It Looks Like We're Definitely Paying A Visit To Arkham Asylum In JUSTICE LEAGUE
The Ultimate Edition of Batman v Superman revealed that the Dark Knight had arranged to have Lex Luthor sent to Arkham Asylum, and it sounds like we can expect to find him there in Justice League!
It was confirmed last month that Jesse Eisenberg will return as Lex Luthor in Justice League and while many fans believe he will be the one who hires Deathstroke, we have no idea what exactly he'll be getting up to as of right now. However, according to Batman-News, we'll be paying a visit to Arkham Asylum in the superhero ensemble, something which makes sense after Batman v Superman!
While most of their report seems to be speculation, the site points out that a number of Justice League extras and actors on IMDb have updated their profiles to reveal which roles they'll be playing here.
Now, it's obviously worth pointing out that anyone can edit these pages, but those idiots usually just change who someone famous is playing or just add a big name who may have been rumoured to appear; it's rare they make alterations like this! Regardless, among the listings are now the likes of "Arkham Guard," "Arkham Guard 2," and "Lex Luthor's Guard." Could it be that Deathstroke is hired to break Lex out, thereby putting him in the Caped Crusader's crosshairs in the upcoming Batman movie?
We'll have to wait and see, but getting a new look inside Arkham Asylum promises to be very exciting after it was teased in Suicide Squad. As always, let us know your thoughts in the comments section.
