Captain Boomerang
Terminator Genisys star Jai Courtney is set to be the first actor to have played Digger Harkness, aka Captain Boomerang, on live-action big-screen. Nick Tarabay has played the character in the television series Arrow. The Flash-nemesis has appeared in a number of animated projects – both big and small screen.
Back in July, Jai Courtney narrated the story behind his beard in Suicide Squad. It was trimmed by none other than the director, David Ayer, himself! Well, we’ve had enough looks at Jai Courtney’s character to have noticed that the facial hair doesn’t look to be touched by a specialist!
Later in October, Jai described his version Boomerang as ‘an absolute bogan, in the purest sense’. He also mentioned that the director’s instruction to him was to bring out his ‘inner shitbag’!
Well, to be frank, Captain Boomerang doesn’t look like a PURE EVIL from what we have seen – stills and trailer footage. Perhaps BAD would be an appropriate word to describe the character in Suicide Squad. At least it doesn’t look as negative as Jai’s character in The Divergent Series movies. However, we haven’t seen the movie yet – so, we don’t know the character completely.
On the next page – another DC character, but a female one!
