Suicide Squad

August 5th can’t come soon enough, the day is marked on our calendar, and seeing as it’s officially 2016 my count down to David Ayer’s SUICIDE SQUAD has begun (if I’m correct this would be 205 days).

David Ayer has shared a picture of his #skwad on Twitter.

The image shows Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn, Will Smith as Deadshot, Karen Fukuhara as Katana, Jai Courtney as Boomerang, Joel Kinnaman as Rick Flagg and Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje as Killer Croc looking dangerous and ready for action.

Created by Robert Kanigher and Ross Andru back in 1959, the Suicide Squad team has included countless DC villains among its ranks, including Deadshot, Captain Boomerang, Bane, Killer Frost, Poison Ivy, Count Vertigo, Deathstroke, and Harley Quinn. The CW’s “Arrow” introduced their own version of the team in the most recent season of the series and the recent animated film, Batman: Assault on Arkham, offered another version of the team.

Ayer’s SUICIDE SQUADE is one of the first films to be released as part of the DC  Extended Universe. The film follows BATMAN v SUPERMAN:DAWN OF JUSTICE to be released in March 2016, as well as a whole other host of films in the pipeline such as WONDER WOMAN (2017), THE FLASH (2018) and AQUAMAN (2018) – I can barely contain my excitement.

Are you looking forward to watching the film as much as we are? Share your thoughts below!
