Last week a report surfaced that a SUICIDE SQUAD spinoff featuring Margot Robbie's Harley Quinn is in the works, and according to We Got This Covered, Warner Bros. is also eyeing solo films for several other Task Force X members. Which ones, you ask? Obviously nothing is set in stone yet, but the site's source claims that the studio is very high on Jared Leto's The Joker and Jai Courtney's Captain Boomerang.

They’re going to do a sequel for sure, and the recently announced spinoff with Margot Robbie has got everyone excited, too, but their plans don’t end there. The studio is feeling very confident in the property. They think it’s going to be a really big hit and they think audiences are going to fall in love with these characters.

I’ve heard more than a few talks of giving some of the other Task Force X members their own spinoffs, and like the Harley Quinn one, these films would open the door for a ton of new DC characters to show up.

The Joker is a definite possibility for a spinoff, and Jared [Leto] seems up for it from what I’ve been told. They’re also really hot on Jai Courtney’s character Boomerang right now. Nothing’s set in stone yet, but you’re definitely going to be seeing a lot more of these guys in the years to come.”

I wouldn't be surprised if Warner Bros. is also considering a solo outing for Will Smith's Deadshot, since Smith is still a big name actor, and the rumor is his character may have a major role in the next Batman flick. Which SUICIDE SQUAD member would you like to see get a solo movie?

SUICIDE SQUAD will be in theaters on August 5, 2016.
