Considering the current situation of the industry due to the pandemic, several production houses have temporarily halted film production.

Previously this month rumors around the filming of Black Panther 2 and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.3 circulated the internet.

However, it’s unlikely filming would resume soon, one of the reasons being James Gunn’s commitment to The Suicide Squad.

The director pointed out several times about his prior commitment to The Suicide Squad, insistent on finishing all the work on the film, following which he’ll start with GotG Vol. 3
