DC's Suicide Squad - the movie
Yet another comic property is heading to the big screen, with Warner Bros. optioning the rights to DC Comics' Suicide Squad.
According to Variety, Justin Marks (the forthcoming Street Fighter and 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea) is penning the screenplay, with producer Dan Lin planning to turn the comic into a franchise.
First created in 1959, Suicide Squad centres on a team of incarcerated supervillians who are handed a second chance by the government. Charged with a task too dangerous for superheroes, they must bury their various hatchets and work together to succeed.
Steven Gilchrist is co-producing together with Jon Berg at Warner and Gregory Noveck at DC.
