It’s a banner week for viral marketing campaigns. Following the release of the Jaws 19 trailer to celebrate the 30 Anniversary of Back To The Future, Warner Bros. has unveiled a viral marketing campaign of their own to promote the upcoming release of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. Their latest push takes the form of an exclusive interview between Fortune Magazine and Lex Luthor (Jesse Eisenberg). Based on what we saw in the last trailer, Eisenberg won’t be anything like the quiet Mark Zuckerberg we saw in The Social Network, instead he looks to be more ruthless and cunning, but still having that cool-guy vibe. If anything the latest profile piece will give us some insight as to what kind of Lex Luthor we will see in the film. Check it out below.

| Kenan & Kel Reunite For ‘Good Burger’ Sketch With Jimmy Fallon
If you were young in the ’90s and watched Nickelodeon, you’re surely familiar with Kenan & Kel. The show starred Kenan Thompson and Kel Mitchell, and ran from 1996 to 2000. Since then Thompson has gone on to a successful run on Saturday Night Live, while Mitchell has continued acting albeit in lesser known projects. Mitchell also auditioned for SNL, but it didn’t work out for him. There have been reports of the pair not staying in touch in the years since their show ended, but last night they reunited on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon for a sketch that re-created the duo’s 1997 movie Good Burger, which was inspired by a sketch they did on another Nickelodeon show, All That. You can check out the Kenan & Kel reunion below, as well as a behind the scenes video and one of their sketches from the ’90s.
