Joe Manganiello’s Deathstroke\u00a0is set to appear in the Knightmare sequence in\u00a0Zack Snyder\u2019s Justice League<\/em><\/strong><\/a>. Last year, it was reported that Manganiello participated in reshoots for the Snyder Cut and will be\u00a0sporting\u00a0a different look than seen in the theatrical version, but fans still wonder what the future holds for the DC villain.<\/p>\n

The actor first played Slade Wilson\/Deathstroke in a post-credits scene in 2017\u2019s\u00a0Justice League.\u00a0<\/em>In the brief scene, Deathstroke and Lex Luthor (Jesse Eisenberg)<\/a>\u00a0discussed teaming up and creating a league of their own. At the time, it was believed that Manganiello\u2019s Deathstroke would be featured heavily in the DC Extended Universe.<\/p>\n

Several Deathstroke-related projects have been canceled over the past four years. The iconic assassin was supposed to be the main villain\u00a0in Ben Affleck\u2019s\u00a0The Batman<\/em><\/a> and a solo\u00a0Deathstroke<\/em>\u00a0film\u00a0was in the works at Warner Bros. In fact,\u00a0The Raid<\/em>\u2019s Gareth Evans was attached to direct the project and said the film would tell Slade Wilson\u2019s origin story. Plans soon\u00a0shifted\u00a0after Warner Bros. changed executives and the studio decided to go in a different direction and restructure the DCEU. For instance, after Ben Affleck stepped away from directing The Batman<\/em> and eventually retired from the role altogether, director Matt Reeves joined the project and took it in a completely different direction, with Robert Pattinson now playing the Dark Knight and the Riddler serving as the main adversary.<\/p>\n

Now, Manganiello has shared why Warner Bros scrapped the solo\u00a0Deathstroke<\/em>\u00a0movie. “When the dust settled, it was not seen as a priority to make a $40 million movie about a villain origin story in which you show the backstory,” said the\u00a0Magic Mike<\/em>\u00a0star to the\u00a0Hollywood Reporter<\/em>. The actor stated that they re-did the post-credit sequence to tease the villains of Justice League 2<\/em><\/a>, but the sequel \u201cclearly\u201d never happened.<\/p>\n

The DC villain will be featured in a new extended scene in\u00a0Zack Snyder’s Justice League<\/em> and\u00a0<\/em>Manganiello\u00a0has teased Deathstroke’s new look<\/a> on social media. “[At] the end of the film I always envisioned him shaving his head into some kind of warlike, borderline suicide mission, ‘This is it, I’m going to die like a warrior,'” said the actor. “I explained that to Zack, and he said, ‘Great, let’s do it.\u2019” During a recent fan panel, Snyder discussed how Deathstroke will be utilized in the upcoming blockbuster. “Joe’s character in this movie when we find him clearly he and Batman have struck some sort of a deal and they have a bit of a partnership,” Snyder said.<\/p>\n

Deathstroke first appeared in the 1980’s New Teen Titans<\/em>\u00a0#2 and\u00a0was created by writer Marv Wolfman and artist George P\u00e9rez. In the comics, the character was an elite assassin who used his superhuman powers to wreak havoc on Batman and the Justice League. Slade Wilson appeared in the 2003 animated series\u00a0Teen Titans<\/em><\/a>\u00a0and was voiced by Ron Perlman. The villain was also played by Manu Bennett\u00a0on The CW’s\u00a0Arrow<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Zack Snyder\u2019s Justice League <\/i><\/b>will premiere on HBO Max on March 18, 2021.<\/p>\n
