A rumor did the rounds a while ago (we didn't run it ourselves, but it was out there) which claimed that Zatanna was set to make her big-screen debut in
The Suicide Squad, but fans of the popular DC magic-wielder will be disappointed to hear that she will not be appearing in the movie.
Director James Gunn responded to a fan's query about Zatanna over Twitter, making it clear that he never so much as considered adding her to the ensemble.
Gunn did confirm that more casting news is imminent, however.
The Suicide Squad has already assembled a massive cast of new and returning characters, so it is somewhat surprising to discover that Task Force X is going to be bolstered by even more new recruits.
As for Zatanna,
last we heard Warner Bros. did have plans for solo movie featuring the character, but there's been no updates since.
