Superman is ultimately a Christ/Bodhisattva figure. He is more than willing to fight and even kill to keep the peace (should it be the reasonable/responsible option), but his mission is to protect and save the lives of all peoples, no matter how far they have strayed from God or the Middle Path. And that includes Lex. Luthor may have blood on his hands and has brought about great instability and suffering to the world, but that does not mean he is incapable of self-transformation, repentance, and redemption. If anything, it means Superman SHOULD help Lex find his way back to the path of good considering all the brilliant things he CAN do for others. Lex should only be killed if Lex becomes such a big threat that his continued existence would permanently throw the social harmony into total ruin.

There is a saying among Buddhists: it is right to show mercy, compassion, and love to all, but that does not mean you sleep next to a rabid dog or let it roam freely. Forgiveness is something that must be earned, not freely given or expected.

If you check the Coronswet Superman movie on fan sites (for fan art, fan fic, fan theories), more people are shipping HoultLex with Coronsupes than anything else - after that it's self-inserts with David, even though he's happily married, or with Clark, even though he's clearly happy with movie Lois.

Also, Hoult is charismatic and attractive enough, in the same way Rosenbaum was on Smallville. Jon Cryer Lex or Kevin Spacey Lex would never get that option. Hackman Lex would only get it for the LOLZ.

They should bite the bullet and just make the homoerotic subtext between Lex and Clark into text, or turn Lex into a woman. I think a rule 63 Lex Luthor would be ridiculously popular with women.
