In a recent interview, James Gunn discussed Lex Luthor's ongoing role in the DCU, confirming that the relationship between Rick Flag and Lex Luthor, as seen in Peacemaker season two, will continue into the 2027 film Man of Tomorrow[1]. The article theorizes that Flag will require Luthor's scientific expertise to combat an alien threat, possibly Brainiac, and may even offer a pardon in exchange for his help[1]. This storyline could potentially lead to Luthor being hailed as a hero and running for U.S. President, mirroring events from the Superman comics around 2000[1]. The article suggests that Gunn might adapt this comic book arc, which saw Luthor's presidency end with Superman and Batman exposing his continued criminal activities[1].
