While King Shark was voice by Sylvester Stallone in live - action , this fresh animate coming into court has Nanaue vocalise by Diedrich Bader .
Thanks to this new King Shark appearance and past references made toThe Suicide SquadinCreature Commandos , one has to inquire where the other Task Force X survivors might be . Perhaps Bloodsport , Harley Quinn , and Ratcatcher II are also still working for Waller on other missionary post , just like Peacemaker in his spin - off series . It would certainly be fun to see them again in the future of James Gunn ’s DCU .
