Writer director David
Ayer's Suicide Squad won't get up and running until April when the cameras
start rolling, so there is still some time to refine things, and cast the
characters that need to be cast.
According to Joblo although
the search for Tom Hardy's (Rick Flag) replacement is still underway, the
studio is also looking to cast someone to play his father Rick Flag Sr., who
was rumored awhile back to play an important role in the film. According to
them Ed Harris, and Max Martini are "under consideration" for that particular
role, while Karl Urban is being looked at to play Flag Jr., despite previous
rumors that he was also being considered to play a role in Aquaman.
The site also claims
that supervillain The Thinker will also be in Suicide Squad, and that actor Geoffrey Rush was approached by the studio to play the character but passed on
the role. Gary Sinise was at one point rumored to be playing General Eiling,
but now looks like he will play Lois Lane's father, General Sam Lane, further
connecting Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and Suicide Squad. Joblo adds
that Deathstroke will indeed be in the film, and that either Joe Manganiello (who
we already knew), and Jason Clarke could end up playing the part, which will be
of a "hired
assassin that is competing with the Suicide Squad," and not of a
bodyguard, or member of the team.
To wrap things up,
the site reveals that Jared Leto's Joker and Ben Affleck's Batman already have
a long history together at the time of the events of the Suicide Squad.
"The
Joker is scarred all over his body because of his battles with Batman, he plays
mind games with people and twists [their] minds, [and] everyone is afraid of
him." Finally, Cara
Delevingne's Enchantress character is said to be "really
powerful and instrumental in the film’s prison riot
finale" which is being described as "crazy" good.
As always take it one or two grains of salt, but what
do you think?
