The Suicide Squad director James Gunn held an impromptu Instagram Q&A this weekend, and among the questions he was asked by fans was which cast members ended up stealing the show with unscripted lines. It's widely known that the filmmaker allows improvisation on his sets, but the names he singled out were both expected and surprising.

John Cena, Pete Davidson, and Flula Borg were all mentioned by Gunn, and while Davidson isn't surprising given his comedy background, Cena stealing the show in this way is a shocker.

The former WWE wrestler has received mixed reviews for his acting roles thus far, but Gunn has clearly drawn a surprising performance from him (just as he did with Dave Bautista in Guardians of the Galaxy). The trio's roles have still only been rumored, and are not confirmed. 

As for Davidson, he revealed in a recent interview to promote King of Staten Island that, "I was in a big, uncomfortable costume. I think that would be a big difference. I got to hold Glocks and stuff like that." That will be quite the departure for the actor, but definitely something to talk about! 

More details, and possibly footage, from The Suicide Squad are expected to be revealed later this summer.

Watching Davidson bite it in the first few minutes of the movie would make up a little for his asshattery.

I'm way more optimistic about this than I was the first one at this point in production. The is one thing that just irks me. We have never seen Mongul, not one mention of Warworld, but out of left field, here's Mongal just showing up like it's nothing. It's just weird to me.

@tmp3 - one of them makes 500 make a wish kids appearances and the other is a total d-bag. What exactly are you a fan of? Davidson's amazing acting range? Cena is the man.

@Makiveli21 - I just don't think Cena's a very good actor, it ain't that deep

@Makiveli21 - I met Pete Davidson in Atlanta last year and he's definitely not a d-bag.

John Cena stealing the scene is a shocker? Did you see him in Judd Apatow's Trainwreck (also including Pete Davidson, as well as Lebron James in a hysterical role as himself)?

@MosquitoFarmer - and that was improv, too.

John Cena is known to be hilarious, not sure why it's a huge shocker. The one time Josh should've written the article... 2020 strikes again.

@adamcawa - of course it would've ended with Top 10 times John Cena was hilarious!
