As for the plot of the show, it will focus on Harley Quinn, Deadshot, Peacemaker, Clayface, and King Shark as members of Suicide Squad. Joker is not part of the line-up, but he’s a major character nonetheless. For reasons unknown, Waller sends the Suicide Squad to an isekai that is a classic fantasy world with magic, orcs, and dragons.
Here is the cast list for Suicide Squad Isekai:
- Clayface: Jun Fukuyama (Lelouch in Code Geass, Protagonist in Persona 5)
- Deadshot: Reigo Yamaguchi (Jalil in Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch From Mercury)
- Harley Quinn: Anna Nagase (Ushio Kofune in Summer Time Rendering: Another Horizon, Riko in Jujutsu Kaisen)
- King Shark: Subaru Kimura (Kusanagi in Yu-Gi-Oh Vrains, Tendo in Haikyu!!)
- Peacemaker: Takehito Koyasu (Jade in Tales of the Abyss, DIO in JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure)
- The Joker: Yuuichirou Umehara (Alhaitham in Genshin Impact, Vivia Twilight in Master Detective Archives: Rain Code)
Yamaguchi and Nagase are fairly new voice actors, especially in comparison to veterans such as Fukuyama and Koyasu. Since the plot of the anime is so separate from existing DC Comics lore, people can likely watch it without knowing anything about DC comics or the series.
The Suicide Squad Isekai anime will start airing in 2024.
