Suicide Squad (2016)

David Ayer's 'Suicide Squad' Will Be 'Dirty Dozen With Supervillains'
quote:
David Ayer has been a busy man lately. The writer/director has turned out End Of Watch, Sabotage and now Fury is little over two action-packed years. Next up is the serious upscale that comes with commandeering DC’s freshly-announced superhero movie, Suicide Squad, and Ayer is ready for the challenge.
quote:
“Fury whetted my appetite for a bigger canvas and this idea of world creation,” he told Empire. “You can do amazing things as a filmmaker if you have the proper tools, and those are time and money.”
Money and time he’ll have plenty of – Suicide Squad is scheduled as the second DC behemoth to hit the big screen, following Batman V Superman in two years’ time – and, although he couldn’t say much, his vision for the movie should reassure fans. “I can say that it’s a Dirty Dozen with supervillains,” he said. “Then I can ask the question, ‘Does a movie really need good guys?’”
Maybe not, and on paper at least, Suicide Squad’s bad guys, antipodean asshat Captain Boomerang especially, can be an unsavory bunch. So how do you go about casting an Australian racist? “Like one would cast any other role,” Ayer rebutted. “I don’t know what I’m going to do. I’m going to do what I do in my typical fever dream of directing.”
It may be a departure from the gritty, real-world settings he's delved into so far in his career, but Ayer is relishing the leap into the comic-book galaxy. “I love the passion [comic-book fans] have for these characters and these worlds. I think there’s something incredible about the comic genre and technology has finally caught up with pen and ink to render these fantastic worlds in a way that feels believable and visceral to audiences. It’s a secular religion in that regards. The mythology that these characters represent – the idea of them as fallen gods on Earth – is intriguing to me. I can’t wait to start exploring those corridors.”

Jesse Eisenberg’s Lex Luthor Joining DC Comics Pic ‘Suicide Squad’?
quote:
On the DC Comics-heavy slate that Warner Bros laid out for Wall Street last week, the film Suicide Squad was the only one lacking a clear identification to the superhero-themed franchises that will dominate the slate through 2020. That might change. I hear that Warner Bros is in discussions with Jesse Eisenberg to take the Lex Luthor character he will unveil in Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice, and transfer the villain character to Suicide Squad.

Ayer did so well with End of Watch and Fury. Pity, he's taking a superhero movie now. That's the nature of our times, I guess. . .

I'm hearing they're looking at the chic from Wolf of Wall Street for Harley Quin. I think she's perfect.

She is perfect in general

Have to hear her say "Puddin" first.

yep, they're also trying hard for Tom Hardy and Will Smith. Would make for a great cast.

I also just read Ryan Gosling is being sought after. If they can get all of those actors, wow.

There was video posted, but it looks like Warner is killing the YouTube links pretty quickly.
Sounds like Robbie has the Harley voice down pretty well.

Some sites have a ton of pics where the tattoos are clearly visible. Aside from the damaged tattoo on his forehead, I really liked the new look.

links to video and more pics?
Posted on 5/18/15 at 10:41 am to RLDSC FAN
Can you give a link? I can't find any. All of the videos have been removed and the pics are from far away.
Posted on 5/18/15 at 10:48 am to RLDSC FAN
I've heard people say they've seen the video and could see zero tattoos.

I haven't seen any tattoos, but it wouldn't bother me if he had them.
Harley sounds spot on, even in her Harleen persona.
The purple suit and the purple car look great.
Joker's mannerisms seem very in-character for the Joker.
So far, so good.

I saw it on the superherohype message boards. Also, cosmicbooknews.com.

fricking love it! I see no tattoos. All that internet bitching for nothing.
ETA: Yea, I'm wrong. Very disappointing.
