The latest addition to the cast of James Gunn's The Suicide Squad is an actor who's been fan-cast as a multitude of superheroes for many years now, Nathan Fillion.
Deadline reports that the Castle star, who has worked with Gunn on several of his previous projects including Guardians of the Galaxy, has signed on to join the already very impressive ensemble, but his role is being kept under wraps for the time being.
Fillion joins fellow new Task Force X recruits Idris Elba, John Cena, David Dastmalchian, Daniela Melchior and Storm Reid, along with returning stars Margot Robbie, Joel Kinnaman, Jai Courtney and Viola Davis. Plot details remain under wraps, but we may get a better idea of what to expect very soon as production is expected to commence in September.
The Suicide Squad is set for release on August 6, 2021.
