What if Superman was the “Big Bad” inThe Suicide Squad?

It’s a scenario that almost happened.

“He’s a character I love from the comics.

What he does is scary,” Gunn explained.

And if they did, it’d have been a ‘black cloud’ version of Starro.

Another factor that had Gunn hesitating about including Superman in the film?

“At the time, there were a lot of questions like, ‘Who is Superman in the DCEU?

Is this movie outside the DCEU?

‘, and I just didn’t want to deal with it all that much,” Gunn admitted.

“In this film, they trusted who James is, everyone has confidence in his vision.”

Though it’s definitely interesting to wonder what kind of story Gunn would have told.

After all, whowouldn’twant to see Kal-El dealing with a ton of rats?
