The characters are well-drawn antagonists in that movie, and David Ayer’s cast did a solid job of bringing Harley Quinn (Margot Robbie), Deadshot (Will Smith) and Amanda Waller (Viola Davis) into the fold.
It’s very true about Suicide Squad.
I’ll continue to argue that Jared Leto missed the mark on his interpretation of The Joker, but if future DCEU movies want to make use of the other Squad characters, I think the blueprint is in place.
It’s refreshing to hear such candor from Jon Berg and Geoff Johns, who opened up to Variety and talked about the mistakes made in the DCEU that, we hope, have the universe on the right path.
