As a child, she tore up Helen Slater’s VHS tape of Supergirl from watching her so many times. He is still exploring the DC cinematic universe.

The new installment about the villains of DC, directed and written by James Gunn, has already reached Spanish cinemas.

BEWARE, ‘SPOILERS’! The following news contains ‘spoilers’ of The Suicide Squad.

James Gunn has already warned fans that deaths would be the order of the day in The Suicide Squad. The new installment of the villains of DC, directed and written by the director behind Guardians of the Galaxy, has already reached theaters. At the beginning of the film, many characters perish upon arrival at Corto Maltese, place where they must carry out the mission entrusted by Amanda Waller (Viola Davis) in exchange for a reduced sentence.

Of all the villains featured in the film, only four of them make it to the end alive: Harley Quinn (Margot Robbie), Ratcatcher 2 (Daniela Melchior), Bloodsport (Idris Elba) y King Shark (Sylvester Stallone). To these survivors we must add, thanks to the information provided by the two post-credit scenes of the film, Weasel (Sean Gunn) y a Peacemaker (John Cena). However, Gunn has acknowledged that there was another version of the film, more “dark”, in which there was a major change.

“No. That never happened,” Gunn begins in Variety when asked if he considered killing characters like Harley Quinn or Bloodsport. “But there was a change. In the original ending of the presentation I did, one of the main characters died and one of the main characters did not die. Y the main character who died was Ratcatcher 2. She was so sweet that I felt it was too dark. It’s not that we don’t want Polka-Dot Man. We do. I just couldn’t kill Ratcatcher 2. So I gave in, “he concludes.

Ratcatcher 2 is undoubtedly the heart of the film. The character of Daniela Melchior shows an empathy and sensitivity that the rest of her classmates do not have. Although the death of Polka-Dot Man is also sad, the truth is that it is more bearable. Imagine getting excited at the moment when Ratcatcher 2 leads all the rats in the city to finish off Starro, see the ‘flashback’ of her as a child with her father Ratcatcher (Taika Waititi) and then be a witness to his death. As Gunn says, it would be something much darker.

The Suicide Squad has been collected more than $ 72 million around the world. On these lines, do not miss the trailer.
