The 'Verse!

Episode 20: We Breakdown 'The Suicide Squad' and Marvel's 'What If...?'


Listen Later

The squad reviews James Gunn’s THE Suicide Squad with surprisingly mixed reactions, a poetry slam, and both spoiler-FREE and spoiler-FILLED discussions. Listen to hear our final grade of this violent, needle drop-filled successor to the much-maligned 2016 film. And of course let us know your thoughts on Twitter @TheVerseCast! Would you give this movie an A+ or an F?

We follow up our review with a discussion of the first installment of Marvel’s What If…? series streaming on Disney+. Have you ever wondered how superhero history would change if Peggy Carter were the first Avenger instead of Steve Rodgers? How would the classic Stars and Bars suit look if it had a Union Jack across the front instead?

As your one-stop shop for all the cinematic universe news you need to know, we cover Chloe Bennet’s exit from CW’s live-action Powerpuff Girls series, The Mandalorian’s season two announcement, Better Call Saul star Bob Odenkirk’s recovery, and Idris Elba’s new role as Knuckles in the upcoming Sonic the Hedgehog sequel.

Our discussions take place in peace as Emilia’s locked our cheeky robot Kronsworth in a closet. Don’t mind the murderous beeps and whirs.

Follow us on Twitter @TheVerseCast where we post news, announcements about the pod, and collect listener questions. You can also follow @Screenradar on Twitter, Facebook, & Instagram.
