Spartacus alum Cynthia Addai-Robinson has been tapped to play the DC Comics villain.
In the Arrow-verse, the formidable and enigmatic Amanda Waller works for A.R.G.U.S. — Advanced Research Group United Support — a clandestine agency that has a mysterious agenda and possesses key information about the Arrow. In the comics, Waller runs the Suicide Squad, which will be introduced in Season 2 as Deadshot (Michael Rowe) teams up with Bronze Tiger, who will be played by Michael Jai White.

I wish the had cast someone who looked more like this

I'm already crossing my fingers for a Crixus-Naevia reunion.
ReplyDeleteIt's a spartacus reunion! Crixus and Naevia on the same show again!
ReplyDeleteOn one hand, skinny Amanda Waller seems wrong, but on the other hand, it avoids the showing fat people as evil, so yay?
ReplyDeleteI don't know her, but she doesn't look like any Amanda Waller I know.
ReplyDeleteYou do realize that there's a New 52 slimmed down version of her, don't you? And that's definitely the one they're going with.
ReplyDeleteYou're such a loser. Most people don't know or care about The New 52. There are much more important things in this world to be snarky about. Stop being a douche.
ReplyDeleteYou're such a moron. Most people who know comics like Babar do know about The New 52. How exactly was I a douche for pointing something out? Explain that to me "genius."
ReplyDeleteThere is absolutely no reason to personally attack anyone here for sharing their opinion. Take it to another site.
ReplyDeleteYou were acting like a douche by using the words "two clueless bozos" which adds nothing to the conversation and does not fit with the SpoilerTV comment guidelines posted above: "We welcome relevant, respectful comments." There are plenty of sites where you can go to insult people. Please don't bring that mentality here.
ReplyDeleteCalling someone a "loser" does not enhance your argument and in fact makes people discount your opinion. SpoilerTV does not allow personal attacks.
ReplyDeleteI've seen her face a couple times i think. Hmm i had to google her face though. She looks okay! But she's thin. Amanda wasn't. But we'll see how she does.
ReplyDeleteActually, I do not know the comics and saw Amanda Waller's comic photo on another site.
ReplyDeleteUmm, OK was hoping for a more mature actress but I'll give her a chance. At least we'll be getting a suicide squad story line, even if it has to be with Deadshot.
ReplyDelete@Dahne @Babar Suhail That idiot is now banned ;)
ReplyDeleteI never saw this actress nor read the comics so I don't have much opinion about this casting. I just hope she and this storyline are good.
ReplyDeleteThanks. SpoilerTV is always one of the most pleasant places to discuss TV.
ReplyDeleteNow all we need is Gannicus and Agron and my life will be complete ... sigh
ReplyDeleteDropping the hammer ... I approve.
ReplyDeleteI would settle for Spartacus himself, I just met him and Manu at the dragon con and those two guys have great chemistry and they do great work together!
ReplyDelete"In this life or the next!"
ReplyDeleteI'd die for a Spartacus reunion! Wonder if that might happen....
Having said that.... Not exactly who I picture when I think Amanda Waller, but Cynthia is great so I'm good.
