It’s already been confirmed that Joe Manganiello will be playing Deathstroke in the DCEU, and it’s also been confirmed that he will be a villain in Ben Affleck’s upcoming Batman movie.
Ben Affleck is hard at work filming “Justice League” and he revealed the first footage of Deathstroke a few weeks ago. Ever since then fans have been trying to figure out if we’ll be seeing Slade Wilson in “Justice League.”
“Justice League” is being directed by Zack Snyder, and Snyder recently teased fans with a little behind the scenes photo. The photo shows Snyder working on a storyboard while wearing some Batman gear.
You can check out the photo below.

At first glance there’s nothing all that suspicious about the photo, but some fans on the internet dug a little deeper and noticed that Deathstroke appears on the storyboard. Looking even closer you can see that Deathstroke appears to be meeting with someone who looks a lot like Lex Luthor.

Of course Ben Affleck’s Batman solo film is in development and Zack Snyder is working on the film as an executive producer, so, it’s always possible that he could be lending Ben a helping hand. However, it’s impossible to ignore the fact that his tweet includes the hashtag #JusticeLeague.
