The lead-up to James Gunn directing The Suicide Squad (a “relaunch” of the Jared Leto movie) was already tumultuous, with Disney caving to troll pressure and firing Gunn from Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 3 for some offensive jokes he had made (and apologized for) years ago, then Warner Bros. stepped in and asked him to write and then direct the supervillain team-up movie, and shortly after that he was re-hired to make the third Guardians movie. Gunn announced this weekend that filming had wrapped on The Suicide Squad, but in a post commemorating the occasion, he explained that things didn’t get any easier once he got on set.
