Suicide Squad Director David Ayer Says James Gunn is “Reinventing the Universe”
David Ayer may not be returning to the director’s chair for The Suicide Squad, but he has only good things to say about his successor, James Gunn. Back in 2016, Ayer helmed the first Suicide Squad movie, which introduced Margot Robbie’s Harley Quinn, among others. Ayer recently took to Twitter to clarify the relationship between the two movies. He also went out of his way to praise Gunn and share his excitement for the franchise.
It’s not a sequel it’s a reinvention and @JamesGunn is going to absolutely knock it out of the park. I’m cheering every step a way. https://t.co/MehKt7rvLO

Yes that is correct – some characters and elements will be used but @JamesGunn is reinventing the universe. Everybody recognizes the immense potential of the franchise. https://t.co/iiWSKPI17P
