Suicide Squad: 8 Things Everybody Missed In The Trailer
6. Slipknot Is With The FBI
One of the more obvious-not-obvious takeaways from the trailer is that Slipknot probably isn't long for the DCEU. No, not because his "power" of being good with ropes is utterly rubbish (although that should be a massive clue), but because after a few shots early on Adam Beach is nowhere to be seen - he's at the formation of the team and in a couple of action beats, but then in moments presumably from later on in the movie the squad's numbers have been massively reduced. Nice knowing you, Rope Boy. While it's a shame what is probably going to be one of the biggest deaths of the movie has been given away, it's very possible Christopher Weiss isn't actually a full, card-carrying member of the squad. Whereas Deadshot, El Diablo, Killer Croc, Harley Quinn and Captain Boomerang all seem to come from Belle Reve, with suitable transportation methods (body bags and water tanks), he's seem coming out of a jeep escorted by FBI agents. Of course, he may just be outside help - a Bureau prisoner called in to fill out the numbers - but he's still unlikely to be as integrated with the team as the other cellmates.
