A ton of characters enter, but only a few leave. Here are the winners and losers of The Suicide Squad.
When the cast list for James Gunn's The Suicide Squad movie began dropping, fans were impressed by just how massive it was--especially compared to the relatively pared down roster of the original Suicide Squad from 2016. And, while the huge roster of obscure characters was exciting, it also meant the inevitable list of casualties was going to be sized to match.
This is a Suicide Squad movie, after all--dying is kind of the point.
So who makes it out of the movie alive? Only a handful of people, including some you might predict and some you definitely won't. We've got a full list of survivors and casualties here for you, but obviously these are all spoilers, so if you haven't seen the movie yet and are trying to avoid ruining it for yourself, please turn back now.
Harley Quinn - Alive
Of course fan-favorite Harley is alive and well--of every character in this movie, she was the only one basically guaranteed to survive.
Bloodsport - Alive
Newcomer Bloodsport wound up the de facto leader of this new Squad, though he was reluctant at first, and he helped ensure the safety of his fellow surviving teammates.
Peacemaker - Alive
Hopefully you stayed through the credits! Peacemaker "died" during the movie--or so we thought--but it turns out he was recovered from the rubble and resuscitated. We last see him in critical care, just in time for his spin-off show.
Rick Flag - Dead
Tragically, Rick Flag does not make it--he's killed by Peacemaker during a fight over a harddrive containing information implicating the US in Project Starfish.
Ratcatcher 2 - Alive
Ratcatcher 2--and her trusty rat Sebastian--both make it out of the movie relatively unscathed, don't worry.
TDK - Dead
TDK, whose name stands for The Detachable Kid, has one of the goofiest fight scenes and deaths in the movie.
Captain Boomerang - Dead
Alas, poor Boomer. He may have made it through the first Suicide Squad movie but he doesn't get very far in this one at all.
Javelin - Dead
Javelin's weapon winds up more important than he does. He kicks the bucket moments into the movie.
Mongal - Dead
She may be an alien warlord's daughter but apparently that's no match for an exploding helicopter.
Blackguard - Dead
Blackguard's ill-fated attempt to double cross the Squad left him (and many others) dead upon arrival to Corto Maltese.
Weasel - Alive
Another post-credits surprise! Weasel "drowns" early in the movie but is later seen choking back to life on the beach, totally fine.
Savant - Dead
Our requisite "bomb in the head" example, Savant tries to ditch the Squad and pays dearly for it.
Sol Soria - Alive
Technically not a Squad member, Sol Soria and what's left of her band of resistance fighters survive.
The Thinker - Dead
Also not a Squad member, The Thinker is killed by his own experiment, Starro--an alien he's been experimenting on for thirty-plus years.
King Shark - Alive
Adorably cannibalistic King Shark makes friends, eats people, and survives the entire movie.
Polka-Dot Man - Dead
Poor Polka-Dot Man flies a little too close to the sun at the end of the film and pays for it with his life--at least for one brief and fleeting moment he gets to be happy. RIP.
Milton - Dead
RIP to a real one, and honorary member of the Squad.
