Suicide Squad finally secured its lineup of villians-turned-heroes, but that hasn't stopped DC Entertainment from adding another big name in an unspecified role. Common has signed on to join the all-star film, according to The Hollywood Reporter. The magazine also reports Jesse Eisenberg and Ben Affleck could make cameos as Lex Luthor and Batman, respectively. 

Common joins the cast of Jared Leto (The Joker), Will Smith, (Deadshot), Margot Robbie (Harly Quinn), and Cara Delvingne (Enchantress). While his role hasn't been named, there's already speculation that he'll play the John Stewart version of the Green Lantern. That could mean he'd reprise the role in the upcoming Justice League and Green Lantern solo films. Although with how vile Fox News and police think he is, Common might be more fit to play a villian. 

Suicide Squad hits theaters August 5th, 2016.
