Amanda Waller is an ambivalent character in the DC Universe. She is the director for the deadly missions of the Suicide Squad and a specialist who oversees research into people with powers. Although she lacks superpowers herself, the character is a ruthless, high-ranking government official who uses guile, political connections, and sheer intimidation to achieve her goals, often in the name of national security. Waller is commonly associated with the fictional government agencies Checkmate and A.R.G.U.S.
In recent years, the character has been substantially adapted into animated and live-action media. Several actresses have voiced or portrayed the character: CCH Pounder for various animated projects; Pam Grier on the live-action series Smallville; Angela Bassett in the live-action film Green Lantern; Sheryl Lee Ralph in the animated series Young Justice; Cynthia Addai-Robinson in the live-action Arrowverse series Arrow; Yvette Nicole Brown in the animated series DC Super Hero Girls; and Viola Davis in the live-action DC Extended Universe film Suicide Squad. Davis reprised her role for the 2021 reboot sequel, The Suicide Squad.

* Waller appears as a NPC in Marvel/DC Heroes Unite!, voiced by Danielle Nicolet. She appears in the DLC chapter "Sinister Squads", where she sends the Suicide Squad after a powerful mystical artifact she grew interested with, indirectly putting the Squad in conflict with Doctor Octopus and the Sinister Six, who were at the time sent by Wilson Fisk the Kingpin to do the same. Also depending on player's choices, Waller will also trust in or oppose the Rookie hero/heroine on the objective.
