Link Tank: Storm Reid Had the Biggest Acting Challenge in The Suicide Squad
Storm Reid had a huge task in The Suicide Squad, Michael Keaton has slipped right back into Batman's shoes, the best comedies on Netflix, and more in Link Tank!
Young actress Storm Reid went toe-to-toe with Idris Elba in The Suicide Squad which is no easy task.
“DC comics movie The Suicide Squad has our mismatched group of villains coming together to take on a daunting task, but at the end of the day, actress Storm Reid may have faced the biggest challenge yet. The 18-year-old actress plays Tyla, Bloodsport’s (Idris Elba’s) daughter, who ends up becoming his motivation in joining Task Force X.”

In the case of What If, that means a new Hyundai commercial in the style of the animated anthology.

The Bachelor franchise is actually more similar to one giant video game than you might think.
“The Bachelor franchise, which consists of multiple dating shows dating back to 2002, doesn’t want you to think of its shows this way. The fantasy is supposed to be that people would risk it all for love, and treating it like a game ruins the idea. Still, the contestants—or players, if you will—usually end up telling on themselves. Often, a player will slip and refer to making progress on personal relationships or being the Bachelor or Bachelorette’s final choice as ‘winning.'”
