Deadshot

The biggest drawback of having Will Smith portraying Deadshot is not the lack of acting chops. Will Smith has proven time and time again that he can become the characters he plays. Instead, the downside is that Deadshot won’t be wearing his iconic mask all throughout the movie.

But, at least, Suicide Squad will show us his weapon of choice, the wrist mounted firearms. Of course, he also uses some other types of weapons in the Suicide Squad trailer.

From what we see, Deadshot is the one character who is the most contemplative – probably because he has everything to lose if the mission doesn’t succeed. And this also puts him on a collision course with the official leader of the Suicide Squad, namely Rick Flag. From what we can guess, Deadshot doesn’t really approve the tactics of Flag. And he is right, since Flag’s soldiers end up enemies when the villain is revealed.

Here’s what Will Smith said: “As the movie opens, [Deadshot] has a really big career score. He’s looking to turn over a new leaf with his daughter after the hit, but it goes wrong. It goes terribly, terribly wrong. And it lands him in [prison] Belle Reve for life.” Of course, Will Smith also said that Deadshot is a bit attracted by Harley Quinn…
