In the DCEU, a character already adapted will have a new version by James Gunn
James Gunn has confirmed that he has villainous plans for the Justice League.

A fan on Instagram asked him to see Gungun if he had plans for Deathstroke. It didn’t take long for the filmmaker to respond with a winking emoji, thus confirming that Slade Wilson will be a part of the DC Universe.
Deathstroke last appeared on the big screen in the DCEU, with Joe Manganiello bringing the iconic villain to life. It’s unlikely that Manganiello will be the version of Gunn, so it will still take a while to find out who will be playing the new Deathstroke. Also, right now Gunn is very busy with his Superman movie and the second season of The Peacemaker.
