Arrow - Episode 3.17 - Suicide Squad to Return *Updated*

Jan 28, 2015

Share on Reddit


Update: This will now take place in the 17th episode of the season, not the 18th as was previously reported.

ETonline has exclusively learned that Arrow will be reuniting members of Task Force X, also known as the Suicide Squad, in the 17th episode of the season in an hour appropriately titled “Suicidal Tendencies.”

A.R.G.U.S. head Amanda Waller (Cynthia Addai-Robinson) returns in this episode, along with fan favorites Deadshot (Michael Rowe) and Cupid (Amy Gumenick), who is the newest member of the gang! Not everyone will be present however, with Bronze Tiger sitting this one out and Shrapnel six feet under (R.I.P.).

A brand-new character will also be introduced to the Arrow universe: the corrupt politician Senator Cray, to be played by Grey’s Anatomy and Bosch star Steven Culp.

In the John Ostrander run of the Suicide Squad comics, Joe Cray was a dirty senator who used Task Force X to advance his political standing. On Arrow, Senator Cray will be at the center of a rescue operation in the fictional Republic of Kasnia.

  1. i still find it weird that we love a supervillain team LOL, well Deadshot kind of became an anti-hero or anti-villain i don't which one fits him but he's not a straight out villain

  2. Interesting, Felicity's mom is also coming back in this episode. Maybe Oliver will be busy in the hospital with her, thus giving Dig the time to shine with the SS. I'm always happy to see Dig in action and I missed Deadshot and Cupid.

  3. they don't have Flagg here yet so who's their Flagg right now?

    ReplyDelete
  4. I don't like supervillains, I like them interacting with the main cast. Especially cause Deadshot promises Diggle centric moments.

    ReplyDelete
  5. Amazing NEWS!!! Can't wait should be fun! Can't wait for Cupid to return!
    This should be the episode with the start of the last 6 eps or last 5?

    ReplyDelete
  6. Wasn't Donna scheduled to appear in 3x17? Probably have mixed up something.
    Felicity will do double duty here if Donna is in town the week she stays in Central.

    ReplyDelete
  7. So it's just gonna be those two and Diggle? Not much of a squad. Unless the producers are keeping quiet about any new members.

    ReplyDelete
  8. AWESOME!!!!! WHOOOO!!!!!!!, i was waiting for this but dang it they're going to rescue a corrupt scumbag

    ReplyDelete
  9. right, it's strange, maybe Komodo's there too

    ReplyDelete
  10. No she is coming back in 3x18. Actually The Flash is one episode ahead of Arrow in production; so EBR will be filming 1x18 of The Flash and 3x17 of Arrow. She will probably get injured in The Flash then goes to Starling to recover.

    ReplyDelete
  11. Flagg is the leader of Suicide Squad. If you remember Gyllenhall was recently cast as him instead of that other dude who played Bane in Batman.

    ReplyDelete
  12. I'm not a fan of the SS but I like any reason for a Diggle centric episode. I only like Deadshot because he was starting to show some humanity and helped the team, like you said an anti-hero and Cupid is fun lol can't wait to see her interact with Dig especially if she finds out that he knows The Arrow lol

    ReplyDelete
  13. yeah Suicide Squad!
    Thats the episode when Felicity and Ray crossover to The Flash (at least on The Flash 1x18)

    ReplyDelete
  14. Yes, but Felcity will be in full on both Arrow 3x17 and 3x18, according to Marc. She will be doing double work to shoot Flash 1x18 and Arrow 3x17.

    ReplyDelete
  15. Ohhhh!!! I thought the exact same thing!!! It's a good way to take Oliver and Felciity out of the way so that Diggle gets the chance to shine!!! Hopefully Lyla will be by his side during the mission...

    ReplyDelete
  16. Great news!!! I was scared that because of the movie we couldn't have Deadshot or the Suicide Squad anymore!!! Glad they're coming back... I was one of the few people that really liked Cupid so i'm psyched! It's always great to see some Digg/Deadshot! I hope Lyla iss by Diggle's side all the episode!


    And seeing Donna Smoak it's a great plus! :D

    ReplyDelete
  17. Diggle does Rick's work on the show...

    ReplyDelete
  18. I'm still hoping for Deathstroke and Capt. Boomerang to join.

    ReplyDelete
  19. Felicity will be in the hospital in 3.18 ?? I've missed that spoiler somehow.

    ReplyDelete
  20. Well Dig and Lyla act as leaders.

    ReplyDelete
  21. Good guess though :-)

    ReplyDelete
  22. Stupid 'nails-scratching-the-wall' Cupid is back? Whyyy, oh why? Headdesk! Headdesk! Headdesk!!!
    Looking forward to the rest returning though <33

    ReplyDelete
  23. I'm good with this. Hopefully the writers listened to the feedback on the idiotic Cupid dialogue and tone it down. I love Amy Gumenick but not Cupid.

    ReplyDelete
  24. Only two members in the squad.. Please add Komodo. So looks like another Starling lite episode. Mama Smoak is back.

    ReplyDelete
  25. Hope Deathstroke joins eventually.

    ReplyDelete
  26. Thank you, Thank you :D

    ReplyDelete
  27. I'm loving it although i personally would've dropped Cupid from this awesome equation!She's horrible IMO!

    ReplyDelete
  28. I feel so guilty because I'm excited about Felicity getting hurt lol but we will get to see Mama Smoak again, Oliver worried and a Dig episode, soooo you see my dilemma haha. I hope so too; I love Lyla.

    ReplyDelete
  29. Ah yes in the SS movie. I remember now.

    ReplyDelete
  30. Missed Deadshot this season, kinda odd that only two members are going to be present,
    but I hope for new members to be introduced that episode

    ReplyDelete
  31. Marc said on his Tumblr account that Donna's scenes will take place in a hospital so it's just a guess.

    ReplyDelete
  32. Missed Deadshot. Would like to see how Cupid is with them. Sighhh if only HQ was around.

    ReplyDelete
  33. He only appeared in a few issues. He attempted to blackmail Amanda Waller to help him get re-elected. Instead, Deadshot killed him. Because she lost control of the Suicide Squad (Deadshot killing Cray), Amanda was stripped of her position.

    Part of the scandal involved the Suicide Squad becoming public knowledge.

    ReplyDelete
  34. I hope we get another Harley Quinn cameo :)

    ReplyDelete
  35. Suicide Spin-Off Here We Come !!!!

    ( back door pilot ? )

    Dead Shot aka Floyd Lawton and Cupid Stupid aka Carrie Cutter are a great start to the team . Recast Bronze Tiger then add Harleen Quinzel aka Harley Quinn, Slade Wilson aka Deathstroke, Malcolm Merlyn aka The Dark Archer, Roy Harper aka Arsenal, and a resurrected paralyzed Sara Lance as Oracle to the Suicide Squad team and lets get this 'spin-off' going.

    ( Cynthia Addai-Robinson as Amanda Waller, Amy Gumenick as Cupid, Michael Rowe as Deadshot, Sarah Michelle Gellar as Harley Quinn, Manu Bennett as Deathstroke, John Barrowman as Dark Archer, Colton Haynes as Arsenal, and Caity Lotz as Oracle )

  36. If you haven't seen it yet, I suggest checking out Batman: Assault On Arkham. It's pretty much an animated Suicide Squad movie.

    ReplyDelete
  37. So Suicide Squad and Mama Smoak are in different episodes?

    ReplyDelete
  38. Well old news, but good news, interesting to see Cupid back.

    ReplyDelete
  39. I hater her too.

    ReplyDelete
  40. I can't stand Cupid. I thought her episode was thew worst episode of the season.

    ReplyDelete
  41. Aw, dang it. I was hoping that Huntress would be a part of this too. Oh well. At least Deadshot is back. I won't mind seeing Cupid again either.

    ReplyDelete
  42. It's probably not something you read, but I think Guggenheim promised an update on the Huntress's status in the season 2.5 comics. Her last apperance a Vertigo trip.

    ReplyDelete
  43. YES! Deadshot, I have missed you!! Will be fun to see Cupid again too :)

    ReplyDelete
  44. LOL 52 comments, very funny with DC 52

    ReplyDelete
  45. Boomerang WAS part of it remember? in the crossover and then a botched mission happened and they thought he died

    ReplyDelete
  46. someone blackmailed Amanda Waller? is that even possible?

    ReplyDelete
  47. Roy and Sara aren't evil

    ReplyDelete
  48. she's out there redeeming herself right?

    ReplyDelete
  49. yeah i didn't want to say it out loud since you know Diggle's good and Flagg's evil but yeah

    ReplyDelete
  50. I honestly had no idea if that word was a name or an adjective or even a verb lol

    ReplyDelete
  51. Yeah, i know. I just want for them to bring him back on it.

    ReplyDelete
  52. True ... but ... Roy killed that cop and Sara has killed as well so I could see them both being arrested.
    You don't need to be 'evil' to be a Suicide Squad member just a 'criminal'

    ReplyDelete
  53. True. But Roy like Sara hasn't had charges or a case brought against him. And I doubt they'd stick. Roy May have killed the guy but he had no control over his actions, or knowledge of what he was doing. Basically insane automatism. Plus he feels awful about it. Sara as Oracle though, unfortunately doesn't work (lacks the expertise). Be a good lineup though. But Gellar is way too old to be Harley.
