‘Suicide Squad 2’: James Gunn in Talks to Write, Possibly Direct

James Gunn‘s time with Marvel is over, but his work with DC might just be getting started. The Guardians of the Galaxy filmmaker is in talks to write and possibly direct Suicide Squad 2. The Accountant director Gavin O’Connor had previously been announced as the writer-director on the sequel, but things have changed. More on Gunn taking over as Suicide Squad 2 director below.

When Suicide Squad arrived, many were hoping it would be DC and Warner Bros. answer to Guardians of the Galaxy – a quirky, funny team-based movie focused on somewhat obscure characters. That didn’t exactly pan out. Now, Warner Bros. might finally get the Guardians-style film they were hoping for with Suicide Squad 2. The Wrap reports that James Gunn, the man behind Guardians of the Galaxy and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, is in talks to write, and possibly direct, the follow-up to the 2016 anti-superhero film.

More to come…
