Well, there’s one less soldier on the DC Films battlefield.

“Sgt. Rock,” to be directed by Luca Guadagnino and written by his “Challengers” and “Queer” collaborator Justin Kuritzkes, is no longer moving forward at Warner Bros. and DC Films, TheWrap has exclusively learned. Colin Farrell, already a part of the DC Comics universe thanks to his role as The Penguin in Matt Reeves’ “The Batman” and the HBO spinoff series “The Penguin,” was in talks to play the title character after Daniel Craig dropped out.

The issue, one insider noted, came down to scheduling. The film, which would require a lot of exterior shoots, needed to start production this summer and wasn’t going to make its date. Budget didn’t appear to be an issue — it was meant to come in under $70 million, which for a high-priority comic book adaptation, is a bargain.

I read these comics a kid.

Same. This and Haunted Tank.

The covers were always as misleading as an Atari 2600 cartridge artwork but the stories were good enough not to care. When Sgt Rock fired his gun, the go-to sound effect was “BUDDA! BUDDA!”
