It sounds like Warner Bros. has been listening to the people who have been complaining that “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice” wasn’t very fun. The next film on the DC release schedule is “Suicide Squad” and many people assumed”Suicide Squad” would have a lighter tone, but apparently that’s not the case. Following the criticism of “Batman v Superman” Warner Bros. is on a mission to add some humor to “Suicide Squad” and according to Birth Movies Death, reshoots for the film have already started.
Warner Bros. apparently took notice when fans had a positive reaction to the “Suicide Squad” trailer which featured Queen’s “Bohemian Rhapsody” playing in the background. A source previously reached out to BMD and noted that the film isn’t as funny as the trailer made it out to be, and that every joke from the film was featured in the clip. Audiences seemed to love the trailer and now Warner Bros. is spending tens of millions of dollars to put more humorous moments in the movie and give it a lighter tone.
“Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice” has proven to be a very divisive film with the most common complaint being that the tone is too dark. It looks like Warner Bros. is making a serious effort to answer those complaints going forward. “Justice League” has already been confirmed to be lighter than “Batman v Superman” and similar statements have been made about the upcoming “Aquaman” film. So it sounds like the DC film universe is going to be a lot more “fun” going forward.
