FILM 1560: SUICIDE SQUAD
TRIVIA: The majority of the cast
and crew got the tattoo "SKWAD" in honor of this film. The tattoos
were even applied by some of the cast members, Margot Robbie and Will Smith.
Tom Hardy was originally
cast as Rick Flag but dropped out to due The Revenant (2015). Hardy
had previously played Bane in The Dark
Knight Rises (2012), who was a former member of the Suicide Squad in
the comic books. Hardy later expressed his regret at leaving the role, given he
did not want to lose the work.
To try and find the perfect Joker
laugh, Jared Leto publicly tried
different laughs in New York City and Toronto to see which ones made people the
most uncomfortable.
In May 2016, Warner Bros. announced
that Margot Robbie would be producing and reprising her role as Harley Quinn in
an upcoming Untitled Harley Quinn Project. Not much has been revealed about the
project, but it is rumored to be focused on the female heroes and villains of
the DC Universe.
Jared Leto got so immersed
in playing The Joker that he wouldn't break out of character on set even when
he wasn't filming. He even sent his fellow cast members "Joker-like"
presents: a live rat to Margot Robbie
and bullets to Will Smith,
a soiled Playboy magazine to Adewale
Akinnuoye-Agbaje and a dead hog, anal beads and used condoms for the
whole crew. Scott
Eastwood commented that Leto frightened him at times with his
behavior, and Smith mentioned that he actually never met the real Leto.
Ryan Gosling was sought
out first for the role of The Joker. He reportedly turned down the role because
he did not want to sign on for a multi-picture deal that the studio was
requiring.
Ben Affleck is the first
actor to portray Batman in two movies helmed by different directors. He is also
the first actor to portray Batman in two different movies within the same year.
Viola Davis read M.E.
Thomas' autobiography "Confessions of a Sociopath" to prepare for her
role as Amanda Waller.
