Anthony Mackie As Deadshot!
Back in 2002, Anthony Mackie made his debut in Hollywood with a negative role – the role of a rapper named Papa Doc – in Eminem starrer 8 Mile. He’s been playing Sam Wilson, aka Falcon, in the MCU since Captain America: The Winter Soldier, and according to some theories, he is set to take up the mantle of Captain America in future.
Whatever be his future in the MCU, we believe that he could have pulled off a decent version of Floyd Lawton, aka Deadshot, in the DC Extended Universe, if not as good as Will Smith’s version. The character is bad, but not evil in this universe – maybe be an anti-hero of some kind and not a supervillain actually.
Frank Grillo As Captain Boomerang!
We thought of ‘giving’ Frank Grillo – the actor who plays Brock Rumlow, aka Crossbones in the MCU – the role of Michael Shannon’s General Zod. But why do we always need him to play such a hardcore baddie? Let’s imagine him saying the line that we heard Jai Courtney uttering in the Suicide Squad Comic Con trailer to Margot Robbie’s Harley Quinn – “Y’know what they say about the crazy ones?†That’s what we want him to do! So, we have picked him for the role of Captain Boomerang!
