In the entire DC Universe, there few people are dangerous as Deathstroke. Born Slade Wilson, Deathstroke was entered the military at a young age, before being voluntarily subjected a to a series of experiments which heightened all of his physical and mental attributes.

Fashioned into a living weapon, Deathstroke is one of the most dangerous physical combatants in the entire DC Universe, proficient in almost every martial art known to man, and able to stand toe-to-toe, and even defeat, some of the most skilled fighters in all of DC comics lore.

In a DC Extended Universe in which more 'realistic' takes on characters are presented, Deathstroke is a character who could fit very well into this world. Deathstroke has featured in The CW's 'Arrow' in the past, but the more expansive universe in the upcoming DC film's could really show the full extent of Deathstrokes skills, as he takes on characters that harness the power of gods. With the know-how to take on, and overcome, almost all of the Justice League single-handedly, Deathstroke could present both a physical threat to characters like Batman, Wonder Woman and Green Lantern, while also displaying the cunning that it takes for a human to defeat the likes of The Flash or Superman, making him, overall, a very interesting character to watch on the big screen.
