Arrowverse’s Enchantress And Ayer’s ‘Director’s Cut’ Could Make ‘Suicide Squad’ Better

There are several plots DCEU’s “Suicide Squad” took out from the comic version — one, in particular, was how underpowered the character “Enchantress” was.

The director also lamented about the treatment of his movie version and even referred to it as "unfinished." He shared that there was a collection of cuts he could add to the film to make it better than the one fans got on the movie screen and that it would be relatively easy to complete.

Ayer also gave his take on the character of June Moon and Enchantress, saying that her transformation — Enchantress’ hand gripping June Moon before transformation — was his idea. He also revealed that there was more footage exploring their relationship.
