Rereading the thread I can see you're right. I must've misread something.
Understandable but yeah its sucks, but I am already happy we gonna get Tom.

Absolutely not. I wouldn't let ANY job come before family.
If I do have an issue with Rosenbaum (whose version of Lex I still consider the best), its the "if you want me, you better make with the Benjamins" attitude he's copped for years every other time anybody broached the subject of reprising Lex.
The man did a great job for 6 years, and deserves whatever they wanna pay him to come back, but that whole mercenary mind-set and air of entitlement is a bad look for anybody.

But hey, if in his little world of pod-casts and failed cable TV series he wants to believe he's Sinatra, more power to him.
Dude, you're like a month older than Rosenbaum and you're on a toy forum holding grudges about the finale of a show that ended 8-plus years ago, maybe you should hold off on the cheap shots regarding how other people live their lives. The fact that they just appear to be asking any random actor who was a part of a DC franchise at one point to be in this crossover should tell you the CW probably doesn't have a clue as to how this story's going to pan out.

I guess it makes sense. There are so many people in this thing, no way they'd have enough budget to cover a sizable paycheck for everyone. Makes you wonder if the people that are showing up just want the chance to play the role, like Conroy, or maybe just need a bit of publicity, like Welling.
As much as we as fans would want to just jump in for fun. This is a professional actor who has a career, and this is his way of making a living. I dont blame the dude at all.
Yeah, its unfortunate that he won't be in Crisis, but I understand why he would pass.
