10 Villains We Want To See In The DC Extended Universe (And Who Should Play Them)

The future of the DC Extended Universe is in a state of flux at the moment, but one thing that does look set to happen in an upcoming movie is the formation of the Legion of Doom (or Injustice League) - a band of supervillains to face off against the might of the League. After all, JL's post-credits scene, featuring Lex Luthor recruiting Deathstroke, caused such excitement from fans that DC would be wise to double down on its promise.

But what other villains could feature as part of Luthor’s Legion? Well, a few that have already been cast would likely join – such as Jared Leto’s Joker, Dwayne Johnson’s Black Adam and Yahya Abdul-Mateen II’s Black Manta – but what about the rest? Obviously, there are plenty more incredible antagonists littering the pages of DC comics that we would love to see realized on the big screen.

The key to their success, though, is to get the perfect actor or actress to play them. And so, to give the brass at Warner Bros. a helping hand, we’ve compiled a list of 10 DC supervillains we want to see in upcoming films and listed who we think should play them.

As always, if you’ve got any of your own picks that we might’ve missed, feel free to add them in via the comments section down below.
