/Film has the scoop that Warner Brothers have revealed the cast to Suicide Squad.

Jared Leto is The Joker, Will Smith is Deadshot, Tom Hardy is Rick Flagg, Margot Robbie is Harley Quinn, Jai Courtney is Boomerang, and Cara Delevinge is Enchantress, according to the site.

David Ayer (Fury) will direct.

The movie is expected to shoot this coming spring, and with a cast this big, they are showing Marvel that they are done screwing around. It’s been described as The Dirty Dozen of superhero movies, and we’ll just have to wait and see if that holds true.

What do you guys think of the casting? It’ll be nice to see Hardy actually act as opposed to always being behind a mask as Bane. With that said, what about Will Smith as Deadshot? That’s a weird one. People seem to hate Leto, although I know Brad is excited to see him play The Joker.

I can see Jared Leto doing a good job in that role, but I think Will Smith would be awful in any comic book based role personally.

I used to mistake Jared Leto for Jake Gyllenhaal back in the day. Ironically they've both ended up being pretty good actors.
2-0-Sixx @2-0-Sixx , you see that Jake Gyllenhaal is going to be in a boxing movie?

I'm not a fan of the Suicide Squad or anything (do those even exist?) but it seems like they're piecing together a Suicide Squad based on a bunch of different Suicide Squads from different iterations of the team... Is this the case? This sounds like it's going to be as convoluted as the X-Men franchise has become, except it's going to happen right off the bat.
