The cast of The Suicide Squad is trying to manifest a number of things this week. First, everyone involved is hoping for a major weekend at the box office. Second, they’re hoping to get a major new landmark in Edmonton named after The Suicide Squad star Nathan Fillion. The Canadian city is in the process converting a series of downtown parking lots into a luscious green park, and one new online petition hopes the city will opt to name it the Nathan Fillion Civilian Pavilion. Fillion is, after all, from the city.
.@Sonic1029 started a petition to name a new building in Edmonton The Nathan Fillion Civilian Pavilion. #TheSuicideSquad (@JamesGunn, @IdrisElba, @JohnCena, @Dastmalchian, @MelchiorDaniela) had thoughts on their favourite Edmontonian @NathanFillion getting his own building. pic.twitter.com/16QmS0t4ew
