TL;DR Summary

Warner Bros. executives had high financial expectations for Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League despite its troubled development, which included shifting creative visions, a pivot to a new genre, and bottlenecks caused by former creative director Sefton Hill.

Rocksteady Studios is now focusing on a director's cut of Hogwarts Legacy and pitching a new single-player project, with no major overhaul for Suicide Squad planned.
