Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League - 10 Things It Must Do

6. Feature A Good Voice Cast

Part of what enabled the Batman Arkham games to make its players actually feel like they were within the Bat-verse is that they featured arguably the most recognisable voices for the characters - Mark Hamill was the Joker, Kevin Conroy was the Batman - it made the games feel like an extension of the beloved Batman: The Animated Series.

Suicide Squad should take a similar approach and draw its voice cast from other adaptations.

Harley Quinn has an ongoing animated series at the minute so getting some or all of that cast to voice their counterparts in the game would make for some wonderful cross-promotion for DC's marketing teams. Yet, the character has also enjoyed being voiced by a variety of other well-known actors such as Jenny Slate in The Lego Batman Movie or Tara Strong in various projects, not to mention BTAS' Arleen Sorkin (who worked with Rocksteady on the Arkham games).

There is less precedent for other members of the Squad, but just imagine if Rocksteady was able to get the likes of Will Smith to play Deadshot or Joe Manganiello for Deathstroke. Those are probably long shots but it would be brilliant if it happened.
