Accompanying material

Suicide Squad is a Atlas Entertainment, DC Comics, DC Entertainment, Dune Entertainment, and Warner Bros. Film. This film follows a group of misfit supervillains who are recruited by a government agency to save the world. The underground tunnels served as the location of the cell for Killer Cros (Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaue): the tunnel entrance to G Building held the bars to Killer Croc’s cell and the sewer cap in front of this entrance was the top of the cell. During filming in June of 2015, Jared Leto tested out potential “Joker laughs” on unsuspecting Torontonians, experimenting with different variations while out in public to see which made those nearby most uncomfortable.
