DC loves spotlighting its villains, and THR reports that another villain-centric project is in the works. The outlet has heard that DC Studios is developing a movie that will unite Bane and Deathstroke. Matthew Orton, who worked on Captain America: Brave New World, has penned the script but no director is attached to the project.
DC has always excelled at highlighting villains, with the recently released Penguin series starring Colin Farrell as an example. We’ve also got Joker: Folie à Deux coming next week. I’ll confess that I’m not a big comic-book guy, so Deathstroke and Bane seem like a random pairing, but I’m sure the more comic-literate among you will be able to set me right. Maybe they’re good buds.

Bane has made the leap to live-action on several occasions. He was portrayed by Robert Swenson and Michael Reid MacKay in Batman & Robin, by Shane West in Gotham, and by Tom Hardy in The Dark Knight Rises. As for Deathstroke, we’ve seen several incarnations of the character in live-action, including Antonio Sabàto Jr. in Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman, Michael Hogan in Smallville, Manu Bennett in Arrow, Esai Morales in Titans, and Joe Manganiello in Justice League.
