Why you should care about the cast of the Suicide Squad
— Posted by
The "Superior" Anthony
Announcing the cast of the Suicide Squad film shook the internet earlier this week with a plethora of unexpected names being announced in the lineup in the ensemble film. In one move DC has, (arguably), trumped every bit of casting every by Marvel and their films and has assembled what might be the best cast in a comic book movie ever. Probably the most surprising casting announcement of all was that of Will Smith taking on the role of Deadshot for DC. Will Smith has had an interest in expanding the types of roles that he accepts for a while but with nothing developing from those rumors for years most people figured that it wouldn’t happen. Deadshot is the equivalent of an Expendable with Hawkeye level accuracy in aim making him one of the most sought out assassins in DC’s stable of villains. Ladies and Gentleman,
Tom Hardy returning to the DC universe already? He’s taking on Rick Flagg whom I have no exposure to so I’m going to reserve judgment on the character but instead appreciate the added layer of talent layered on this film. My Guess is that he’s the “Agent Coulson” of the group and will be more of a strategical leader.
David Ayer just rocked it with Fury so seeing this film as his next project is incredibly exciting. Let’s all pray and hope that WB was able to lock in some secure and BINDING contracts for all those involved so we don’t have a repeat of the last time I got excited about a director/actor casting in a comic film. Heck, im still scarred by that one and am more than apprehensive to post about these castings. Let’s see where things go from here but on paper this looks like it should even trump Fox’s All-Star X-Men cast and raise the bar for casting for everyone across the board while lowering concern for practically everyone
