Ending Explained

In the conclusion of James Gunn's "The Suicide Squad," the surviving members of Task Force X confront the giant alien starfish, Starro the Conqueror, in the fictional Corto Maltese. After a fierce battle, Harley Quinn uses a javelin to pierce Starro's eye, allowing Ratcatcher 2 to summon her rats to infiltrate and attack the creature from within, ultimately killing it. Meanwhile, Bloodsport takes charge, leading the team effectively and ensuring their survival. The aftermath sees the squad members negotiating their freedom. Bloodsport uses the data disk containing evidence of the U.S. government's involvement with Project Starfish to blackmail Amanda Waller into letting them go free. The film ends with the surviving squad members—Bloodsport, Harley Quinn, King Shark, and Ratcatcher 2—leaving Corto Maltese, each having grown and bonded through their shared ordeal. In a mid-credits scene, it is revealed that Peacemaker survived his apparent death, setting up his storyline for future projects. This conclusion ties up the main plot while leaving room for potential sequels and spin-offs.
