Suicide Squad may not have had the critical reception some fans were hoping for but one thing it did have was great characterization for the villains of the DCEU. One villain that’s a Squad mainstay yet didn’t see the screen was King Shark. New concept art reveals what he may have looked like in the film.
Here’s a glimpse of King Shark in his “vacation dad” attire:
This shark-dude was ready for some sun and some waves, brah.
The cinematic Suicide Squad we got consisted of Deadshot, Harley Quinn, Captain Boomerang, Slipknot (RIP), El Diablo and Killer Croc. Not to mention Rick Flag and Katana, whose sword traps the souls of its victims. With the inclusion of Killer Croc, it makes sense why this character was cut completely, though I probably would’ve prefered King Shark.
What do you think of this look? Would it have worked in the film or would you rather he shows up in the sequel? Let us know what you think @superbromovies on Twitter!
