Suicide Squad is building up to be a huge project for Warner Bros and DC Comics, it features a whole array of DC characters including Captain Boomerang (Jai Courtney, Divergent & Water Diviner), Deadshot (Will smith, The Pursuit of Happyness & Seven Pounds), Rick Flagg (Joel Kinnaman, RoboCop & Easy Money) , Harley Quinn (Margot Robbie, The Wolf of Wallstreet), Katana (Karen Fukuhara), Enchantress (Cara Delevingne, Anna Karenina & upcoming Pan), Killer Croc (Adewale Akinnuoye- Agbaje), El Diablo (Jay Hernandez), Slipknot (Adam Beach), Amanda Waller (Viola Davis, Prisoners & The Help) and Joker (Jared Leto, Mr. Nobody & Dallas Buyers Club).
The movie is based on DC Comics conceived by John Ostrander, it is about a group of DC super-villains who are hired by Amanda Waller for a highly classified and dangerous government mission. It’s been revealed that the main villain is “The Adversary” and Joker is one of them. We know that Batman is also in the movie looking at the trailers, footages etc. David Ayer told the Collider that it was his idea to include Dark Knight in the movie, he further said that there are many flashbacks and converging storylines, most of the members of Taskforce X were taken down because of the Batman heroism, it’s only logical to acknowledge that in the movie. Joker is his prime adversary, Harley Quinn is connected and Deadshot has a long history with the Batman. The difference between this version of Batman and all the other ones is we will not see the story of Batman from his own perspective, but from the point of view of criminals.
At Sandiego ComicCon, one of the most amazing attraction was Hot Toy booth, where fans saw a Joker wearing a Batsuit embossed with Bat symbol. Yeah, you read it right. It could be a fun collectible for DC fans attending ComicCon, but there is a lot of evidence that is to the contrary. For instance, every other toy was a representation of the movie, in Batman v Superman we saw Joker’s graffiti on Robin’s costume and there is a scene in which someone seems to be impersonating Batman. Well,…we will see…CHEERS!
