Joel Kinnaman The Suicide Squad
He appeared as Colonel Rick Flag, the field leader of the Suicide Squad in the 2021 American superhero film The Suicide Squad. Flag was the character that changed the most from the first Suicide Squad (2016), according to Gunn, with Kinnaman describing this version as sillier, less jaded, more naive, and funnier. Kinnaman, according to Gunn, was not used to comedic acting but “quickly demonstrated a talent and an affinity” for it. Flag begins the film with Amanda Waller sending a Suicide Squad team as a decoy, and a deleted scene would have explained that she did this because he made fun of an ugly shirt she was wearing. Flag, according to Gunn, has grown tired of being taken advantage of and doing bad things, which leads him to disobey Waller and be killed by Peacemaker.
