Fans have already known that Jim Parrack is attached to the cast of "Suicide Squad", but there is no word yet about the character he will play in the tentpole movie. Recent news revealed that Parrack would be Johnny Frost, one of the Joker's henchmen.

An Instagram photo uploaded by actress Corina Calderon, who has a small role in "Suicide Squad", seemed to confirm the casting rumor. She uploaded, and immediately deleted, a picture implying that Parrack would be Frost. "All #HappyCamper on my way to set again, going earlier than my #CallTime just to be there and watch my boy Jim Parrack playing #JonnyFrost do his Thang #SuicideSquad," so read the caption of the picture.

However, the news contradicts previous rumor that Parrack would be Deathstroke. Back in June, director David Ayer shared a photo of a silhouetted character wearing a baseball cap, headphones, jacket and longpants while carrying an assault rifle. Although the director didn't give any details on the photo, fans quickly speculated that the silhouetted man was Parrack and he would play Deathstroke.

Frost first appeared in the 2008 graphic novel "Joker" which was written by Brian Azzarello and illustrated by Lee Bermejo Frost. In the book, Frost is the Joker's chauffeur who gets the clown prince out of Arkham Asylum and then assists him on his reign of terror.

Based on DC comic books, "Suicide Squad" centers on supervillains who are recruited by the government to perform black operation in order to gain redemption. Parrack will join the likes of Margot Robbie, Jared Leto, Will Smith, Jai Courtney, Cara Delevingne, Joel Kinnaman, Viola Davis, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje, Adam Beach and Ike Barinholtz. The DC supervillain flick is scheduled for a release in the U.S. on August 5, 2016.
