Well Warner Bros/DC is making a huge attempt to grab all the Hollywood A-Listers they can for their new set of Superhero movies. Today WB president David Silverman did issue this statement about the casting announcement.
“The Warner Bros. roots are deep on this one David Ayer returns to the studio where he wrote Training Day and brings his incredible ability to craft multidimensional villains to this iconic DC property with a cast of longtime Warner collaborators Will Smith and Tom Hardy, and other new and returning favorites: Margot (Robbie), Jared (Leto), Jai (Courtney) and Cara (Delevinge). We look forward to seeing this terrific ensemble, under Ayer’s amazing guidance, give new meaning to what it means to be a villain and what it means to be a hero.”
Jared Leto as the Joker is exciting, I think he’ll fit into that role perfectly but Will Smith as Deadshot. I wouldn’t have picked that one. Either way Suicide Squad looks to be the Guardians of the Galaxy for DC with a relatively unknown story but now with a huge cast.
Jai Courtney ruins my life, I don’t know why he keeps getting cast in these huge movies.
We’ll keep you posted when we get the first trailer or some official images. As for now…
SUICIDE SQUAD in cinemas from August 5, 2016
