15 Upcoming Comic Book Movie Villains We Can’t Wait To See

2. The League Of Evil

The Movie: Justice League 2? Man Of Steel 2? The Batman?

Played By: Jesse Eisenberg and Joe Mangianello

Though Justice League might have caused some Warner Bros executives to get a little hot under the collar and fearful for the future of the DCEU, the film still seeded one exciting prospect for a future story in a DC movie.

After the credits, we finally got to see the debut of Joe Mangianello's Deathstroke, called to an audience with Jesse Eisenberg's escaped convict Lex Luthor to join his fledgling villainous league to balance out the formation of The Justice League.

Now, say what you want about Eisenberg's performance in Batman v Superman, but having an alliance of top villains - called the League Of Evil for marketability - face off with the Justice League (or individual members) is still a nice little idea. It's also probably better than Warner Bros trying to make another inhuman monster villain work after two failed goes.
