After a stint as Dark Elf Algrim/Kurse in Thor: The Dark World, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje is switching sides from Marvel to DC, according to TheWrap. He’s set to play Killer Croc in WB’s “Suicide Squad.”
Killer Croc’s real name is Waylon Jones, and the character is among Batman’s rogue’s gallery of supervillains. He has a reptilian appearance and he first appeared in Batman #357 in March 1983.
