Suicide-Squad

For anyone who enjoys watching the bad guys wreak havoc on an unsuspecting city, the prospect of Suicide Squad is enough to send you dancing down the street with giddiness. Comprising of a mouth-watering assortment of supervillains, the Suicide Squad are all set to create gleeful cinematic pandemonium in August 2016, leaping off the comic book page onto the big screen for the very first time outside of animated form.

A variety of villains have held membership cards for the Suicide Squad across the years, and for the film adaptation next year there’s an exquisite selection of evil characters to gawp at, including Deadshot, The Joker, Harley Quinn, Killer Croc, Plastique, Enchantress and Boomerang.

Whilst the reality of a Suicide Squad movie has got many DC fans foaming at the mouth, one of the main points of discussion surrounding the film has been the choice of casting. Will Smith has readily shaved his head for the role of Deadshot, causing some fans to scratch their own at the thought of the Fresh Prince adopting the role of the vicious marksman. Meanwhile, Jared Leto promises to deliver some sadistic thrills as The Joker, with Jai Courtney starring as Boomerang and Cara Delevingne as the darkly magic Enchantress.

Elsewhere, Margot Robbie as the maniacal Harley Quinn looks to be a delightfully congruous casting choice on paper, and it’s one of the few roles you can vividly picture before it even becomes a reality. We saw a sniff of femme-fatale about her in The Wolf Of Wall Street, and if Robbie manages to draw on these evil leanings whilst striking the right notes of insanity, her portrayal of Quinn could prove to be a captivating watch.

David Ayer provides a safe pair of hands for rough and tumble action movies, with the filmmaker having penned Training Day and S.W.A.T, as well as directing both End of Watch and Fury. He’s set to face his toughest challenge yet with Suicide Squad though and in less than 18 months, we’ll have had our first taste of big screen supervillain play.
