The Plot

The storyline is similar to The Suicide Squad 2016, in which a group of high-profile criminals were recruited by the Government to destroy Nazi-era prisons.

The disagreement can lead to consequences, so the team decides to go on the mission. The mission is filled with lots of obstacles but the giant telepathic alien starfish named Starro makes their mission almost impossible.

Weird and wacky comedy is expected because the director cap is on James Gunn.
