THE SUICIDE SQUAD ADDS SOME BITE

Well, we assume he'll at least be a cannibal, but Killer Croc will be in the upcoming "Suicide Squad" film. Waylon Jones aka Killer Croc will be played by Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje (G.I. Joe: The Rise Of Cobra, Thor: The Dark World, etc).

Immediate questions or concerns from this casting have nothing really to do with the actor, unlike majority of DC Comic movieverse castings. Pretty much everything begins with how Killer Croc will look visually. Waylon Jones appearance plays a large part in who he is as a character. Will he be a brute of a man, possibly a cannibal, but still a man? Similar to how he is in the graphic novel "Joker"? Or will Adewale be more of a voice behind a CGI version? With more of the traditional "giant crocodile walking on 2 legs"? It will be also interesting to see how Killer Croc blends in with the rest of the Suicide Squad cast. A crew that will include Deadshot (Will Smith), Harley Quinn (Margot Robbie), The Joker (Jared Leto), and Captain Boomerang (Jai Courtney) so far. Tom Hardy was to be Rick Flag, but was forced to drop the role (scheduling conflict). Another question is whether of not Batfleck will be making an appearance in the this film (set to release  August 5th, 2016)). With a quite a few of his rogues gallery being a part of the Squad it may be safe to say, at the very least post-credits, Ben Affleck will appear as Batman.

As is the case with so much of DC Comics movieverse, we will have to wait and see. Could we see Adewale revisit the character in a Batman film down the road? See? The questions keep popping up.
