Good news DC fans! A new DC Comic film adaptation is in the works and these characters are not your average team, in fact, they are a group of criminals working for the government, and they call themselves the Suicide Squad.
According to reports from Screen Rant, the Suicide Squad movie will be produced Dan Lin and a proposed script has been made by Justin Marks. Unfortunately, the website also reported that the movie was put on hold after the Justice League movie.
Collider has reported that Dan Lin shared his thoughts on the Suicide Squad movie.
“[Suicide Squad] has a script from Justin Marks, but that is on a hold right now. I think Warner Brothers wants to finish their A-list stories first and then we’ll talk about stories like Suicide Squad.”
“I understand that people looking at making films based on the likes of Suicide Squad,Booster Gold, Deathstroke and even Team 7 have been told that they have to partner or work with Goyer as producer.”
Screen Rant mentioned that the possible members of the Suicide Squad in the movie are Harley Quinn, Deadshot, King Shark, and Captain Boomerang.

The TV version of the team has already appeared in CW’s TV series Arrow, and there is already a reference of Harley Quinn within the show. Arrow’s executive producer and writer Andrew Kreisberg teased whether Harley will appear in the show or not.
“I don’t know about [Harley Quinn's appearance]…There are very few things we’ve asked DC Comics for that we haven’t gotten. That was something you asked for, and what you saw is a compromise that Geoff Johns and I came up with. To even get that much was a thrill for us. I know that they may have other plans for her, but it was certainly an Easter egg that thrilled us. But the Suicide Squad will definitely be back. Whether we see the ‘deranged female killer’ we saw before, we’ll have to wait and see.”
The Suicide Squad are a group of super villains that work under the supervision of United States Government as expendable soldiers. They work under Amanda Waller and perform missions that are highly classified and dangerous, hence the name of their group.
