Not quite sure what you mean but the production cost was: $175M
Domestic Box Office $325,100,054
International Box Office $421,000,000
Worldwide Box Office $746,100,054

:manny:

Apparently it made enough money for WB to green-light a few spin offs and sequels.

That production cost wasn't 175mil.
We had talks before the re-editing and reshoots that it was in the 225 mil range. Add P&A to that, which was most likely in the 150mil range , that movie barely got a profit. IMHO.

You are just looking at box office profit. With ancillary, toys, TV syndication, etc. Suicide Squad will be more than profitable. How much profit, they studio WILL NEVER let you truly know, because of the creative accounting they do for biz reasons. WB is more than happy with Suicide Squad. Which is why you are seeing spinoffs and will see a sequel.

TV deals and licensing are fine and dandy, doesn't mean SS made massive profits that justify the monetary investment.

Patrick Wilson is one of those actors who's just good in everything.

I've never seen a bad performance from him.


Very under rated actor who flies under the radar but consistently puts in great performanceshape.

It's funny because he was really on the verge of breaking out around Watchmen coming off strong roles in acclaimed indie films like Hard Candy and Little Children, then he just kinda disappeared again. Definitely someone you can always rely on to turn in a good performance.

So why are they making spinoffs?
What spinoffs, harley quinn was recieved well, thats about the only one i've heard of. As for why, their movies have been shakey and they are trying to run with anything that they thing can get them back on solid footing. Affleck got great reviews and buzz being Batman, so now the Batman movie is coming out before JL I hear. Typical DC/WB being reactionary
