Director David Ayer is no stranger to interacting with fans on social media. The Suicide Squad director often challenges haters as well as dropping nuggets of information about the film he had intended to make.
The journey which 2016’s Suicide Squad took to the big screen has been well documented. But many aspects of the film’s original story have been lost in time. Over the Christmas period Ayer dropped some very interesting tidbits about the machine Enchantress (Cara Delevingne) was seen constructing in the film.
It was supposed to be a boom tube as she was under control of a motherbox. All the Apokalypse elements were stripped out late in the game. The machine concept was an attempt to create a ticking clock and world threat. https://t.co/NTDRrAv4rx

“It was supposed to be a boom tube” said Ayer “as she was under control of a motherbox. All the Apokalypse elements were stripped out late in the game. The machine concept was an attempt to create a ticking clock and world threat.”
Ayer had previously confirmed that the film was set to feature Steppenwolf, that character would go on to be the villain in Zack Snyder and Joss Whedon’s critically maligned Justice League film.
Had this original plan come to pass, could we have seen the Justice League and Suicide Squad members team up in the originally announced Justice League Part 2 in order to take on Darkseid?
