Justice League BTS featuring Joe Manganiello as Deathstroke
Spoiler right here. Here’s a Justice League BTS featuring Joe Manganiello as Deathstroke the Terminator aka Slade Wilson.
So this post is a massive Justice League spoiler okay?
In the second post credit scene for the film directed by Zack Snyder, we return to Lex Luthor locked up in Arkham Asylum after the events of Batman v Superman. As the guards get to him in what appears to be a headcount after an incident, its revealed that the person occupying Luthor’s cell was a proxy.
We then see Deathstroke boarding a huge yacht called the Icon. Then we cut to Lex Luthor (Jesse Eisenberg) telling Deathstroke that the metahumans have created their League and he wants to have something like that as well.
Then we cut to Manganiello’s Slade Wilson looking on without his helmet.
So anyway, here’s a BTS shot of the Magic Mike and True Blood actor in costume as shared on Reddit.
Inset above was the scene with Deathstroke without his helmet but with the character’s trademark eyepatch.
What do you guys think? Should they continue using Manganiello as the DCU’s deadliest assassin or should they go with a different actor for Matt Reeves’ solo Batman movie?
Joe definitely looks the part and looks like he could nail the role. Its a shame Warner Bros. still hasn’t given the Deathstroke spin-off movie an official green light. Can’t wait to see him in action.
