Summary

  • Director David Ayer tried to explain the confusing post-credit scene in Suicide Squad but his explanation is unhelpful.

  • The scene involving Bruce Wayne and Waller was shot during principal photography, not a reshoot.

  • Ayer claims that Wayne’s line was meant to hint at the Justice League, but this explanation doesn’t make much sense.

Suicide Squad director David Ayer is attempting to explain the film’s baffling post-credit scene, but his explanation isn’t much help. The star-studded Suicide Squad was a DC Universe film that focused on villains, rather than heroes. With Harley Quinn (Margot Robbie), Deadshot (Will Smith), Captain Boomerang (Jai Courtney), and other criminals working together for Amanda Waller (Viola Davis), the Suicide Squad took on their first enemy to massive fanfare. The film was a huge success, boasting $747 million at the box office, though it earned negative reception among critics and audiences alike.

A major piece of Suicide Squad‘s struggles was that its post-credit scene didn’t make any sense. With Bruce Wayne promising that his friends would help him take down Waller if she stepped out of line, the lore of the entire DCU was completely muddled.
