Remember when everyone couldn't stop talking about Scott Eastwood possibly playing Deathstroke in "Suicide Squad". That definitely did not happen but that doesn't mean Slade Wilson will not appear in a DC Extended Universe flick. Ben Affleck has just teased about the comic book supervillain's future appearance. But will Deathstroke show up in "Justice League" or Affleck's untitled Batman solo film?
Deathstroke DCEU Appearance Confirmed For 'Justice League' Or Ben Affleck's Batman Solo Film?
Everybody knows how secretive Ben Affleck is. After all, it took forever for him to admit that he is working on the Batman solo film. So fans immediately went crazy when the "Justice League" actor posted a very spoiler-y DCEU video on Twitter. However, it is easy to see why Affleck couldn't wait to share the footage with the world.

It's difficult to watch the test footage without getting any goosebumps. Deathstroke's costume looks spectacular and the unknown actor seems to know how to work it. Still, fans can't help but wonder whether the new Slade Wilson will be in "Justice League" since that's the only DCEU film being shot.
Fans are speculating that Deathstroke will first be introduced in "Justice League" for easy transition to Ben Affleck's Batman solo film. Hopefully, this will finally confirm why Slade Wilson was unceremoniously written off from the "Arrow" storyline.

The only question is, will the movie Deathstroke be better than Bennett's?
