So is this the first confirmed villain for Justice League? With the film in production right now and the footage clearly filmed from a monitor it looks like this iconic villain could be facing off against the DC Comics hero.
Maybe the master assassin is being teased as he will appear in Ben Affleck's solo Batman film? This seems less likely as that movie has no confirmed release date and Ben Affleck has already gone on record to say the project is still in the early stages of development and they are waiting for the perfect script which he is working on with DC Entertainment's Chief Creative Officer, Geoff Johns.
"We're still working on it and I'm not happy enough with it yet to actually go out there and make a Batman movie, which I would have the highest of standards I would say." Affleck said.
You never know though, could Affleck be assembling portions of his Batman film whilst also filming his scenes for Justice League? After all, Zack Snyder filmed Ezra Miller's Flash cameo for Suicide Squad from the Justice League set so it's not totally out of the realms of possibility that Affleck may be over excited and sharing some solo Batman goodies very early.
Whatever the case may be, fans have cause for excitement as we've all been eager to see Deathstroke join the DC cinematic universe for forever and it looks as though that is finally happening for real. What do you guys think?
Need a Batman fix now? Well we have spent ALOT of time thinking about how this new solo Batman film could shape up, check out our thoughts our podcast special
