SPOILERS: Here's Your First Look At An Unexpected JUSTICE LEAGUE Character
We've seen things regarding [SPOILER] in the past, but a leaked piece of footage from the Justice League movie has revealed a surprising appearance that's sure to make fans of the comic books happy!
Before you go any further, be warned that MAJOR SPOILERS for Justice League follow! Still here? Well, earlier today, we learned that one of the movie's after-credits scenes revolves around a meeting between Lex Luthor and Deathstroke after the mercenary has presumably broken the villain out of Arkham Asylum. Now, more of that scene has been revealed and it features a huge moment for fans.
As Lex talks about the formation of a "League," Deathstroke decided to unmask and we see that Joe Manganiello is sporting not only Slade Wilson's signature eyepatch but white hair and a beard as well.
Unfortunately, the clip cuts off before we can learn what Luthor is planning (if this was shot before Ben Affleck stepped down as the director of The Batman, it could be that he's sending him to kill the Dark Knight) but Manganiello looks like he's been torn straight from the pages of the comic books and it's going to be very interesting seeing what this sets up in the DC Films Universe. The Injustice League?
