Could David Ayer Be Teasing 'Deathstroke' With New SUICIDE SQUAD Image?

That's certainly one possibility, but whoever it's supposed to be in the silhouetted behind-the-scenes pic David Ayer has posted to his Twitter page, the director isn't giving any hints aside from a very big gun! Click on to take a look and see what you make of it...

Is it possible that this is our first look at Slade Wilson, AKA Deathstroke, in David Ayer's Suicide Squad? We haven't actually had any official confirmation that the character will even appear in the movie, but he's strongly rumoured to be who Jim Parrack (True Blood) will be playing.

Aside from the big-ass firearm, there's nothing in the pic to suggest that it's Deathstroke, but Ayer wouldn't have any reason to obscure the identity of one of the other Squad members considering we've already had a proper glimpse of 'em - be it officially or otherwise. Whoever it is in the image, he's clearly involved in a scene at a firing range.

Directed by David Ayer from his script, Suicide Squad also stars Will Smith (Deadshot), Joel Kinnaman (Rick Flag), Jared Leto (the Joker), Margot Robbie (Harley Quinn), Jai Courtney (Boomerang), Viola Davis (Amanda Waller), Cara Delevingne (Enchantress), Jessie Eisenberg (Lex Luthor), and Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje (Killer Croc), with Raymond Olubawale (King Shark), Jay Hernandez, Ike Barinholtz, Jim Parrack, Adam Beach, and Scott Eastwood. The film releases on August 5, 2016.

Then why would you say he's teasing Deathstroke?

I always thought Deathstroke was when you tied a belt around your neck and then....Oh! The comic book character! Whoops. Think @ BatwingDCCU pretty much summed that picture up.

Click-bait headline, what @Jollem said. But I've really come to like Parrack cast as Slade. Minimum but he was cool in Fury, he has the height and he actually kind of has the look (New 52 wise):




Ridiculously excited for this.

Gun violence is one of the things that makes the U.S. the best country. Nobody's going to invade the U.S. as long as they know we're all locked and loaded. Look how willing we are to kill each other ... what do you think we'd do to some invading foreigners?

Why did you think it's Deathstroke? Just because of the gun??

Um...no that's Ayer or a crew member in the silhouette. Idk how you get Deathstroke from that. Other sites have even supported the claim that's its most likely Ayer or a crew member. Its the crew having fun, taking a cool pic.

Hell, I thought Josh wrote this.

LEVITIKUZ, I didn't say it's Deathstroke. I asked IF it COULD be Deathstroke.

And it could be. How do you know it's Ayer? He's clearly on a movie set... is he cameoing in a firing range scene? You know sweet [frick] all about who this is and what the picture means, so it could be anyone... and it could be Deathstroke.
MarkCassidy
MarkCassidy - 6/17/2015, 6:01 PM
If it's just Ayer or a crew member then why is he in silhouette? We've already seen the rest of the characters on set and Ayer knows that. Think about it.

Ok, then how about you make the headline,

"Is David Ayer Teasing A New Character In New Suicide Squad Image?"

or something along those lines?

MarkCassidy - 6/17/2015, 6:08 PM
MrMartyMarvel, because I genuinely think there's a chance it could be Deathstroke. Plus, who do put in the thumbnail then;)
LEVITIKUZ
LEVITIKUZ - 6/17/2015, 6:10 PM
Why is it I'm the one @RorMachine replied to out of everyone complaining?

I never suggested it was Ayer or anything but it certain doesn't look like anything Deathstroke related considering Deathstroke's known to have twin swords. Not an assault rifle.
