Adam Beach is Slipknot!

Well, he is armed with ropes, so I am not surprised.

By the way, shouldn't this thread be called "Adam Beach is Slipknot" now?
 
I wonder if he's a villain or a militar guy looking for redemption in this incarnation.

Adam Beach with a friend. He is no longer in Toronto. #SuicideSquad

 
This might be a silly question. . .

I know that Slipknot started as a Firestorm villain. How, exactly, did he work that? Did he have magic silver age rope-themed gadgets? Did he sneak around doing silent assassinations, forcing Firestorm to do detective work that neither personality was skilled at?
 
Probably not right out of the gate, but oh yeah, no way do I see him living by the end of the film.
 
Maybe becdause of those very reasons he's the one who surives till the end? :b
 
Would be a neat little twist. People will be expecting him to die, and then he ends up living through til the end.
 
The problem is that, obviously, *somebody* is going to die. Almost certainly multiple somebodies. The list of people they *can* kill is a lot shorter than "everyone", though:

-Deadshot is Will Smith, and arguably the lead of the movie. It is extremely unlikely they'd kill the main "hero" of the team who they've cast a major box office star.

-Harley Quinn is Harley Quinn, and has a ten year contract. She's safe.

-Rick Flagg is not a massively famous character, but his *role* in the team is pretty much required. Also, they were originally going to cast another big name actor, Tom Hardy. I think he's safe, unless they introduce a character who could take over the "minder of the team" role first.

-Killer Croc is a Bat villain. I don't believe for a second they'd be allowed to kill a Bat villain in a non Batman movie, even a minor one.

-Captain Boomerang has less protection, but he's also a major Flash villain, and Flash has his own movie coming up. I'm dubious he'd be allowed as cannon fodder.

That pretty much leaves Slipknot ( "who?" ), El Diablo ( "who?" ), Enchantress ( "who?" ), and Katana ( somewhat more known, but not connected to anything in the pipeline ). If they decided to be tricksy and not kill Slipknot, they'd need to find a body bag somewhere else, and the options are pretty slim.
 
Slipknot is by far the biggest "who?" out of the bunch. El Diablo and Enchantress have a pretty big connection to the Squad, Slipknot doesn't. He is truly a nobody.
 
In the comics Captain Boomerang convinced Slipknot that the explosive bracelets are a bluff and that did not end well for him.
I'm betting that something similar happens in the movie and Katana is not a fan of Boomerang getting one of the Squad members killed.

That's actually a very good theory.
 
Plus, Boomer's usual schtick throughout any appearance on the Squad is his treacherous and untrustworthy nature. Having him be responsible for a members death would serve to kill two birds with one stone.

By the way, can anybody identify what type of pistol Slipknow carries? I'm trying to update his profile on TV Tropes, and it looks like one of those single shot targeting pistols.
 
Welp Slipknot was barely in the second trailer, and also no where to be found when the Suicide Squad was fighting those monster soldier things.
 
Am I the only one who finds it a bit ironic that a guy named "Slipknot" is one of the few normal looking ones on the team? lol
 
Hopefully he gets a few cool moments before he dies. I'm thinking Tattoed Man offs him just like in the comics
 
Lets get predictions on how Slipknot dies.

1. Killed by a monster
2. Killed by another team member
3. Killed trying to escape/head explodes
 
I am also going with 2 or 3....I am thinking boomerang will have something to do with his death and his death will be by implanted bomb.
Not sure if it will be because he tries to escape or if he will be made an example of...
 
He will die like in the comics.Boomer will convinces him that the bombs are fake, he tries to escape and he dies but instead of his arm blowing off its gonna be his head. Proof of this is in trailer 1 when him ands boomer nod at each other like they have a plan. Also Katana slams Boomer on the wall with sword at throat. Boomer did something wrong like....kill a teammate?
 
The "You'll do something that will get you killed" line is said when Captain Boomerang and Slipknot are nodding to each other in the trailer.
