In Part 2 of my conversation with John Shea, we talk about unforgettable moments from Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman — including facing a cobra as Lex Luthor, working with Teri Hatcher during a memorable rat-filled scene, and returning to the show with a very different look. Plus, John reflects on his time in the Marvel series Mutant X.

Before superhero cinematic universes took over Hollywood, there was Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman— and one of the most memorable Lex Luthors ever.

In Episode 517 – Part 1, we talk about:

• His inspiration for playing Lex Luthor
• How he got his start in acting
• Auditioning for Indiana Jones alongside Karen Allen (great story!)
