According to the Hollywood Reporter, David Ayer’s Suicide Squad will shoot in Toronto with a working title of Bravo 14, with filming taking place between April and September.
They go on to say that Jai Courtney,
Tom Hardy,
Margot Robbie and
Jared Leto are all in “final stages” of talks.
It’s wildly speculated that Margot Robbie is in for Harley Quinn and that Jared Leto is in for the Joker, but Tom Hardy and Jai Courtney’s roles are still undefined. Looking at them, they could totally be Deathstroke, Deadshot, or Captain Boomerang, right?
The genius of this film is that almost every villain in the DC universe has, at one time, served on Argus’s Task Force X (aka Suicide Squad), so they can pretty much pick whomever they like. If the current run of the comics is any indication, we could get a big screen version of Aquaman bad guy, Black Manta, who clearly has the most amazing helmet in all of comics!
Suicide Squad, starting way back in The Brave and the Bold #25, is about a team of supervillain convicts from all over the DC universe, being given a second chance at redemption by taking dangerous missions for “the good guys” through Amanda Waller’s organization, ARGUS.
