David Ayer says he’s DONE with DC completely after not getting his way with a Director’s Cut of Suicide Squad. Join the club, David. Judging by the box office receipts, EVERYONE is done with DC these days.
Additional Context:
David Ayer, the director of the 2016 film “Suicide Squad,” has recently been in the news for his comments regarding the much-discussed “Ayer Cut” of the movie. Ayer confirmed on social media that a scene involving a confrontation between the Suicide Squad and the Joker, played by Jared Leto, was indeed shot and edited but was not included in the final film. This revelation added fuel to the ongoing #ReleaseTheAyerCut movement, which has been gaining traction among fans who believe that Ayer’s original vision for the movie was significantly altered by Warner Bros.
Despite this growing movement, Ayer has declared that he is “done” with DC and has expressed resignation over the studio’s lack of interest in releasing his director’s cut of “Suicide Squad.” Responding to fans on social media, Ayer mentioned that nothing about the situation feels good and that it’s time to move on. He emphasized the need to protect his heart more moving forward, indicating a sense of closure and a desire to leave the past behind.
Ayer’s comments reflect a broader sentiment of frustration and disappointment, not just with the studio’s handling of his film but also with the challenges directors face in the film industry. His experience with “Suicide Squad” has been a point of contention and discussion among fans, especially in the context of director’s cuts and studio interference. The situation also parallels the campaign for the release of the Snyder Cut of “Justice League,” which ultimately saw success. However, in Ayer’s case, it appears he has accepted that his version of “Suicide Squad” will not see the light of day.
Overall, Ayer’s recent comments and decision to step away from the discussion around the “Ayer Cut” highlight the complexities and often contentious nature of creative control in major film productions.
