While we speculate whether or not Batman v Superman will indeed be split into two films, cast your attention to Warner Bros.' other superhero offering of 2016, Suicide Squad. Director David Ayer is not the most prolific tweeter, but he has shared this quick snap of Squad member Jai Courtney (who plays DC villain Captain Boomerang) doing some physical training. It's not much, but at least it's something, right? Suicide Squad hits theatres August 5th, 2016.

Varro!!



Can't wait to see him Suicide Squad. He's great in Spartacus.

I think Enchantress will be killed off in the movie. Mostly because the character is the least known. Deadshot, Rick Flag and Captain Boomerang are all Suicide Squad mainstays and Harley Quinn is waaay to popular.

@SnapperCarr Or maybe she somehow escapes which leads into Del Torro's JLDark!

He's working hard to play a pretty boring character

The Arrow version was lame. Totally out of character.

Cap Boomerang is a jerk in all the possible ways. That's what makes him cool.

Great casting, he is the perfect actor to be playing a tool.

At least they cast an Aussie for an Aussie character unlike that new Mad Max movie.

...or that South American (?) Digger on Arrow. WTF was that?

I did like his characterization though.

@MightyZeus
I'm so happy that I don't have to suffer through hearing an American/Brit doing an awful Australian 'impersonation'.
RexDartEskimoSpy
RexDartEskimoSpy - 1/9/2015, 8:51 PM
Excuse me, he's Lebanese. Which makes complete fvcking sense for Captain Fvcking Boomerang.

Hope they get his costume right
RexDartEskimoSpy
RexDartEskimoSpy - 1/9/2015, 8:53 PM
Is there a person anywhere on Earth named DIGGER that isn't Australian?
MightyZeus
MightyZeus - 1/9/2015, 8:54 PM
@staypuffed

Only us real Aussies know when an American or a Brit are doing a fake Aussie accent.

RexDartEskimoSpy - 1/9/2015, 8:55 PM
It just pissed me off that they're letting Arrow screw up arguably the best Flash villain.
yonny616
yonny616 - 1/9/2015, 9:00 PM
@RedDartEskimoSpy How are they screwing him up? Because they didn't cast an Australian?
RexDartEskimoSpy
RexDartEskimoSpy - 1/9/2015, 9:01 PM
You got your revenge for decades of Yanks doing bad Aussie accents when you let loose Sam Worthington and his piss-poor American accent.

Maybe I AM a little drunk so what?

Yeah, man. I almost had a conniption watching Pacific Rim.

@RexDartEskimoSpy
I think Captain Cold's the best Flash villain, and he was done brilliantly.
RexDartEskimoSpy
RexDartEskimoSpy - 1/9/2015, 9:05 PM
@yonny616:

Honestly? Yeah. Captain Boomerang should be Australian. I don't think that's asking too much. But he was pretty cool otherwise. I hope he shows up on The Flash and they at least address it. Dude's name is Digger, throws boomerangs, how is he not Australian?

Also, Ra's al Ghul should be Arab or Persian or something like that. Call me crazy.

I can't argue with that. Wentworth Miller made believe Smart could be badass.

You Australians. It's the middle of summer there, isn't it? It's goddman 18°F here in New York. I hate all of you vegemite-eating, kangaroo-humping sonsofbitches right now.

Haven't seen my testicles since Christmas Eve.

I did see a lot of gravitas with Jai's character in Divergent, he played sort of an unpredictable hardass with a believable sense of cruelty. Its too bad he dies in the sequel [SPOILE-- ah who am I kidding no one cares]



and judging from this gif, I don't think he fuqs wif dat homo shit

GreenLantern519 - 1/9/2015, 9:21 PM
What exactly is he doing in this picture?
BlackIceJoe
BlackIceJoe - 1/9/2015, 9:23 PM
I'm not really a fan of his, but I will give him the benefit of the doubt that he can do an okay job. I really want to know if Deathstroke will be in the movie though. Plus I wonder if Vixen is still going to show up in this movie. Not everyone in the Suicide Squad was always evil.
DannRamm113
DannRamm113 - 1/9/2015, 9:31 PM
@BlackIceJoe

Rick Flagg isn't exactly evil, he's like the moral center of the team I think.
GreenLantern519
GreenLantern519 - 1/9/2015, 9:34 PM
I'm pretty sure Rick Flagg isn't even a criminal, he's a military guy that is appointed to lead the team or something. I could be wrong though, I'm not exactly familiar with the character.
BlackIceJoe
BlackIceJoe - 1/9/2015, 9:35 PM
@RexDartEskimoSpy - I'm right there with you wanting to see a Ra's al Ghul that is Middle Eastern. Alexander Siddig has been my top choice for a long time. I just am going to have to wait a long time until WB gets the right choice for Teth Adam. Faran Tahir would have been perfect, but hopefully Dwayne Johnson will do a good job instead.
BlackIceJoe
BlackIceJoe - 1/9/2015, 9:38 PM
@dannramm113 - That's true, but I was more talking about the rest of the crew.
DannRamm113
DannRamm113 - 1/9/2015, 9:39 PM
@GreenLantern519

From what I read he is a military man, kinda insane.
DannRamm113
DannRamm113 - 1/9/2015, 9:43 PM
@BlackIceJoe

Well, Flagg isn't a villain, more being forced to be involved. Deadshot can be considered more of an "antihero" or "tragic villain" as he really just does what he does for himself and his daughter. Enchantress is weird and can be both a hero and villain, depending on what kind of mood she is in. Boomerang is just an asshole to everyone. And Harley Quinn is batshit insane. So, seems like a good mix between good people forced to do bad things, bad people, and insane people.
RexDartEskimoSpy
RexDartEskimoSpy - 1/9/2015, 9:55 PM
Alexander Siddig! I remember when he was Siddig el Fadil. Middle Eastern actors have it rough in the West these days if they don't want to play terrorists caracitures. Funny thing is, Ra's al Ghul will always sound like David Warner in my head, and Siddig has that similar proper British elocution that kinda makes you want to smack him. He'd be awesome as Ra's.

And Faran Tahir would make a great Teth Adam. I love the Rock, but he'll have to stretch his limited acting skills way past anything he's done. I was really hoping he'd play Captain Marvel (Or whatever the hell they call him. It's not like he can say "Hi, I'm Shazam! Oh, shit.") He's so perfect for the big red cheese. Just get a kid who looks like little Dwayne Johnston to play Billy. But no, he's gonna be lily white and the brown guy's bad...
