Sylvester Stallone has joined the cast of The Suicide Squad in a mystery role!

Director James Gunn took to Instagram to share the news that Stallone is involved in the upcoming sequel, although its unclear what role Stallone is filling in the movie. Since filming on The Suicide Squad concluded in February 2020 and the film is currently in post-production, its possible re-shoots have secretly taken place, now that productions can resume under COVID-19 secure restrictions. Or maybe Stallone is involved on the producing side?
