James Gunn’s Goofy Suicide Squad Revealed In Set Pics

suicide-squad-goofy

If you were hoping James Gunn’s Suicide Squad was going to be different than his Guardians of the Galaxy movies, sorry to disappoint, but that doesn’t seem to be the case.

James Gunn, who has built his entire career on doing non-original goofy and parodic takes on various things now apparently follows the same rinse repeat method with The Suicide Squad.

The first set pics have hit the net revealing the actors in costume including Nathan Fillion and Jai Courtney.

“So far I don’t know what to think about Suicide Squad 2’s costumes…” one Twitter user posted.

The Suicide Squad more comedic than serious?

It appears that James Gunn is going with a similar approach to what he did with Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy, which was a drastically different route than the source material, as the comics were much better, darker and grittier. The Suicide Squad comics are rather gritty themselves, I believe, but these costumes come off more comedic than serious. 

Of course, it could be entirely possible that some of these goofy characters are the ones that killed off, so bear that in mind.

More pics are up at Just Jared.
