The DC homepage has this article up explaining a little bit about the kind of Luthor we'll see on the show. It's good to hear that Cryer has always been a Superman fan ever since he was little. He also talks a little about his role as Lenny in Superman 4. Interestingly, the episode's title is "The Quest for Peace".
