Suicide Squad 2: Every Confirmed (And Rumoured) Character So Far

16. Daniela Melchior As Ratcatcher (Rumoured)

The Suicide Squad
DC Comics

In a similar way to her cast mates Joaquín Cosío, and Juan Diego Botto, Daniela Melchior is relatively unknown outside of her home country. The Brazilian actress will make her first mainstream appearance in The Suicide Squad in 2021, and if the rumours are true, she will be portraying Ratcatcher.

The character, typically a male in the comics, is most notably a villain in Batman's extensive rogues gallery and has the unique ability to control an army of rats. Immediately, this seems like another goofy character not to be taken too seriously, but look at Ant-Man. Marvel Studios have managed to create a genuinely compelling character and franchise out of a man who controls ants, so why shouldn't DC be able to do something similar with a woman who controls rats?

Of course, DC don't have Paul Rudd, and they aren't looking to make a Ratcatcher movie, but there is no reason Melchior's character couldn't be a huge asset to The Suicide Squad.
