Well, it isn't quite the start of production (that we know of), but Team Suicide Squad will be meeting this week, presumably in Toronto where the film is preparing to shoot, accordin to Jai Courtney, who plays Captain Boomerang.

Speaking with Access Hollywood, Courtney said that "Everyone's been in training, but we're yet to kind of all converge and get down, but that's happening this week. I can't wait. It's really cool. It's going to be [as] big as you can imagine and, you know, it's a really interesting world."

"It does attract a certain amount of talent and dedication and [David] really demands that," Courtney added when quizzed on the demands of the film. "I mean, I'd heard a lot about what he put the guys through on Fury in order to prepare for that film and it fascinated me. I mean, you don't always get that. That's such a privilege as an actor when you are presented with a challenge and expected to really bring it and match and kind of come along. I think the group he's assembled, there's probably going to be a really healthy amount of competition between us. You know, not just to do it like the macho elements of like getting in shape and stuff....And you bring out the best in one another when you demand that of each other."

Courtney will star in Suicide Squad along with Will Smith, Margot Robbie, Viola Davis, Cara Delevingne and more. 

Suicide Squad is due in theaters August 5, 2016.
