Suicide Squad rumors are ripe for the picking again today. We've heard a lot about the members of the squad and the potential villain. However, not much has been said about Amanda Waller, one of the key characters of this story.

From our point of view, there can't be a Suicide Squad movie without Amanda Waller, unless Warner Bros. and DC want to get fans overly angry. She has to show up. We want to know: who will play the part and when will Warner Bros. reveal her to the world?

At this moment, it is difficult to pinpoint who could walk in the shoe of Amanda Waller, who is also known as The Wall. This is because DC has created two versions of the character: one who is a little bit on the heavy side and the other slim and fit.

If Warner chooses to go with the New DC 52 story arc, then no doubt fans will be seeing a slim and body fit Waller. However, if the studio returns to the past, we could witness the rise of a fluffy Waller who is capable of scaring the skin off any man, even the bats.

We're hearing rumors Oprah Winfrey might play the part. She would no doubt be an odd choice, but let us not forget that Winfrey is a good actress, so she could possibly pull it off. Furthermore, she is one of the most powerful women in the world, and we believe Warner Bros. might take a liking to her, perhaps due to her strength of character.

Should the studio look to a slimmer Amanda Waller, then we prefer Angela Bassett in the part. She's a great actress and has played the role before in the failed Green Lantern movie.

For anyone who has no idea of her acting skills, we recommend watching American Horror Story: Coven and American Horror Story: Freak Show.

Apart from these two, there aren't many actresses who we believe are capable of bringing justice to Waller. Still, if they are, then we can only hope that DC finds the correct fit.
