James Gunn shares new The Suicide Squad BTS photo showing several cast members together. A standalone sequel and soft-reboot to David Ayer's critically-panned 2016 movie, The Suicide Squad is being helmed by writer-director James Gunn, who joined the DCEU during his brief firing from Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3. Gunn's forthcoming film focuses on the eponymous band of convicts imprisoned as they form the special Task Force X under the watchful eye of A.R.G.U.S. director Amanda Waller (Viola Davis). The antiheroes' central mission involves journeying to South America to destroy a Nazi-era prison and laboratory in return for parole. During the mission, however, the DC Comics team comes across Starro - a mysterious alien starfish and prolific DC villain.
With its release a little over a month away, Gunn has been actively promoting his film on social media, sharing intriguing spoilers, teasers, and trivia about The Suicide Squad. Recently, he unveiled the full list of songs as well as the 13 other DC villains he wanted to use for the film. Gunn's also keeping audiences on their toes as he has confirmed that several characters die during his film. Now, Gunn has shared another interesting tidbit from production of The Suicide Squad, hyping up audiences even more for the film.
On Saturday, James Gunn shared a new behind-the-scenes photo of The Suicide Squad cast. The picture features several of the leading mischief-makers standing side-by-side with the director in the middle.
