New Amanda Waller centric trailer.

Love what I'm seeing of Davis as Waller. Whatever this movie turns out to be, it's obvious they NAILED the casting and the character perfectly and we'd better see a LOT of her in the DCEU.
 
Waller seems like she could be as much of an antagonist as the unnamed Adversary.
 
You know what I thought would be really cool?

What if KG beast (from BvS) is secretly another sqaud member that's there just so Amanda can demonstrate the head explosive.

Just like what happened to beast in assault on Arkham.

Seems like a missed opportunity if it doesn't happen, but we would have probably heard something by now

Good God, is it weird to say that Viola has extremely sexy arms?
 
Well, I find her really attractive, so no, it's not weird. :woot: Just look how charming she is... https://youtu.be/TmO2ArIRhQs?t=38s :yay:

She's so charismatic as Waller, this film has so great cast overall, cannot wait to see them all in action.

Well, I'll be damned... I do find her sexy now. I do have a habit of ending up with women that are a bit... handful. Almost every relationship was a threat to my life. :p
 
Yeah, I think out of all the casting decisions they made with this film, this one was the one I was most excited about because for me, there was NO other choice for Waller than Davis. CCH Pounder and all the other names people brought up don't hold a candle to her, IMO. I have no doubt she's going to own the **** out of this role. The movie around her had just better be worthy.
 
From what I've seen, Waller could be an absolutely terrible, unpleasant person...and at the same time, there's no one else I'd rather have calling the shots where the rising metahuman threat is concerned.

That's how she's supposed to be, not the outright villain that she's sometime portrayed as. The DCAU is still the best portrayal of the character I've ever seen.

Likely depends on the details, though. For instance, if it turns out she has taken, or plans to take, action against metahumans who *don't* have antisocial activities. . . well then, she's just another well-placed government mutant-hater. I don't *think* they are going that direction, though.

Yeah. I hope they don't go full nutbar with her like they did on Arrow. "There are about 20 mercenaries with enhanced abilities attacking people in Starling City. LET'S JUST NUKE THE PLACE AND BE DONE WITH IT."
 
I remember the first Squad mission they had on Arrow. It basically ended with Amanda sending out a drone strike after they already completed the mission.
 
Arrow Amanda Waller was basically the most evil person in the setting, prior to "I want to commit cosmic omnicide" Zoom. Sure, Darkh wanted to cause nuclear armageddon, but this plan correlated in a rational way with his intended goals and desires. I'm pretty sure Waller would have triggered nuclear armageddon for far, far stupider and more petty and malign reasons.
 
The best thing about this movie... She is the ANTI-fury of this universe.

I like the way [BLACKOUT]she dispatched her staff when rick flag came to get her out.[/BLACKOUT]
 
Yeah she is mean as **** in this movie.
 
She was even better than I thought in the role. Tough as nails and cold as ice.
 
She was everything I ever wanted in a live action Amanda Waller. Viola is a film deity. I love her.
 
I'd like to see Viola as Waller in a future DC film, perhaps Justice League or the solo Batman film.
