WATCH: Ben Affleck teases new villain for the Justice League movie

A big reveal…

Fresh off the very average reviews that accompanied the release of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, Ben Affleck is back at work, this time on the new Justice League movie which will be released in 2017.

Affleck teased out the potential villain from the movie, whom some comic book fans will instantly recognise as Slade Wilson or Deathstroke.

He provided no context at all with his tweet so we can only assume that this is a test screening of some kind and everything else about the video is just speculation at this stage.

With Affleck scheduled to appear in the Justice League movie it appears that he’s giving audiences a glimpse of the potential villain for fans to salivate over.

But there’s the question of if Deathstroke is a big enough star to be a problem for the entire Justice League or is this a preview of the villain for a Batman movie…

Only time will tell.
