    Warning: SPOILERS for the Peacemaker episode “One other Rick Up My Sleeve” are forward!

    2021’s The Suicide Squad didn’t waste time displaying simply how harmful the missions the DC supervillains a part of Process Pressure X go on might be. Particularly, virtually all of Amanda Waller’s “first” staff was killed on that seaside in Corto Maltese at the start of the film, together with Jai Courtney’s Captain Boomerang, who’d beforehand appeared in 2016’s Suicide Squad. As if that wasn’t unhealthy sufficient, The Suicide Squad author and director James Gunn revealed that Courtney discovered about his character being killed off fairly jarringly.

    This was introduced up on Peacemaker: The Official Podcast with James Gunn when Gunn and actors Jennifer Holland (who’s additionally married to the filmmaker) and Steve Agee had been talking with Joel Kinnaman, who reprised Rick Flag Jr. within the newest Peacemaker episode to premiere on the 2025 TV schedule. Whereas Gunn was asking Kinnaman if he’d been informed forward of time that Flag would die in The Suicide Squad earlier than getting the script, he stated this about Jai Courtney:

    I do know Jai informed me that no one fucking informed him. It is not humorous, actually… He received it. He is excited to learn the script. He dies on web page 4, ten or one thing. And no one informed him. And he is like, ‘Ah, I can not wait to learn this James Gunn script with my character, Captain Boomerang, reprising his function.’ And he finds himself getting completely chopped up on… However his brokers had been informed.

    Yeesh, couldn’t Jai Courtney’s brokers have damaged him gently earlier than he cracked open that script? Contemplating how was one of many extra necessary members of Suicide Squad’s ensemble solid, I can think about how shocked he was to be taught that Captain Boomerang, a.okay.a. Digger Harkness, was being snuffed out so shortly. Joel Kinnaman couldn’t bear in mind if somebody had warned him about Rick Flag Jr.’s destiny, however a minimum of he had a a lot meatier function. In addition to, Peacemaker Season 2’s third episode gave him the chance to each play his authentic Flag in a flashback scene, in addition to an alternate universe model of him.

    In Captain Boomerang’s case, he was by chance killed as collateral injury when his teammate Mongal was making an attempt to carry down one of many Corto Maltese military’s helicopters. Nevertheless, Jai Courtney indicated in Might that James Gunn appears open to the potential of bringing Boomerang again. That will be doable as a result of The Suicide Squad was a DCEU launch, and now we’re within the DCU continuity. So though most of the occasions from that film are nonetheless canon on this universe, maybe Boomerang’s demise might be retconned.

    If that occurs in any of the upcoming DC films or upcoming DC TV exhibits, you might be positive we’ll speak about it. For now, be at liberty to revisit Jai Courtney’s two Captain Boomerang outings by streaming each Suicide Squad films with a Max subscription.
