Last week we heard the news that Tom Hardy had dropped out of Warner Bros/DC Comics’ seriously star-studded supervillain team-up movie Suicide Squad. At the time, the reason for Hardy’s departure was assumed to be scheduling related, but recently it’s emerged that that fan-favourite actor apparently took issue with some details of the finished script, which he only saw after signing …
Warner Bros’ answer to the behemoth that is Marvel is the much anticipated Suicide Squad, a movie that has some serious A-list talent.
