Suicide Squad

It’s happened, Warner Bros. have officially released the hotly anticipated trailer for SUICIDE SQUAD, feeding our thirst for the super hero (or rather super villain) phenomenon that is currently sweeping our shores.

The film is based on the DC comic of the same name by John Ostrander and focuses on a secret government agency led by Amanda Waller (Viola Davis) who hire imprisoned super villains, otherwise known as the ‘Suicide Squad’. The force carry out dangerous tasks in return for shortened prison sentences.

SUICIDE SQUAD

SUICIDE SQUAD is written and directed by David Ayer and features an ensemble cast of; Will Smith as Dead shot, Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn, Cara Delevingne as Enchantress, Jai Courtney as Boomerang, Joel Kinnaman as Rick Flag, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje as Killer Croc and Karen Fukuhara as Katana. The film also marks the return of the fan-favorite villain The Joker, portrayed by Jared Leto.

The trailer is set against a haunting rendition of the Bee Gees song ‘I Started a Joke‘, as we are given brief shots of the imprisoned villains and finally the revealing of The Joker as he utters the lines, “I’m not going to kill you… just hurt you, really, really bad”.
