    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      As for how director James Gunn got Sylvester Stallone to voice the role of Nanaue/King Shark, it didn't take a whole lot of convincing. Gunn said to him, "I wrote this role for you in The Suicide Squad. It won't take too much of your time." Stallone replied, "Oh yeah?" To which Gunn said, "Yeah. It's a big, kinda chubby, human-eating shark." To which Stallone said, "Anything for you, brother."

    • Quotes
      • Young Cleo: Why rats, Papa?
      • Ratcatcher: Rats are the lowliest and most despised of all creatures, my love. But if they have purpose, so do we all.
    • Crazy credits
      SPOILER: There is a scene at the end of the closing credits: Waller's aides Economos and Harcourt visit Peacemaker in hospital. This leads into Peacemaker (2022).

    FAQ4

    • Is this a sequel mission to Suicide Squad (2016) or a remake?
    • Did Blackguard really manage on his own while in prison to contact the Corto Maltesian military about the mission on their soil, or did Waller allow him to make contact to as to make the distraction for the other team more effective?
    • How is Harley Quinn part of The Suicide Squad? After what happened in Birds of Prey. The events of that movie wasn't even mentioned.
