The Suicide Squad Cast Reveal - Predicting EVERY Character

3. Juan Diego Botto - Peacemaker

Inferior 5 Peacemaker
DC Comics

It's tempting to suggest that Argentinian actor Juan Diego Botto could be playing a character that he somewhat resembles, since his profile isn't that well known outside of Spanish language film and TV, but there is a possibility here that fits one of his most well-known English-speaking roles.

In 2016, he starred in Good Behaviour, in which he played Javier a charming hitman, so he has previous with slightly darker material. Putting that together with the casting rumours that came out around the time of John Cena's casting and it could be that he's the one playing Peacemaker.

He's an interesting character, in that he is so committed to the idea of peace that he's willing to break the law and kill to preserve it and you can definitely see someone like Botto playing him as an enigmatic, darkly charming type rather than just a bruising jock.
