Deadshot

Everybody hates Will Smith as Deadshot – we don’t, simply because he is a good actor (and we are not looking at his Academy Award nominations).

Leaving that aside, the blitz Suicide Squad trailer shows that he might be an anti-hero or, at least, not a full villain. Yes, he is incarcerated – but his rifle, on which it is written I am the light suggests that he kills only those who deserve it. Pretty much like the DCEU version of the Batman. He may have a secret agenda, but who doesn’t?

If it wasn’t clear until now, he is the unspoken leader of the Suicide Squad. One particular scene from the blitz trailer sees him pushing Diablo over the edge, in order to make him unleash his powers. What happened to Rick Flag and why wasn’t he the one to do it? We believe that a villain will listen to one of his peers instead of one of his capturers.

As believed, Deadshot is pretty skilled with a gun, he’s not 12 years old, he is flirting with Harley (who wouldn’t), and he might have a grudge with Boomerang (again, who wouldn’t).

And the fact that the Comic Con trailer showed him having a daughter makes us believe that, in the end, he will make it out alive and free, reunited with his family.
