We reported a little while back about some compelling news that linked Joe Manganiello to being attached to the role of Deathstroke in the upcoming Batman solo film. If you want those details head over to our Facebook page (FB.com/GambitMagazine) to check out the original video we posted breaking down the clues we dug up.
Well, it has now been confirmed that Joe Manganiello is in fact playing DC’s most deadly assassin. In an interview with The Wall Street Journal, DC Entertainment chief creative office Geoff Johns confirmed the casting news. The video that we showed on Facebook, and that was passed around the internet was apparently a screen test that was shoot during the filming of Justice League.
He looks great as the villain, but we have yet to hear the voice, so we are going to hold back on our full thoughts on the casting. No word on the solo Batman film yet, but after Batman fought Superman his future rogues are going to have to really step up their game.
Justice League hits theaters on Nov. 10, 2017.
