The Suicide Squad Cast Reveal - Predicting EVERY Character
7. Sean Gunn - Rag Doll
DC Comics
While it's doubtful Sean Gunn possesses the contortionist skills necessary to make Rag Doll work on screen, he's no stranger to motion capture and could certainly make the role work given a little movie magic.
In the comics, there have actually been three versions of Rag Doll. One was a Golden Age villain who fought against the Flash, the second emerged during the Silver Age to fight Starman, while the third was the son of the first and is more commonly associated with the Secret Six than the government approved counterparts.
Still, while Ragdoll hasn't joined the Squad in the comics, there's scope to make him a member now. He has a great set of abilities to pool from and while Gunn himself might be a left-field choice for the mask-clad figure, he'd also have the benefit of being the first to portray him in live action.
WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well.
In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
