Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje Joins SUICIDE SQUAD As BATMAN Villain 'Killer Croc'
The cast of Suicide Squad continues to grow, and a very exciting casting addition has now been made in the form of Thor: The Dark World's Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje. Who is he playing? Classic Batman villain, Killer Croc! He's not the only new addition though, so read on for details...
If you thought having the likes of The Joker, Harley Quinn, Deadshot, and Steve Trevor in the same movie was already huge enough, think again! Another major casting addition has been made to Suicide Squad today with The Wrap reporting that Lost and Pompeii star Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje will play Killer Croc, a monstrous member of Batman's rogues gallery. They've also confirmed that Scott Eastwood will appear, but don't have word on who he or another new casting addition - Karen Fukuhara - will be starring as. Jesse Eisenberg is also still expected to reprise his Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice role as Lex Luthor, and Akinnuoye-Agbaje joins a cast which includes Will Smith, Jared Leto, Margot Robbie, Jai Courtney, Cara Delevingne, Joel Kinnaman, Viola Davis, and a number of others. What do you guys think about these latest casting additions?
