Manu Bennett has been KILLING IT once again as Deathstroke on Arrow this season. He came back at the end of Season 5 much to the happiness of fans and Bennett himself. He was written off after Season 2 because he was originally supposed to be making his cinematic debut at the end of Justice League. Well, it seems that he’s once again being moved off of the small screen due to the Deathstroke solo movie happening. Read what producer Marc Guggenheim has to say about it below.
“Yeah, I think you know as a result we’ve been on and off. For a time they were saying ‘you can’t use Deathstroke’, and that changed and we were able to have Slade Wilson back on the show, and now we’re back to ‘you can’t use him’. They’re working on the feature film version, it really is sort of now that you’ve got obviously Slade, spoiler alert, Deathstroke appears at the end of the Justice League movie.”
This is complete and utter BS once again. You can have two flashes but not two Deathstrokes? It’s not like the audiences even give a crap. They can handle both of them just like they can take a poor-man’s Grant Gustin in Ezra Millers flash. Deathstroke is one of the best things to happen to Arrow and Bennett coming back has been epic. Joe Manganiello will be playing the character on screen. Bah to WB yet again not knowing wtf to do with it’s characters.
