The 'Nosferatu' actor ended up landing the role of Lex Luthor, and the actor who landed the title role was glad he did because "a superhero is only as interesting as their villain."

On Kimmel Live!, Superman's Nicholas Hoult and David Corenswet tell guest host Diego Luna about both auditioning to play the lead role.

Although Nicholas Hoult is entering his onscreen villain era, the Superman star was up for the title role as the Man of Steel. Ahead of the July 11 premiere, Hoult and co-star David Corenswet recalled meeting each other when they auditioned “on the same day” to play Clark Kent in the James Gunn-helmed DCU blockbuster.
