Going to get this out of the way before this thread gets out of hand (it will) and becomes the normal film room cuss show (most do):
This was obvious from the minute marvel fired him. He was going to jump ship across town and THR reported a few weeks back that studios weren’t afraid of hiring him and wanted to hire him. Regardless of anyone’s personal feelings on it, the film community as a whole has seemingly had his back through this whole thing and truly believe he was the victim of right wingers vowing to “hurt the libs.” Only makes sense someone would make sure he’d fall on a pile of money in that case.
Second thing, since suicide squad was cut and edited to be a low rent guardians of the galaxy, it only makes sense to see if the guy you bit is interested in doing the real thing. The Wrap is reporting he’s got a new take so I wouldn’t be surprised to see everyone but Will, Viola, and Margot thrown to the bushes.
They’ll also face no real backlash from this on the PR front. A few people will protest and be mad about it but I guarantee you most will welcome this with open arms and be happy for the dude. Film Twitter is already happy so yeah that’s going to continue.

They kicked him out of the editing bay and basically shut him out of the most important process in moviemaking. The final product wasn’t his. So yeah they clearly weren’t happy and that relationship is probably unsalvageable at this point.
They wanted Gibson to direct and he passed. Then they got the guy who did the accountant but clearly if Gunn is willing to direct, he’s also gone.

Good move on WB. Although I liked Suicide Squad up until like halfway in the 2nd Act, I'm sure Gunn's Suicide Squad will be much better.

DC lost again.
For me, it’s one of those movies that works until it doesn’t. All the characters are fun and interesting. The narrative becomes ass cheeks tho and then just a big ole mess

Gunn and Reeves are solid moves to right the ship. If Affleck isn't Batman maybe he can direct a franchise.

So this means Leto is out as The Joker I'm hearing?
That’s the rumor but nothing is official so I wouldn’t believe it until it’s from a good source. I’ve read writers theorizing it may mean that but that’s just them theorizing
