8 Actors Who Could Play Deathstroke In The DCEU

The internet went into meltdown today when Batman himself Ben Affleck dropped a massive revelation on his Twitter account – fan-favourite villain Deathstroke the Terminator was coming to the DCEU!

Following on from that piece of detective work, another possible candidate is Joe Manganiello. The 39 year old actor has previous with comic book films, as he played Peter Parker’s high school bully Flash Thompson in 2002’s Spider-Man (he also reprised the role in a cameo at Harry’s funeral in Spider-Man 3).

While Manganiello hasn’t been confirmed to star in Justice League like Jones, we do know that he is currently in London – where Zack Snyder’s movie just happens to be filming. Speaking of Snyder, the DC director also just happens to be the most recent person the actor has followed on his Twitter account.

So, are these two facts just a coincidence? Well, yes, possibly. But you have to admit that Manganiello has the right physicality for the metahuman mercenary. It could well be him looking out at us from under that orange and black mask.
