Joe Manganiello Shares Teaser Of Deathstroke’s Mask


Though it may have seemed like a no-go before, Joe Manganiello is officially set to star as Deathstroke in the DCEU in his own movie, and The Raid director Gareth Evans is set to direct. We don't know how far the film has gone into production, but Manganiello has shared a cool teaser of DS' mask online.

Check it out:

Of course, it's possible that this isn't the final prop that will be used for the movie, but it's still a pretty cool teaser. Originally Deathstroke was set to appear in Ben Affleck's solo Batman movie, but with director Matt Reeves taking over, it seems that plans to have Slade Wilson appear were changed.

Personally I'm not sure if Deathstroke is a big enough name to draw audiences in to theaters, but I'm sure if the film included a bunch more DC villains (and maybe even Bat-fleck himself), a lot of people would be coming onboard. You think Suicide Squad would have been as successful without the inclusion of Harley Quinn or the Joker?

For now, fans will just have to wait for more details to leak out for the Deathstroke film. It seems that WB is being cautious with their DCEU movies from now on, and they're waiting on the performance of Justice League to see how they move forward with the rest of the universe. Hopefully JL manages to follow the success of Wonder Woman.

No official release date has been announced for Deathstroke, but Justice League is set to come out Nov. 17.
