In 2016, Eastwood had a role in director David Ayer&#8217;s original film as &#8220;GQ&#8221; Edwards, a Navy SEAL Lieutenant who assists Rick Flag (Joel Kinnaman) with the group&#8217;s mission. That role was originally supposed to go to Shia LeBeouf, though Ayer saw great potential in Eastwood and insisted on casting him for the part. In a new interview with <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.insider.com\/scott-eastwood-suicide-squad-sequel-shia-labeouf-fight-2022-2\">Insider<\/a>, Eastwood explains how committed Ayer was to bringing him in.<br \/>\n <!-- No winning ad found for zone: word count #1! --><!-- No winning ad found for zone: Below First Paragraph! --><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\n&#8220;He basically was like, &#8216;Come on this journey with me. I&#8217;m going to make you look like a badass. I&#8217;m going to make your character pop,'&#8221; Eastwood said of Ayer&#8217;s pitch to him. &#8220;I didn&#8217;t even know what the character was at the time&#8230; I have talked to David, and I know my character got a lot more love in the Ayer cut.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The &#8220;Ayer cut&#8221; Eastwood mentions here is referring to the alternate cut of <em>Suicide Squad<\/em> that existed before studio-mandated changes drastically affected the final cut. Ayer has spoken about how lots of footage he intended to be shown wound up axed, with characters like Jared Leto&#8217;s Joker having their screen time drastically reduced. The same was apparently true for Eastwood, who doesn&#8217;t appear for very long in the theatrical release of the movie.<br \/>\n<!-- Zone: character count repeatable. --><\/p>\n<div id=\"adsninja-ad-zone-MW-Reg-Org\" class=\"adsninja-ad-zone\">\n<div id=\"dynamically-injected-refresh-ad-zone-MW-Reg-Org\" class=\"dynamically-injected-refresh-ad-zone\">\n<div class=\"ad-current\">\n<div id=\"ad-zone-container-MW-Reg-Org\" class=\"ad-zone-container ad-zone-container-content-character-count-repeatable-1\" data-no-fill-collapsable=\"false\"><strong class=\"ad-zone-advertising-tag\">MOVIEWEB VIDEO OF THE DAY<\/strong><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p> <!-- No winning ad found for zone: word count #2! --><br \/>\nIn any case, Eastwood might have had more to do in <em>The Suicide Squad<\/em>, James Gunn&#8217;s 2021 follow-up that serves as a sequel by bringing back a handful of the same characters. However, he was apprehensive about signing on when the offer to appear in that movie came his way. Eastwood says the money offer was low and that there wasn&#8217;t a script for him to look at, so he had trouble committing to the project. After calling father Clint for advice, Eastwood ended up turning the sequel down.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\n&#8220;They didn&#8217;t want to pay me any money for those next <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/watch-movies-tv-seriess\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"8\" title=\"Watch Movies &amp; TV Series\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">movies<\/a> and &#8230; they didn&#8217;t have another script for the other movie, so I didn&#8217;t know what I was going to be signing myself up for. I called my dad. I said, &#8216;They don&#8217;t want to pay me.&#8217; He said, &#8216;If it feels like they really need you and if it&#8217;s a good part, then do it. If not, then don&#8217;t.&#8217; I didn&#8217;t have the answer to those questions at that time. I wasn&#8217;t going to have the answers, and they were pressuring me. So ultimately it didn&#8217;t happen.&#8221; <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><!-- No winning ad found for zone: word count #3! --><br \/>\n<span class=\"related-single\">Related: Wolverine Hopeful Scott Eastwood Thinks Fans Should Start Petition Calling for Him to Play Logan<\/span><br \/>\n <!-- No winning ad found for zone: native in content! --><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"scott-eastwood-will-play-wolverine-in-the-mcu-if-some-fans-get-their-way\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Scott_Eastwood_Will_Play_Wolverine_in_the_MCU_If_Some_Fans_Get_Their_Way\"><\/span> Scott Eastwood Will Play Wolverine in the MCU If Some Fans Get Their Way<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<div class=\"body-img landscape\">\n<div class=\"responsive-img img-article-item\" style=\"padding-bottom:56.25%\" title=\"\">\n<figure>\n <picture>\n <!--[if IE 9]>\n <video style=\"display: none;\"><![endif]--><source media=\"(min-width: 1024px)\" sizes=\"750px\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static1.moviewebimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/scott-eastwood-wolverine-by-bosslogic.jpg?q=50&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=750&amp;dpr=1.5\"\/><source media=\"(min-width: 768px)\" sizes=\"943px\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static1.moviewebimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/scott-eastwood-wolverine-by-bosslogic.jpg?q=50&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=943&amp;dpr=1.5\"\/><source media=\"(min-width: 481px)\" sizes=\"767px\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static1.moviewebimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/scott-eastwood-wolverine-by-bosslogic.jpg?q=50&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=767&amp;dpr=1.5\"\/><source media=\"(min-width: 0px)\" sizes=\"480px\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static1.moviewebimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/scott-eastwood-wolverine-by-bosslogic.jpg?q=50&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=480&amp;dpr=1.5\"\/><!--[if IE 9]><\/video><![endif]--><br \/>\n<img width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" class=\"lazyload\" alt=\"scott-eastwood-wolverine-by-bosslogic\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/static1.moviewebimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/scott-eastwood-wolverine-by-bosslogic.jpg\"\/>\n <\/picture><figcaption class=\"body-img-caption\">BossLogic<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Scott Eastwood is possibly finished with the DCEU, but he could be making a mark in the MCU.
