10 Actors Totally Wasted In 2021 Movies

10. Jai Courtney - The Suicide Squad

Now, admittedly you have every right to glance at this entry and scoff at your humble writer. For the fact that James Gunn had the sheer audacity to do away with a large section of this pre-announced cast in the opening stages of his soft-sequel to the lacklustre 2016 Suicide Squad was enough to elicit roars of laughter throughout cinemas the world over.

However, that Jai Courtney's Captain Boomerang was caught in that initial sh*t storm on the beach is still a rather difficult pill to swallow for some. Of the many elements that simply did not click during David Ayer's studio-butchered attempt at unveiling the squad, Courtney's wise-cracking, sharp-edged-boomerang-wielding criminal was one of the few that did. And fans were positively stoked at the potential of him being handled with care by Gunn in this follow-up.

Sure, he still made the most of what little time he shared with us in the riot of a DC entry, but seeing him massacred by helicopter blades was a seriously devastating blow to anyone who was geared up to see Courtney having the time of his life with the rest of the gang for an extended Suicide spell.
