One of the most-anticipated sequels in Marvel’s arsenal went mostly unmentioned, however, as there was almost no discussion of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3.
When Gunn was temporarily fired from Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 following the controversy surrounding some of his old, offensive tweets, he took a gig directing the Suicide Squad sequel.
What we do know for sure is Thor won’t be in The Suicide Squad, Gunn has already been very clear about that.
Eventually, Disney and Marvel relented, and decided to bring Gunn back to make Guardians Vol. 3 after all — but Gunn didn’t bail on The Suicide Squad.
