Jai Courtney Explains Why Suicide Squad Is Undergoing Reshoots

Suicide Squad started filming again last week, everyone jumped to conclusions. ‘It’s being reworked to include more jokes!‘ was the prevailing theory, and one that Jai Courtney has since shot down.

The actor, who plays Captain Boomerang, sat down with ET to discuss the film and answer questions about the nature of the reshoots. Was it to insert more jokes as a response to the grim-dark tone of Batman V Superman? Apparently not. There’s plenty of that in there, Courtney says, adding that the real reason was to go back and grab more coverage of certain action sequences.
