She looks the part. But I can't say I'm really familiar with either actor. I read a rumor Will Smith might be Digger. Not sure about that. I wish they would've stuck with the Ostrander era team. From the inclusion of Harley and the Joker rumors I'm starting to fear this is trending into the FF remake territory.

I read the Will Smith rumor, too, but I hope it's only that. To cast an Australian actor as Deadshot and an African American actor as Captain boomerang makes no ****ing sense.

Ssshhh it's just a rumor. It's just a rumor. I refuse to believe otherwise. For me it's "Why Will Smith of all people?" As Captain Boomerang? I'll pass. As an agent to control the alien population that passes by Earth, sure.

I'm very pessimistic about the get go of this movie and I just can't see this one coming together and onto the big screen. If it does, I will wait until the movie comes out six months later and see it on the big screen for $3.00 anytime.

According to Variety this is the official finalized cast list:

Jared Leto – The Joker

Will Smith – Deadshot

Tom Hardy – Rick Flagg

Margot Robbie – Harley Quinn

Jai Courtney – Boomerang

Cara Delevingne – Enchantress


I can totally get behind that.
Just watched Wolf of Wall Street last night, BTW, and I think Margot Robbie will make a great "real world" Harley Quinn. She does a Long Island accent as well as any of my relatives, and while she probably won't win an Oscar any time soon, she's a better actress than a lot of people who get put in movies these days.
This could actually be good.

Will Smith as Deadshot? Ugh.

[S. Griffin]

He wouldn't have been my first choice for Floyd or even my tenth, but I think he could pull it off.

[packerbacker180]

I don't get Joker being here. I mean, I understand wanting to have a marquee character involved for name recognition, but I don't get him as choice for the team.

[S. Griffin]

I'm guessing that much like with Assault on Arkham he might not be on the team, while still having a prominent role in the film. Might even be a minor role.
