A lot has changed at the DC division over at Warner Bros since then. Many months ago, James Gunn (Guardians of the Galaxy) was announced as the director of the next Suicide Squad movie, which is set to be a reboot, not a sequel, titled The Suicide Squad. With Gunn at the helm, it looks like we could actually get a Suicide Squad movie worthy of its source materials. Fortunately, it looks like James Gunn’s screenplay is actually really solid. In an interview with ComicBook.com, Guardians of the Galaxy actor and brother to James Gunn, Sean Gunn, shared his thoughts on his brother’s script: While Sean Gunn was never going to come out and say anything negative about his brother’s screenplay, it’s still great to hear more positive news surrounding the project. James Gunn previously mentioned that he will be drawing heavily from the John Ostrander run of the Suicide Squad comics. The Suicide Squad is set to hit the big screens on 6 August 2021.
