10 Things To Expect From Upcoming DCEU Movies

8. Deathstroke Becomes The Main Recurring Antagonist

It's been reported recently that Warner Bros. is looking to push back Darkseid's arrival into the DCEU as the Thanos-like big bad, and it seems that re-shoots have turned Justice League into a mostly standalone film about the League facing off against Steppenwolf.

In terms of recurring villains, the franchise already has Lex Luthor, but for a more physical threat, it seems quite likely that Deathstroke, who is set to first appear in The Batman, may become one of the DCEU's mainstay antagonists.

After all, blowing such a beloved character on just one movie would be a huge mistake, and so the idea of him re-appearing numerous times to battle Batman and others really sounds like the best way to go.

With so many DC antagonists being CGI-slathered messes, the universe really needs an overarching villain who is both practical in nature and a major physical threat. Deathstroke ticks both those boxes, and Warner hopefully knows that.
