James Gunn’s The Suicide Squad is out now and features a vast cast of characters. The movie opens with Savant (Michael Rooker) in Belle Reve before Amanda Waller (Viola Davis) recruits him for Task Force X. Recently, Gunn has been answering some fan questions on social media and revealed how they filmed the fight scene between Peacemaker (John Cena) and Rick Flag (Joel Kinnaman) that was seen through Peacemaker’s helmet. This led to another fan asking about the opening shot of Savant, and Gunn shared that the moment wasn’t originally in his storyboards.
Yes, the opening shot of Savant was practical. Also, it wasn’t in my storyboards. I just saw that Rooker looked cool bouncing the ball in the puddle reflection & said to Henry Braham, our DP, “Hey do you still have that wheel rig in the camera truck?” #TheSuicideSquad https://t.co/3zYgyrQZQT
