Ahead of the release of Suicide Squad this August, director David Ayer is already lining up his next project and it will reunite him with star Will Smith. Penned by Max Landis (Chronicle), Bright is a police thriller which is also likely to include Joel Edgerton in a leading role.
However, while the movie is described as being in the same vein as End of Watch, it reportedly takes place in a world where Orcs and fairies live among humans…in the present day! It sounds like a pretty unique movie then, but even more exciting than that news is the fact that Warner Bros. are apparently already developing a Suicide Squad sequel.

Still, this is definitely a good sign for the Suicide Squad franchise, a movie which will be the first comic book adaptation to put the focus on the bad guys rather than superheroes.
