TWILIGHT Actor Alex Meraz Joins SUICIDE SQUAD; A Look At Viola Davis On Set

Even though David Ayer's Suicide Squad is currently shooting, we're still finding out about some new cast additions. The latest is Alex Meraz, who played Paul Lahote in the Twilight movies. We also have a set snap taken with Viola Davis, who will play Amanda Waller...

Though they have no idea who he'll be playing, Variety report that Twilight's Alex Meraz (who also starred alongside Jamie Dornan in the British miniseries New Worlds) has joined the cast of Suicide Squad, which is currently shooting in Toronto under director David Ayer. Meraz's character may be a mystery for now, but we do know Academy Award winner Viola David will play Amanda "The Wall" Waller, and a fan managed to get this pic with the actress as she prepared to shoot in downtown Toronto earlier today. As you can see he also met Will Smith (Deadshot), and The Newsroom actor David Harbour who will apparently have a small role in the film.




Who do you think Meraz will play? Suicide Squad also stars Jared Leto as The Joker, Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn, Will Smith as Deadshot, Jai Courtney as Captain Boomerang, Joel Kinnaman as Rick Flag, Jay Hernandez as (we assume) El Diablo, and Cara Delevingne as Enchantress. Common also has an unspecified role. The movie is set for release on August 5, 2016.

What a f*ucking cast. Never head of this guy, but David Harbour is a damn good addition. Glad they changed Viola Davis' hair to the classic.

@MrCBM Harbour is definitely playing a sad sack/baddie. He's so good at it.

Red Hood and Eastwood will be Dick Grayson. Jena Malone will be Oracle.

Just being honest here

Not really excited about Smith's involvement in this movie

But, I'm sure Viola will own the role

Got to be Todd or Grayson! Surely! He clearly has the look & the athletic ability, never seen him act before though, so don't know about that

So I guess Deadshot will have a beard in the movie.

You all do realize that Viola Davis has been wearing her hair natural for a couple years now....so this isn't much of a haircut.
