James Gunn Speaks On The Potential Return Of Key Suicide Squad Members In The DC Universe


Is James Gunn bringing the Suicide Squad again? The director speaks on if some fan-favorite characters are poised to return within the DC Universe.

It’s no secret that Peacemaker has blown as much as be one of many largest heroes within the DC Universe following his position in The Suicide Squad. And with the most recent season of his present focusing much more on the fallout of his actions from that movie, followers have begun to surprise if some other members of Job Power X could also be making their return within the close to future.

But it appears their return might not be so simple as many followers assume. James Gunn was requested in regards to the prospect of bringing anti-heroes similar to Bloodsport and Ratcatcher 2 again to the franchise throughout a current interview with The Hollywood Reporter. One of many large causes he cites as to why their return might not be doubtless is that The Suicide Squad isn’t precisely clear in what’s canon or not.

“No, not likely. I don’t [hope to resume that conflict]. Persons are at all times asking me about stuff from The Suicide Squad, and The Suicide Squad is a troublesome factor as a result of it isn’t DCU. However there aren’t too many issues in it that aren’t [DCU].

” Not like Peacemaker season one — which is totally DCU, in addition to the ending and one or two mentions of various issues — The Suicide Squad brings up extra questions than solutions.”

Will The Suicide Squad Ever Return?

Fortunately, simply because issues are sophisticated doesn’t imply that they’re not possible. James Gunn would go on to say that he’s actually open for The Suicide Squad staples like Bloodsport and Ratcatcher 2 to return. Nonetheless, as a result of present story being informed with Peacemaker, he’s not leaping the gun at reintegrating them into the DC Universe.

“Now, I’m not saying that these characters gained’t reappear. I’m simply saying that I’m [already] coping with Peacemaker’s guilt over killing Rick Flag Jr. and his repercussions for that. And that story is being informed by means of his relationship with Rick Flag Sr.”

“To inform it by means of Bloodsport, who was mates with Rick Flag Jr., could be an emotionally diminished story in comparison with the one I’m telling now. So it doesn’t curiosity me in any respect.”

With James Gunn now overseeing the whole thing of the DC Universe, it’s doubtless that he doesn’t have as a lot time to fiddle with the obscure heroes as he as soon as did when he initially made The Suicide Squad. Whereas there’s actually hope for the characters to make their return, it’s doubtless not far up on his to-do listing as co-chair.
