Support NeoGAF

[Slayven]

I doubt Joker will be on the squad, even other Supervillains won't work with him unless they absolutely has to.

 

[Nokagi]

Why would someone want Harley and Joker on a stealth mission? What skills do they provide? Deadshot is the best sniper in the world, Captain Boomerang has his marksman skills as well and Enchantress (Marvel villain?) is adept at magic.

What do Joker and Harley provide? Not to mention they're both crazy so they're unstable as fuck.

Joker's not actually part of the team is he? All I know about the Suicide Squad is from that Assault on Arkham cartoon and he was more of an antagonist for the group than anything.

 

[strafer]

Is this acceptable to use, taken from Comingsoon.net.

 

[besada]

I doubt Joker will be on the squad, even other Supervillains won't work with him unless they absolutely has to.

I'm wondering if Joker is part of the mission.

 

[Sojgat]

They actually went and got Smith and Hardy. With the rest, that´s a mighty impressive cast for that movie.

Now get someone to play fat Waller and i´m happy.

Please God, do this for me.

 

[Hagi]

I wonder if we'll get the New52 Joker

Spoiler

with his face cut off

. Would make it a completely new look aesthetically than TDK and previous films. Hope they go for it.

God no. This could lead to Jokers Daughter being a thing and nobody but some twat who keeps pushing her at DC wants that.

 

[Slayven]

I'm wondering if Joker is part of the mission.

Maybe Joker stole a nuke or a vat of Velocity 7 or a Mother Box and they have to stop him before he does something with it.

 

[Discotheque]

Oprah as Waller will be GOAT. She commanded like 90% of the female population of America at her peak, these dorks will be easy

 

[Schweinehund]

One with deadshot's actual face would be cool but that's a neat collage.

 

[Totobeni]

Has Will Smith done many movies where he isn't the main number 1 actor/character?

I still remember that story about him and Django Unchained.

I think after AfterEarth disaster (and Seven Pounds, Men in Black 3 not doing well) he'll be ok not playing the only star of the show.

 

[NipplesAndToes23]

I doubt Joker will be on the squad, even other Supervillains won't work with him unless they absolutely have to.

"You want me to work with who? Nah, not that crazy motherfucker!"


Deadshot may be a cold-blooded killer, but the things that Joker has done...

 

[Ravek]

I'm wondering if Joker is part of the mission.

Like to recruit? Or as a "hit"?

 

[Nesotenso]

Going for Star power for an unknown property is smart. Just wondering if the cast is too expensive for this project.

And Will Smith for Deadshot? Did not see that coming. In fact never saw Will Smith doing one of these movies.

edit: yeah I meant Deadshot not Deadpool

 

[Biggu Bosu]

Holy shit at this cast

 

[besada]

Maybe Joker stole a nuke or a vat of Velocity 7 or a Mother Box and they have to stop him before he does something with it.

Joker finds a vat of venom, mixes it with Joker poison, and turns all of Gotham into vicious, grinning killers. The SS is sent in to end his reign of terror, by any means necessary.

Lawton is the only one other than Harley that might work with him, since Mr. J is likely to give him an interesting death. I have a hard time imagining Flag working with the Joker. He can barely stand to work with Lawton.

 

[ryan299]

Is the Joker actually in the Squad? I see him as a villain that the squad is sent to get

 

[Slayven]

"You want me to work with who? Nah, not that crazy motherfucker!"


Deadshot may be a cold-blooded killer, but the things that Joker has done...

The Secret Society of Super Villains invited every supervillian on earth including guys like Loophole, and Glow Worm, but they went out of their way not invite Joker because he was too crazy.

 

[Ravek]

Deadshot.

Not Deadpool.

 

[Lilalaunebaer]

Please God, do this for me.

You know what, i actually want that to happen. I don´t even know if she can act (never saw anything from her except stuff from her show). But you can bet she´s going to get the masses to show up just for her.

 

[Team Filler]

That is one helluva cast list. Even though CCH Pounder already knows the character well and has a commanding screen presence, I absolutely want Oprah if she's willing. That's some "holy shit" casting right there.

 

[Tatsumaki Senpuukyaku!]

Has Will Smith done many movies where he isn't the main number 1 actor/character?

I still remember that story about him and Django Unchained.

Independence Day was more of an ensamble cast. That was before he became a huge A list actor tho.

An adaption of Joker's Last Laugh? I can fuck with taht

 

[besada]

She's amazing in The Color Purple. I'm more worried about Smith pulling off Deadshot.

 

[GringoSuave89]

This work?

 

[hal9001]

Jared leto as Joker may be one of the most astute casting decisions in ages.

 

[Gambit 1138]

I would have switched hardy and smith for deadshot and flag and cast Leto and smith as the lesser known punch and jewlee to save joker and Harley for the batman movie but otherwise fantastic cast.

 

[JdFoX187]

I really imagine Joker will have more of a role similar to Assault on Arkham. Or if he's a full cast member, he'll be the antagonist, which is why Harley is on the team. Really curious about the aesthetics of the movie more than anything. Is this going to be a true, gritty David Ayer film or something a bit more...sterile.

 

[Team Filler]

She's amazing in The Color Purple. I'm more worried about Smith pulling off Deadshot.

Yeah, this. Oprah hasn't acted in too many roles, but she's excellent in the ones I've seen (IMO, anyways).

 

[Massive Duck. C.M.]

She's amazing in The Color Purple. I'm more worried about Smith pulling off Deadshot.

Yeah, Sophia was already halfway there.

Surprised about Smith too; I only know Deadshot from the DCAU but he's usually more deadpan.

 

[block tower]

so does finally mean DC is going to just start doing one-off live action films, sort of in the vein of their animated films? or is this part of a larger DC film universe?

 

[strafer]

This work?

Woah, that's cool. I'll put it in the OP.

 

[besada]

I would have switched hardy and smith for deadshot and flag and cast Leto and smith as the lesser known punch and jewlee to save joker and Harley for the batman movie but otherwise fantastic cast.

Ooh, Punch and Jewlee would have been so good and soooo creepy.

 

[SargerusBR]

Wait a minute. The script is being written by Justin Marks? The same Justin Marks who wrote this POS?

 

[_Ryo_]

DC wants this movie to fail, don't they?

Also read a rumor they want to cast Opera.

 

[Discotheque]

I haven't really been impressed with Leto in the past so I dunno about him playing this character

Like when the last two films had upper echelon's of talent like ledger and Nicholson this seems a bit...underwhelming

He'll pull off the look and the laugh very well but I don't think it will be surprising

 

[GringoSuave89]

I'm hoping for an R rating, but I kinda doubt it. However, the comments about this being an "Ocean's 11 with villains" makes me hopeful we'll get a twinge of humor in this. Dark humor preferably.

 

[Not]

I'm guessing DC hope this'll be their GotG?

Casting a web browser would be a mistake

I seriously hope this. I like joined continuity as much as the next person, but I also really want to see some of the more crazy stuff make it to live action, like Superman Red Son.

 

[Tactics18]

Great cast. minus Jai Courtney.
And I've never heard about Cara Delevingne so I guess we'll see about that.

I was really hoping for Deathstroke though :\ just give it to Manu

 

[freeofgreed]

Will Smith as Deadshot? Fuck yes!

Weird that the Joker's in it though.

 

[Tatsumaki Senpuukyaku!]

What are the odds that Will Smith allows them to give him a costume that covers his whole face? I'm going with 0%.

 

[Schweinehund]

iirc Eisenberg is in suicide squad. It's definitely linked and I feel confident that every movie announced in DC's slate is all interconnected. I think Neil Gaiman said Sandman movie and justice league dark were still in the works but they weren't a part of the main universe and that is why they weren't announced with those films.

 

[Gambit 1138]

This is a shared universe dawg

Nobody is making one off films anymore

 

[Bobby Roberts]

 

[jelly]

Will Smith has lost steam over the years. He probably needs this to give his career a jolt. About time, he would be much better not being his vehicle every time.

Margot as Harley, amazing. What a cast nearly all round. Can't wait.

 

[Totobeni]

I think this is with the DC cinematic universe.

so far rumors hints that only Shazam (Captain Marvel) can be separated from the rest/not in the same universe as the rest but that also just based on on of the the Rock tweets.

 

[Schweinehund]

That would be hilarious especially if they kept his comic book origins.

And I've never heard about Cara Delevingne so I guess we'll see about that.

She's in the newest Die Antwoord video, if you'd like to see her in motion, wearing strange make up.

Of course, mentioning Die Antwoord just makes me wish they'd gotten them to play Joker and Harley.
