The Suicide Squad also known as task force x is a team composed of supervillians that have been imprisoned by the U.S. government and in return for commuted sentences they will have to carry out high classified missions.

Government will deny any knowledge of their existence in the event of any supervillain attack or capture. Director David Ayer and DC Comics will team up to give us one of the most highly awaited movies for next year. 

Six members have already been officially announced and the actors leading the roles are almost as surprising as the characters chosen to make up the Suicide Squad. We have Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn, Cara Delevigne as Enchantress, Tom Hardy as Rick Flag, Will Smith as Deadshot and Jared Leto as The Joker.

There is plenty to be pumped about. Basically, they are like the original Expendables. Some of the cast are seasoned actors while others are fairly new but it makes for a good cast.Coming in with the role of Rick Flag, Tom Hardy is the only one on this list with a comic book history, famously playing Bane in The Dark Knight Rises.

Deadshot played by Will Smith is known as the leader of the squad.Those familiar with DC Comics would know Deadshot well. I imagine that Deadshot will be playing second fiddle to Leto's character Joker who let's face it, always steals the show. Oprah Winfrey is rumored to play the role of Amanda Waller but so far those rumors are unsubstantiated.

The story for Suicide Squad's plot is still under wraps but production is sheduled to begin in April in Toronto for a release of August 2016. This will be one of the most highly anticipated  movies for next year.
