The filmmaker has revealed that both the films are unlikely to be affected due to COVID-19. Gunn recently took to Twitter to share that there was no reason for Suicide Squad 2 release date to move, because they were 'on or ahead' of the schedule.

He added that they were ‘extremely fortunate’ to have completed the shooting, and the rest can be managed, thanks to a post production team and studio with ‘foresight’ that will take on editing from homes. Gunn also said he was working on the cut at the moment and though editing has been ‘smooth’, he said other factors like the release of posters, trailers have been ‘slow.’

When a netizen asked if that would also be the case with Guardians of the Galaxy 3, the director answered that the plans were the same as it was before the coronavirus outbreak.
