During the production of Suicide Squad there were a lot of rumors about the infamous DC villain Deathstroke showing up in the movie. As we all know that did not happen. However after this morning, I think we can all rest easy knowing that there is a big possibility that the DC baddie will be in either the upcoming solo Batman film or Justice League.
Check out the footage that Justice League star Ben Affleck just tweeted:

For those of you that don’t know much about Deathstroke, here’s a bit of info:
“Deathstroke (Slade Joseph Wilson) is a fictional character who appears in comic books published by DC Comics. The character was created by Marv Wolfman and George Perez. He is a mercenary and assassin who first appeared in The New Teen Titans (vol. 1) #2 (1980)–Originally the archenemy of the Teen Titans, writers have developed him over the years as an adversary of other heroes in the DC Universe. Parallels have been established between him and Batman, and he has a deep-seated grudge against Green Arrow. The character has been substantially adapted from the comics into multiple forms of media, including several Batman related projects and the Teen Titans animated series. Slade Wilson/Deathstroke later appeared on The CW’s live action TV series Arrow, where he is portrayed by Manu Bennett.
