Film director James Gunn has once again made use of Twitter, his favorite social network to respond and give information to his fans. In this case everything has been to offer us the exact duration of The Suicide Squad in this kind of Reboot / continuation of the 2016 film directed by David Ayer. Aside from the information, the message Gunn tweeted at the same time denotes the creativity that Warner has offered him since he told him that he could take down any member of the squad. A certain freedom that Justice League director Zack Snyder has vehemently denied.
It all started when a fan commented on how great a two-part version of this new adaptation would be, to which James Gunn commented that the duration of The Suicide Squad lasts “2 hours and 12 minutes”, which makes it somewhat longer. than its first Guardians of the Galaxy but shorter than the second installment. A really long enough footage to introduce all those new characters that the crazy tape contains. Surely, of that duration, a large part will include the occasional post-credits scene that the director likes so much. Surely if the story works well at the box office, Gunn could direct a second part, since knowing him, he will plant the occasional seed for a sequel.
In the same Twitter thread, Gunn explained: “I wrote, shot and edited the best movie I could and it ended up at this length. Nobody planned it to be that long. “ Let’s not forget that the film was finished in record time and that since then it has not stopped promoting with news of its cast. What is striking is the absence of an official synopsis by Warner just over a month after its premiere in Spain, on July 30. From what little we know is the presence of the villain Starro and that Gunn is going to use the “suicide” part of the title literally with more than one character. In the United States, the film will arrive a week later, premiering simultaneously on HBO Max.
