BContinuing on from the Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice narrative, the world is reeling from the death of Superman. Without the Man of Steel, the world leaders are concerned that the metahuman threat puts the human race at risk. The answer to this problem comes from US agent and metahuman expert Amanda Waller (Viola Davis) who puts forward her Suicide Squad project. The concept is bringing together some of the world’s worst villains, manipulating them to go against their own personal interests and using them to keep the rest of the meta-humans in check. With the assistance of super soldier Rick Flag (Joel Kinnaman), they work to motivate Deadshot (Will Smith), Harley Quinn (Margot Robbie), Boomerang (Jai Courtney), Diablo (Jay Hernandez) and Killer Croc (Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje) to do these high-risk missions for the sake of the greater good. Once the brutish bunch is reluctantly recruited, they are sent on their inaugural mission. It does not take too long for the team to realise that this battle is not what they were expecting. This mission eventually contains personal aspects that will affect all of them. This Suicide Squad must determine what their true motivations are to serve and if it is all worth the risk D i s c u s s i o n p o i n t s f o r R e e l D i a l o g u e
