The Suicide Squad took the ideas of the first movie and improved on almost everything, and the critics and fans’ approval proved they did it right this time. The movie has a higher Tomatometer score than any DC Extended Universe movie other than Wonder Woman, and a higher fan score than all but Zack Snyder’s Justice League.
There are several reasons for the movie’s success, but one of the biggest has to be improved characters. While most of the cast existed only to die, they still had defining scenes that were better than almost anything from the 2016 movie. But when it comes to astrology, which of these memorable moments displayed the most distinct zodiac sign traits?
12 Aries – Peacemaker
The Peacemaker is a complicated character, someone who lives to follow orders, but also someone who seems conflicted when he has to make a tough decision. An Aries is known for outbursts of anger, and Peacemaker proved he is always on the verge of snapping when he doesn’t get his way, which played out in one of The Suicide Squad‘s most shocking moments.
An Aries is also a bold warrior with an adventurous streak, always full of energy. If there is one thing Peacemaker showed in the movie, it was that he was always on the go and never wanted to hold back when he could be out killing someone.
11 Taurus – Silvio Luna
A Taurus is a zodiac sign that often relates to people who have a fine taste for things in life. This includes living a luxurious lifestyle and having impeccable taste. It is a perfect description of Silvio Luna, the dictator who has Harley Quinn kidnapped.
He has exquisite art and design in his castle, as well as a room full of beautiful birds. However, he is also possessive, jealous, and stubborn, other traits of the Taurus.
10 Gemini – Harley Quinn
One of the biggest differences in the 2021 and 2016 versions of The Suicide Squad was how the movie portrayed Harley Quinn. In the first movie, she kept trying to get back to Joker and was never a fully functioning butt-kicker. That all changed in Birds of Prey and The Suicide Squad.
Harley Quinn became a fully independent character in the 2021 movie. A Gemini is someone who has an infectious and often larger-than-life energetic personality and no one in the movie was bigger than Harley Quinn.
9 Cancer – Bloodsport
Bloodsport opened The Suicide Squad in personal crisis. He was a former military veteran who went to a life of crime. By the time Amanda Waller pulled him out of prison and assigned him to Task Force X, he had given up on life. However, Waller said she would make him a leader, and she did.
By the end, Bloodsport was the new leader of the Suicide Squad, someone who showed a selfless attitude as he became a hero to save innocent people. He didn’t start as a Cancer, but by the end, he fully lived the life of that zodiac sign, showing selflessness while fighting as a powerful warrior who was both smart and creative in battle.
8 Leo – Amanda Waller
A Leo is a leader, someone who can put together a team of misfits and lead them into a dangerous mission, with no one asking questions. That is what Amanda Waller does in the DC Universe, and she leads Task Force X with an iron fist, no one ever questioning her orders.
A lion signifies the Leo, and that couldn’t be any more apt in describing Waller, a woman who has made even Batman step back when she demands respect. A Leo is also larger than life with a large ego, and Amanda Waller overshadows every man and woman around her.
7 Virgo – Polka-Dot Man
Virgos are people who are extremely hard on themselves, often beating themselves up more than anyone else can. There is no one in The Suicide Squad who is more self-critical than Polka-Dot Man. His mother caused his wild powers, and he sees her face on everyone around him, taunting him.
Polka-Dot Man also worked hard to make himself valuable to the Suicide Squad, and it is typical of a Virgo sign to work to overcome any doubts and criticisms. He was also the only person who realized Milton was fighting with them, and that perception is a clear Virgo quality.
6 Libra – Ratcatcher 2
Typically, the zodiac sign Libra is even-keeled, intelligent, and just. This is someone who wants to keep a balance, and Ratcatcher 2 is a perfect fit for that for The Suicide Squad. She is a villain who tried to rob a bank using rats, but she is not a bad person.
She has strong moral values, even though she has a stronger connection with rats than humans. She is also smart and can talk her way out of trouble, which she did with King Shark, helping him find a family and a purpose.
5 Scorpio – Rick Flag
Rick Flag was not only the leader of the Suicide Squad in both movies, but he was also the man who had no fear when rushing headstrong into a war zone. This sign of fearlessness is a trait well-known for the Scorpio sign. Rick is both brave and focused, a perfect leader.
Flag is also dominating with his team and secretive about his mission objectives, two more Scorpio traits. Another more positive trait is faithfulness concerning protecting friends. Rick proved this by risking the mission to save Harley Quinn, as he enjoyed one of the best character arcs of anyone in the Suicide Squad from one movie to the next.
4 Sagittarius – The Thinker
The Thinker is a Flash villain from the comics as well as the TV show on The CW. In the movie, The Thinker is one of the most intelligent characters in The Suicide Squad. He worked for the U.S. Government here, aiding them in developing Project Starfish, which was unethical experimentation on an alien using humans as lab rats.
Sagittarius is the zodiac sign that is known as someone seeking the truth and thirsting for knowledge. While The Thinker uses this for nefarious purposes, that is not a surprise for a Sagittarius, one of the zodiac’s wildest and boldest signs.
3 Capricorn – Savant
Savant didn’t last for long in The Suicide Squad, but he was interestingly one of the first people the movie asked viewers to follow. He was cruel, killing a baby bird for no reason, and determined to get out of prison by any means, even if it meant a suicide mission.
A Capricorn has some negative traits that line up with Savant. He is stubborn, someone set in his ways who is not willing to follow those around him. He is also pessimistic, believing the world is out to get him and refusing to charge head-on into a battle where he could die. His negative zodiac traits ended him in The Suicide Squad.
2 Aquarius – Captain Boomerang
Captain Boomerang was an original Suicide Squad member from the 2016 movie. He is one of only three returning characters, the other two being Rick Flag and Harley Quinn. However, unlike Harley and Flag, Captain Boomerang died in the first beach attack.
The zodiac sign Aquarius signifies people who are impulsive, unpredictable, and stubborn. Anyone who saw the first movie knows these traits fit Captain Boomerang to a tee. He kept it up in The Suicide Squad, rushing into battle without a care in the world, which backfired this time.
1 Pisces – King Shark
The symbol of the fish represents the Pisces zodiac sign. That makes it easy to declare that King Shark would align with the characteristics of that sign. A Pisces is someone who tries to remain in the environment where they feel most comfortable, and for King Shark, he showed he felt a strong connection to the water.
A Pisces is also empathetic to the world, and while King Shark opened the movie wanting to eat everyone, he adapted well when showed love. He also saw the underwater life and clearly formed a bond. Add in the moodiness of the Pisces, and King Shark fits it better than almost any other zodiac.
