After Warner Bros announced that Ben Affleck had been cast to play the role of Batman, it has been revealed that Bryan Cranston will be playing Lex Luthor in the upcoming Superman/Batman sequel to 'Man Of Steel.'

The 57-year-old actor as Superman's arch nemesis is drawing more cheers than news that Affleck will play Batman alongside Henry Cavill's Superman, ABC News reported.

It's believed that he has brokered a deal to appear as Luthor in at least six films from Marvel Studios, though official announcement is unlikely to be made until the final season of Cranston's hit AMC show concludes.
