David Ayer has revealed a new look at the Parademons that he intended to use for his 2015 superhero film, Suicide Squad.
Earlier today, David Ayer answered a question from a fan regarding a series of images that looked suspiciously like Parademons. The fan asked if the creatures in the images were intended to be the minions of the Suicide Squad‘s primary antagonist, Enchantress. David Ayer revealed that they were and that they were in fact Parademons, the foot soldiers of Darkseid.
Like many of the films that would follow it, David Ayer’s Suicide Squad was subjected to several changes following the mixed reception of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. Like many of these films, however, it can be difficult to tell where David Ayer’s original vision for the film ended and where the studio’s version of it began. But because of the director’s Tweets, we know know that, at least at one point, Suicide Squad would have had Parademons serving as one of the main antagonists. Now, thanks to David Ayer, we have a new look at the Parademons that would have appeared in the film.
