Margot Robbie has revealed that a 20-hour cut of Quentin Tarantino's Once Upon a Time in...Hollywood exists. That's going to require a bladder of steel and lots of popcorn. 

"There’s a 20-hour cut of Once Upon a Time in…Hollywood that would… there’s so much more that you didn’t get to see, that we shot that was amazing, and for a million reasons obviously, can’t make the cut," she told Variety.

Robbie dropped the bombshell during a discussion about one of her other projects David Ayer’s Suicide Squad, which the studio changed to have a more light-hearted tone than Ayer would have liked. And Robbie has bad news for anyone wanting an Ayer Cut of that DC team-up. 

"Not to my knowledge, there is not David Ayer cut that is in the works or going to be released," she said, joking: "For personal reasons, I’d love to watch the five-hour cut of every movie I’ve ever done."

There is still hope that a cut of David Ayer’s Suicide Squad could one day exist, as Zack Snyder's Justice League has proven these things can happen. The buzz already surrounding its sequel – written and directed by James Gunn – has been on the rise since the first trailer debuted. The Suicide Squad will premiere simultaneously in theaters and on HBO Max later this summer.
