10 New DC Extended Universe Characters To Look Out For In 2017
2. Deathstroke
Who's Playing Him? Joe Manganiello.
Who's Joe Manganiello? Our third and final veteran of Sam Raimi's Spider-Man trilogy on this list has appeared in the Magic Mike films and has had recurring roles on shows like How I Met Your Mother, E.R., and One Tree Hill, but many will likely know him best from his time as Alcide Herveaux on HBO's True Blood.
What's He Appearing In? Possibly Justice League.
Why You Should Be Excited: Though we know for sure that Slade "Deathstroke" Wilson will be appearing in the Batman solo film, a potential appearance in Justice League has yet to be confirmed. That said, the character is one of the very few who has been cast this far out and had test footage teasing him released, which just seems too premature for a movie that could be at least two or more years out, practically suggesting instead that we'll be seeing him sooner than later. It's hard to deny Deathstroke's appeal among fans - from his storied past and personality down to his badass costume - but the character has yet to really become a household name, and a role in such a mainstream event like Justice League will undoubtedly change that forever.
