animated properties over the years. One of the live-action Superman-related TV shows to feature the actual Lexosuit was Supergirl, with Jon Cryer's Lex and multiple other characters using it throughout the seasons.
Meanwhile, Bosslogic shared a design of Hoult's Lex in his traditional business suit, as he is seen standing in front of the Lexcorp logo. While it has to be confirmed or denied, Bill and Alexander Skarsgård were reportedly also being eyed for Lex in Superman: Legacy.
