James Gunn and Jennifer Holland are officially engaged. The "Suicide Squad" director, 55 — who later released the spin-off, "Peacemaker," centered on the anti-hero played by John Cena — popped the question to his longtime partner.
Gunn revealed that Holland, who stars in "Peacemaker," said yes as proven by the enormous sparkler she was donning in an Instagram snap and Twitter pic shared by Gunn on Sunday. In it, Holland is seen sipping from a mug at the base of a snow-covered mountain while wearing a mocha-colored sweater.

After meeting Gunn, Holland appeared in "Brightburn," a superhero horror film that was produced by Gunn in 2019.
