It makes sense for Strong to be playing Harley Quinn inSuicide Squad: Kill the Justice League. Not only does her extensive experience playing the character make her the ideal candidate, but it should go a long way in maintaining the series' continuity. For the uninitiated,Suicide Squad: Kill the Justiceis asequel to Rocksteady’sBatman: Arkhamgames, so the Harley Quinn seen in the new game is the same character that appeared in the previous games, making the Strong casting choice all the better.
While Strong is providing the voice for Harley Quinn inSuicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, the rest of the voice cast has yet to be revealed. TheSuicide Squadplayable charactersinclude the likes of Captain Boomerang, Deadshot, and King Shark as well, so it will definitely be interesting to see who is playing them in the new game.
Of course, there will be other characters inSuicide Squad: Kill the Justice Leaguebesides the playable ones. TheSuicide Squad: Kill the Justice Leaguereveal trailer confirms Supermanas one of the main antagonists in the game, and it’s likely that he will be voiced. It’s also heavily implied that classic Superman villain Braniac will be featured in the game as well, and one has to imagine that there will be appearances made by many other DC Comics characters, if Rocksteady’s previous work is any indication.
Unfortunately, withSuicide Squad: Kill the Justice League’s release datenot until 2022, it may be quite some time until fans see who else will be a part of the cast. But hopefully Rocksteady keeps fans engaged with regular development updates between now and then.
