10 Scenes You Need To See In Suicide Squad’s Extended Cut

After months and months of growing hype, Suicide Squad finally arrived in August and was met with... critical derision and widespread disappointment from fans. Instead of the super-fun spectacle that the trailers promised, the movie was a muddled hot mess. There just seemed to be too many key story and character beats missing for it to work. Something which was proven to be true when it was revealed that Suicide Squad had been entirely recut late in the day. Oh well, fans thought, at least we have the Extended Cut to save the movie, right?

In addition to Harley’s psychoanalysis scene, this is yet another new sequence that fleshes out various members of Task Force X in a satisfying manner.

In the theatrical cut, Deadshot tells Harley to “stay evil, dollface” and to “spread the word” about their escape plan. We’re then left to assume that she does. In the Extended Cut, we actually get to see this scene, which results in some interesting new interactions. In particular, it gives Captain Boomerang more to do.

First, Harley lets Boomerang know about their plan, who then goes and tells El Diablo. True to his character, he’s not interested – to him, they don’t deserve to escape for the crimes they’ve committed. Undeterred, Harkness goes to chat with Killer Croc, ignoring Diablo’s warnings to be careful of the cannibal. Boomerang then gets thrown across the alley for his troubles.

Just a few more low-key scenes like this was all we’re asking for, as they do add some welcome depth to the film.
