[[wysiwyg_imageupload:18839:]]

Joe Manganiello was recently attached to star in the series created by the writer of American Horror story with Scream Queen.

However, now it’s learned that Manganiello has exited the role, with Oliver Hudson as his replacement.

It’s being reported the reason is because Joe Manganiello is clearing his schedule to play Deathstroke for David Ayer in Suicide Squad.

The info comes from The Wrap, where it looks like Manganiello’s involvement isn’t confirmed just yet.

Joe Manganiello was first rumored as Deathstroke about two months ago.

Suicide Squad” has an August 5, 2016 release date directed by David Ayer starring Will Smith as Deadshot, Jared Leto as the Joker, Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn, Cara Delevingne as Enchantress, Jai Courtney as Boomerang, Joel Kinnaman as Rick Flag, and Viola Davis is playing Amanda Waller.

Suicide Squad Rumors Include Karl Urban and More

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:18953:]]

Another day, another batch of Suicide Squad rumors.

With Tom Hardy bailing on the role of Rick Flag, names of actors said to be in contention have been hitting the net.

The latest comes from JoBlo, who states Karl Urban is being eyed for the role of a younger Rick Flag.

Apparently, Suicide Squad may have Rick Flag Sr. and Jr.; up for Rick Flag Sr. is said to be Ed Harris and Max Martini.

General Lane, Lois’ father, is also mentioned, with Gary Sinise possibly up for that role, which as noted would be a nice connection to Man of Steel and Superman.

Joe Manganiello is again said to be the first choice for Deathstroke; new details mention Deathstroke is a hired assassin competing with the Suicide Squad and not a part of the team.

The Joker is said to be inspired by Hannibal Lecter with scars all over his body from battles with Batman. It’s said The Joker plays mind games with people and twists their minds.

Info for the Enchantress states the character is “really powerful” and is instrumental in the film’s prison riot/breakout finale.

The Batman cameo that was previously rumored is said to feature Batman on a security camera, with an appearance by Ben Affleck dependent on his schedule.

I’ll also throw out that Jesse Eisenberg is rumored to appear as Lex Luthor, and how he could fit in the movie is that he partners up with the head of the Suicide Squad, Amanda Waller, as they both don’t like the Justice League (got the idea from watching the Justice League cartoon last night).

Suicide Squad has an August 6, 2016 release directed by David Ayer starring Jared Leto as The Joker, Will Smith as Deadshot, Jai Courtney as Boomerang, Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn, Cara Delevingne as Enchantress and Viola Davis is said to be up for Amanda Waller.
