Warner Bros. has tapped Gavin O’Connor to write and direct Suicide Squad 2, the sequel to David Ayer’s 2016 DC Extended Universe film.
Given the director’s experience with action films, though, it seems likely O’Connor can create an exciting Suicide Squad sequel.
Variety is reporting Gavin O’Connor (The Accountant, Warrior) is officially on board to write Suicide Squad 2, with an eye for him to direct the sequel as well.
In fact, it seemed Collet-Serra was the frontrunner to direct Suicide Squad 2, before passing on the opportunity to take on Jungle Cruise.
