Character profiles
Deadshot
Will Smith plays Deadshot, aka Floyd Lawton. Deadshot is a career mafia hit man and possibly the best marksman in the world. A stone cold pro who works alone, trusting no one, his one soft spot is his young daughter, Zoe, whom both Amanda Waller and Colonel Rick Flag use as means to exploit the precision gunman into joining their mission.
Harley Quinn
Margot Robbie plays Harley Quinn, aka Dr. Harleen Quinzel, a beautiful young psychiatrist who treats the criminally insane patients at Arkham Asylum, including The Joker…until he turns the tables on her. As crazy as she is desirable, Harley views life as one big, chaotic joke.
Rick Flag
Joel Kinnaman plays Colonel Rick Flag. Amanda Waller’s second-in-command, Flag is the best Tier One Shooter the armed forces has made, which makes him even more suspicious of a homegrown cannon like Deadshot. A military man through and through, Flag is in charge of keeping this disparate group in line.
Enchantress
Cara Delevingne plays Dr. June Moone/Enchantress. Possessed by Enchantress—a diaphanous, ethereal, wickedly beautiful witch as old as time—June Moone struggles to hold on to her humanity while being overpowered by the seductress. [blackout]And as long as Amanda Waller quite literally holds Enchantress’s heart, June remains a servant to both women, and the siren remains at the whim of her captor until she can rise to reclaim all that she has lost.[/blackout]
Captain Boomerang
Jai Courtney plays Captain Boomerang. An Australian roughneck, Boomerang is devious, scheming and ruthless—and that’s his good side. Utilizing an assortment of his trademark weapon—razor-sharp, incendiary and electrically charged boomerangs—his wise-cracking attitude and short fuse often irritate the other Squad members and escalate the already dangerous situation.
Killer Croc
Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje plays Killer Croc. A huge man for whom evolution is working backward, his square jaw, cracked and scaly skin and toothy grin evoke the most fearsome of reptiles, but it’s his skill at surviving and maneuvering in dark, dank, filthy sewers that make him a deadly foe when he’s in his element.
Diablo
Jay Hernandez plays Diablo. His face bearing a tattooed skull, this one-time gang member can create and manipulate fire to do his bidding. But Diablo is haunted by the misdeeds of his past, and if he allows his temper to flare, there’s no telling how much destruction he might cause.
Katana
Karen Fukuhara plays Katana. Dressed in Samurai-inspired, street fighter garb and ballistic facemask, Katana wields the Soultaker, a large Samurai sword that traps the souls of all its victims. A cold-blooded killer, she serves as a member of the Squad, but is also there as an associate of Colonel Rick Flag to keep the others in line.
Slipknot
Adam Beach plays Slipknot. A master in the use of elaborate ropes and tackle, including unbreakable ones, this trained assassin can climb anything.
Joker
Jared Leto plays the Joker. Chaos personified, The Joker is violent, incredibly dangerous, and revels in every single moment of the chaos he creates. Batman’s greatest, most unpredictable adversary, he is also Arkham Asylum’s most infamous resident, as well as the love of Squad member Harley Quinn’s life.
Amanda Waller
Viola Davis plays Amanda Waller. A hard-as-nails career U.S. intelligence officer who makes bad things happen to bad people, Waller is the secret commander of the Suicide Squad and cares only about the operation at hand—everyone is expendable when serving the greater good. She puts the inaugural Squad together in order to attempt an impossible mission, ensuring herself easy patsies to take the blame and zero personal accountability if things go wrong.
