We’re quickly gearing up for the March 19th premiere of the Suicide Squad on ‘Arrow’ and each piece of information we find out about Amanda Waller’s version just sounds like it will fit perfectly in the show. Not only do we get to see villains attempt to become heroes but it sounds like their introduction is going to play directly into the season finale with how they will be interacting with Arrow’s team. Will that mean we’re going to see a huge face off between the two teams or will there be an evil greater evil descending on Starling City that the two teams will have to push past their differences to overcome?
It’s too early to tell. What it isn’t too early for is some new promotional pictures of the Suicide Squad as well as some images from the episode that they will be debuting in! So let’s take another look at Michael Jai White as Ben Turner/Bronze Tiger, Sean Maher as Mark Scheffer/Shrapnel and Michael Rowe as Floyd Lawton/Deadshot!
Episode Synopsis:
AMANDA WALLER SENDS THE SUICIDE SQUAD OUT ON THEIR FIRST MISSION — Following Slade’s (Manu Bennett) return and his promise to make good on his threat to destroy Oliver’s (Stephen Amell) loved ones, Oliver focuses all his energy on preparing for battle with his former friend. Sarah (Caity Lotz) tries to help but, fearing for her safety, Oliver pushes her away. Meanwhile, Diggle (David Ramsey) is recruited by Amanda Waller (guest star Cynthia Addai-Robinson) and A.R.G.U.S. to stop a warlord (guest star Lee Majdoub) he knew from his time in Afghanistan. Always the solider, Diggle agrees to help. However, he’s not prepared when Amanda introduces him to the rest of the team – Deadshot (guest star Michael Rowe), Bronze Tiger (guest star Michael Jai White) and Shrapnel (guest star Sean Maher), all criminals he and Arrow helped put away. Lyla (guest star Audrey Marie Anderson) defends the team and explains the world is a complicated place, but Diggle isn’t sure he agrees. When the mission takes a dangerous turn, Diggle is forced to make a difficult decision.
Arrow’s ‘Suicide Squad’ is set to air on The CW on March 19th.
