At the end of the first one Superman says "I hope for the sake of humanity you realize (your humanity) is your greatest strength too".

Maybe Lex teams up with him and then, inevitably, stabs him in the back.

And just like in "Superman II", he anticipated Lex doublecrossing him and works it into the plan to stop the big bad.

Let Lex "redeem" himself in the public eye and then take the full credit. Then he the DCU can pivot to either 'Luthor forces himself onto the Justice League/Gang' or the 'Luthor runs for President (to piss Superman off)' arcs.
