Could Common Be Portraying This Classic AQUAMAN Villain In SUICIDE SQUAD?
Take this news with a huge grain of salt, but a new Suicide Squad report has surfaced suggesting that Common may not be playing John Stewart a.k.a. the Green Lantern, but might actually be playing a villain, a villain Aquaman fans are probably more than familiar with! Come check it out!
Let me say it again, take this next bit of news with a huge grain, possibly a whole bag, of salt.
A few days ago, when it was announced that Academy Award-winning composer Lonnie Rashid Lynn a.k.a. Common had landed a role in David Ayer's upcoming Suicide Squad, it was widely assumed the role he had landed might have been the coveted part of John Stewart a.k.a. the Green Lantern.
There's still a good chance that turns out to be true, but now a new Twitter scoop from JoBlo editor-in-chief Paul Shirey is suggesting that Common's role may actually be that of Aquaman's archenemy, the Black Manta! Now, before anyone jumps to any serious conclusions, Shirey reiterates that the legitimacy of the scoop may be questionable. Check out his tweet below:
What do you guys think? Would you want to see Common as the Green Lantern? Or as the Black Manta? Would you rather he team-up with the Justice League? Or would you rather see him face-off against the League and Jason Momoa's Aquaman? Sound off with your thoughts below!
