Suicide Squad Director David Ayer Reveals That His Cut Was Too ‘Dark’ For The Studio

One of the most exciting projects in the DC Extended Universe (DCEU) is The Suicide Squad, which sees James Gunn in the director's chair. In what is a reboot of the 2016 David Ayer film, we see some returning favourites in Margot Robbie, Viola Davis, Joel Kinnaman and Jai Courtney.

The Suicide Squad director James Gunn has teased a little bit about what fans can expect to see from John Cena's character when the Worlds of DC film hits cinemas next year.Cena was confirmed as a part of the star-studded The Suicide Squad cast last year, but while we already know that the likes of Margot Robbie, Joel Kinnaman and Viola Davis will be reprising their roles from the first Suicide Squad movie, we don't yet know which characters the new cast members will be playing.

The Suicide Squad is scheduled to release next year. The new DCEU movie retains a few faces from David Ayer's Suicide Squad while recruiting a slew of new faces for the project.
