In late 2016, we heard that a Deadshot movie was in the works for Suicide Squad star Will Smith. In a new interview this week, Smith confirmed that Warner Bros. is “talking about it”.
Smith celebrated his 50th birthday on Tuesday, and bungee jumped out of a helicopter! But before he did, he answered some fan questions. The whole thing was streamed live on his YouTube channel.
One fan asked if there will be a Deadshot movie. “I hope so, I love playing Deadshot,” Smith said. “I really enjoy that character. They’ve been talking about it. If a good idea comes around… we’ve been having meetings. I would love to. I love Deadshot.”
You can check out Smith’s reply in the video below around the 1:45 mark.
Based on Smith’s answer it doesn’t sound like a Deadshot movie is happening anytime soon, if ever, but he certainly would love to do it if the opportunity came along.
Would you like to see Will Smith star in his own Deadshot movie? Let me know in the comments below.
