nathan t esser for LUCIUS FOX
Lucius Fox is Bruce Wayne’s friend and business manager, who handles the day-to-day work required to keep Wayne Enterprises running efficiently. He is an entrepreneur, inventor, and a businessman with many years of experience. Fox is quite genial, somebody Bruce finds easy to work with, as they tend to agree on priorities. His sense of humor is soft and subtle. Lucius can enjoy a joke, but isn’t usually the one who makes them.
He takes his position seriously, and has been known to admonish Bruce when he’s distracted at an important moment. He is a reliable colleague, a professional who is rarely caught without a well thought out plan or deal. He is a self-made man and he has made sure never to forget where he came from. He has a wife named Tanya, and five children, Tamara, Lucas, Joseph, Timothy, and Tiffany.
Voice should be medium low-to-low, aged early 50s.
[to a crowd] Your attention, please. Esteemed members of the press, good afternoon. I thank you all for coming out here today. It gives me great honor to introduce the man who’s running this show. Please give a big hand to Bruce Wayne.
[sigh] Bruce, your father was a great humanitarian - a great man in general. If you ask me, he did more for this city than anyone, but… He wasn’t merely a doctor. He was also a shrewd businessman. He knew that times were always changing and if you were going to survive, you had to be able to deal with that. He wouldn’t give a permanent handout to people who couldn’t evolve and adapt… I know this must be a lot to take in. It’s never easy realizing your parents weren’t perfect.
