With the inclusion of three major bat-villains in the form of The Joker (Jared Leto), Harley Quinn (Margot Robbie), and Deadshot (Will Smith), it was always a thought in the back of everybody's heads that Ben Affleck's Batman would pop into David Ayer's villain heavy Suicide Squad for a brief appearance . Well, now it seems we were all on the right track, with the actor snapped on the Toronto set in his best Bruce Wayne attire.
With information about Warner Bros.'s Batman v Superman follow-up kept under lock and key, there's no way of knowing the extent of Affleck's involvement. Will we see him come face to face with The Joker for the first time? That's entirely possible, but I have a feeling that would be better kept for a solo Batman movie. Sure, in this time line, an older Bats would have met the Clown Prince of Crime before, but their first on screen meeting should be bigger that what is more than likely a cameo
No matter what his role in Suicide Squad will be, an appearance from Batman will definitely put more eyes on the project. It may feature DC Comic's most beloved villain, but a team of anti heroes will always be a hard sell for main stream audiences, so having The Dark Knight involved would make it a bit easier to swallow.
Suicide Squad is set for release August 5th 2016.
