The Batman project for example, originally was taken on by Ben Affleck to co-write, direct and star as the titular hero, but has since been completely taken over by War of the Planet of the Apes director Matt Reeves with Affleck’s reprisal as Batman up in the air.
Other places for Deathstroke in the DCEU floating around the rumor mill or as suggestions have included becoming the main villain in the next Batman project or as an addition to Suicide Squad 2.
Earlier this week, Suicide Squad 2 was taken over by Guardians of the Galaxy’s James Gunn who is signed on to develop a new script and direct the sequel.
However, both films have seen quite a few roadblocks and switch-ups since the beginning of development.
