It has not yet been revealed who will voice Starro in The Suicide Squad, though Gunn recently confirmed that his fellow Marvel Cinematic Universe veteran Taika Waititi, who will be among the film's cast, would not be doing the job. Gunn also revealed why Starro is one of the film's villains, stating that the character is "hilarious because he's ridiculous."

"He's a giant, cerulean blue starfish, but he's also fucking terrifying," Gunn said. "When I was a kid I thought that was the scariest thing of all time… and I think that exemplifies what this movie is: it is ridiculous and it's also terrifying, and serious. So he works really well as the villain of the movie -- as one of the villains, actually."

Written and directed by Gunn, The Suicide Squad arrives in theaters and on HBO Max Aug. 6.
