“Right now there’s no reason for The Suicide Squad release date to move,” he replied. “We are on or ahead of schedule. We were extremely fortunate to wrap shooting and set up editing from our homes (due to a post production team and studio with foresight) before quarantine.”
James Gunn revealed that ‘The Suicide Squad’ to be released on the planned released datte.
He added that the situation with the third instalment of “Guardians of the Galaxy“, also expected to drop in 2021, is much the same.
The director also said that there’s no change with release date for new installment of ‘Guardians of the Galaxy.’
“Right now the plans with Vol. 3 are also exactly the same as they were before coronavirus,” he said of the film, which will see the return of Chris Pratt as Peter Quill/Star-Lord.
