James Gunn Teases “The Suicide Squad” McFarlane Toys Release

Filmmaker James Gunn shared an image teasing the upcoming McFarlane Toys figures based on “The Suicide Squad” characters. Gunn, who wrote and directed the upcoming DC Comics film from Warner Bros. Pictures, is often our beset source of info on any of his projects.

It would appear that each of the main crew- John Cena as Peacemaker, Idris Elba as Bloodsport, Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn, and David Dastmalchian as Polka-Dot Man- will come with a build-a-figure peace to create King Shark, who is voiced by Sylvester Stallone.

We don’t really know anything else about the figures yet, other than a likely October/November release date.

Margot Robbie is back as Harley Quinn, Joel Kinnaman as Rick Flag, Viola Davis as Amanda Waller, and Jai Courtney as Captain Boomerang. Joining them this time are Idris Elba as Bloodsport, John Cena as Peacemaker (who’s also getting his own spinoff series),  Peter Capaldi as Thinker, David Dastmalchian as Polka-Dot Man, Daniela Melchior as Rat Catcher II, Michael Rooker as Savant, Alice Braga as SolSoria, Pete Davidson as Blackguard, Joaquín Cosio as General Mateo Suarez, Juan Diego Botto as Luna, Storm Reid as Tyla, Nathan Fillion as T.D.K., Steve Agee as King Shark, Sean Gunn as Weasel, Mayling Ng as Mongal, Flula Borg as Javelin, Jennifer Holland as Emilia Harcourt, and Tinashe Kajese as Flo Crawley. Sylvester Stallone is King Shark! We’re still not sure who Taika Waititi is playing.

“The Suicide Squad” is set to release on HBO Max and in theaters on August 6th, 2021.
