[QUOTE="trappedslider, post: 8370030, member: 41932"] Idris was originally pegged to play Deadshot, and the character was allegedly planned to actually be Deadshot in earlier drafts but was changed to a different character to allow Will Smith the chance to return in the future. In contrast to Deadshot, Both men are elite-level assassins and Notorious Parents with hidden hearts of gold who end up being dragged into Waller's suicide mission for the sake of their children. But whereas Deadshot is the doting father of a cheerful young girl who loves him despite his career as a hired gun, Bloodsport is a terrible father to a juvenile delinquent who are both constantly at each other's throats. Where as Deadshot is motivated into joining the Squad by his need to be back in his daughter's life, Bloodsport personally wants nothing to do with his kid but is coerced into joining the team's roster or else his daughter will intentionally be sent to Belle Reve by Waller to die. Where Deadshot was consistently at odds with Rick Flag during their mission in Midway City and had to overcome their grievances with one another to get the job done, Bloodsport and Flag are old war buddies who are far more cordial to one another during their operation in Corto Maltese. Deadshot was a jerk with the occasional good moment, whereas Bloodsport is a pretty good guy with the occasional jerk moment. And where Deadshot's skillset is defined by his Improbable Aiming Skills, Bloodsport's skillset showcases a bigger emphasis on him being both a Walking Armory and a Multi-Melee Master who's capable of mowing down entire armies with his superior firepower. And more strikingly, Where Deadshot completed his mission but is still entrapped as Waller's asset, Bloodsport succeeded in obtaining freedom for both himself and the surviving members of his squad via blackmailing Waller with the data collected from Jotunheim. Even their superhero adversaries are contrasting, with Deadshot being a Batman villain who was eventually appended by the Dark Knight during a night out with his daughter while Bloodsport is a Superman villain who put the Man of Steel in the ICU before he was arrested. I also let out a little cheer at the act that Corto Maltese is mentioned again in live action, since the last time I can remember was during Batman '89. [/QUOTE]
