Now the fan theories have started to fly.
It’s possible that Lex Luthor could be hiring Deathstroke for a job — perhaps to take out Batman? Last we saw of Jesse Eisenberg’s Lex Luthor was at the end of Batman Vs. Superman where Batman threatened Lex Luthor and had him transported to Arkham. It’s possible that Lex could get released due to being mentally incompetent (or whoever he has there in his pockets), or is it even possible that the meeting between Lex and Slade takes place at Arkham?
Deathstroke, played by Joe Manganiello, will be appearing in the Ben Affleck Batman movie, so this could be a scene setting up his further apperances.
“Justice League” has a November 17, 2017 release directed by Zack Snyder starring Ben Affleck as Batman, Henry Cavill as Superman, Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman, Jason Momoa as Aquaman, Ezra Miller as The Flash, Ray Fisher as Cyborg, J.K. Simmons as Commissioner Gordon and Willem Dafoe the an Atlantean, Nuidis Vulko.
Synopis:
Fueled by his restored faith in humanity and inspired by Superman’s selfless act, Bruce Wayne enlists the help of his newfound ally, Diana Prince, to face an even greater enemy. Together, Batman and Wonder Woman work quickly to find and recruit a team of metahumans to stand against this newly awakened threat. But despite the formation of this unprecedented league of heroes—Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Cyborg and The Flash—it may already be too late to save the planet from an assault of catastrophic proportions.
