The Suicide Squad Runtime Clocks In Longer Than Justice League's Theatrical Cut
The Suicide Squad is one of the most anticipated DCEU entries this 2021, mainly due to its stacked cast and intriguing plot.
The film is directed by Guardians of the Galaxy director James Gunn, and it is filled with a combination of stars from its 2016 predecessor like Margot Robbie, Joel Kinnaman, Viola Davis, and newcomers such as John Cena, Idris Elba, and Sylvester Stallone.
Set to premiere this August, The Suicide Squad will showcase a brand-new version of Task Force X, with the team going on a mission in the dangerous Corto Maltese. Marketing has revealed that the anti-heroes will duke it out against a cosmic threat in the form of Starro the Conqueror, but details behind its emergence are still being kept under wraps.
With less than two months away, Gunn has been active on social media to promote the film, and his latest reveal could shed some light on how the sequel will balance its narrative.
