While visiting Seattle's 106.1 KISS FM radio station to promote Insurgent earlier this week, actor Jai Courtney talked for the first time about Suicide Squad, in which he plays George "Digger" Harkness aka Captain Boomerang. "I'm not on set [yet, but] I'm about to ship out as we speak," he said. "I'm going to Toronto to [start] shooting." Courtney was then asked if his bulked physique is for the supervillain role. "Yeah it is a little," he replied, adding, "I'm playing an Aussie, so I've just been eating meat pie and drinking beer; it's such a stretch." In a separate interview with Seattle's King5 news station, the Aussie actor had expressed excitement to be playing an Australian character with Captain Boomerang, while also reconfirming that he'll be in Toronto, Canada next week for the DC Comics adaptation. In other Suicide Squad news, the Associated Press recently recorded Jared Leto on video confirming what we've already known about his bleached blonde hair: "It's for a film called Suicide Squad [and] I'm playing the Joker, so it's part of the process." What do you think?

Directed by David Ayer from his script, Suicide Squad stars Will Smith (Deadshot), Joel Kinnaman (Rick Flag), Jared Leto (the Joker), Margot Robbie (Harley Quinn), Jai Courtney (Boomerang), with Cara Delevingne (Enchantress), and Jessie Eisenberg (Lex Luthor). The film opens August 5, 2016!
