SUICIDE SQUAD Movie Could Be Directed by David Ayer
There are several DC Comic films that have been set for release by Warner Bros. through 2020. Not all of the films have been announced yet, but it looks like one of them has been revealed. That movie is Suicide Squad, and Variety reports that End of Watch director David Ayer is the studio's top choice to direct it.
Ayer has a talent for making dark, edgy, and gritty movies, and Suicide Squad would be an awesome flick for him to develop. The project has been sitting around for awhile and we first reported on it five years ago. Dan Lin is producing the movie from a script written by Justin Marks.
The Suicide Squad was introduced in 1959, and it focused on a team of supervillains who were given a second chance by the government for redemption. There's one catch though, they are sent out on deadly missions that will likely end up getting them killed.
This should make for a great movie, and I hope Ayer really does direct it. The next film that Ayer has coming out is the World War II war film Fury, which looks incredible.
