How fun! It also gives us a little glimpse into the squad’s mission: something called “Project Starfish,” which quite literally has to do with a giant, destructive star-shaped monster wreaking havoc upon Earth.

The trailer also spends a tiny bit of extra time on Pete Davidson’s character Blackguard, Daniel Melchior’s Ratcatcher 2, and an anthropomorphic weasel named, uh, Weasel (Sean Gunn)-whom, it is revealed, has actually killed 27 children. The trailer opens with an extended sequence of Bloodsport which showcases a moment between him and his daughter Tyla (Storm Reid), and one in which he’s successfully recruited into the titular Suicide Squad by head of Task Force X, Amanda Waller (Viola Davis). Whether it was truly leaked or just a gimmick, this new trailer offers more of a look at Idris Elba’s character, Bloodsport. While it was planned for the trailer to only run in ads between other YouTube videos and then be released wide by Gunn later in the day, an unlisted trailer video began to circulate online, entitled “The Suicide Squad – Early Access Trailer Do Not Share.” Gunn then tweeted that the cast was to blame for leaking the trailer early.

HBO Max has already ordered a Peacemaker spinoff straight-to-series, with Cena and Agee reprising their roles.The newest trailer for James Gunn’s The Suicide Squad is here, and was allegedly leaked online earlier today by the cast. And expect to see more from this refreshed franchise in the future. If you're fully vaccinated, I think this is one to see on the big screen, if you safely can. The Suicide Squad hits theaters and debuts on HBO Max on August 6, 2021. ("I mean, he's not harmless, he's killed 27 children, but you know.") We also learn that our heroes' mission is to destroy all evidence of the mysterious "Project Starfish," which probably explains the colorful giant starfish-like kaiju they end up battling. In terms of new footage, we get an inter-squad debate over what kind of dog Weasel might be-TDK guesses Afghan hound, Harley is hoping for werewolf-with Flag assuring them Weasel is harmless. We also learn that Bloodsport is in prison because he put Superman in the ICU with the help of a kryptonite bullet, so he's got legit badass bona fides. "I wouldn't take such extreme measures if this mission weren't more important than you could possibly imagine," Waller assures him. Waller uses Bloodsport's daughter's upcoming court case as leverage. It focuses more on Bloodsport, opening with him scrubbing floors in prison as Waller tries to recruit him for the squad. Suicide Squad (Extended Cut) Action & adventure 2016 2 hr 14 min. This latest trailer falls somewhere between jokey and dark. The second trailer, released on April Fool's Day, dispensed with the jokey tone and running gags of King Shark's gruesome eating habits ("num-num") in favor of a darker, more ominous tenor. We got to see Polka-Dot Man in action, and TDK revealed a surprising ability to separate his arms from his body. Bonus: we got a good look at the writing on the back of Harley Quinn's jacket: "Live Fast Die Clown." Then there was some standard exposition to set up the basic story: namely, that the Suicide Squad members get the same deal as before: 10 years off their sentence if they successfully complete their mission, with a nanite injection that will explode should they disobey orders in any way. It opened with a plan for Flag and his team to rescue Harley Quinn, who thwarted it by rescuing herself. Storm Reid plays Bloodsport's daughter Tyla.Įach of the prior trailers (released within a week of each other) had a very distinctive tone-a deliberate choice by Gunn. The first was a red-band trailer (pretty tame as these things go) that played up the humor. Other cast members include Polka-Dot Man (David Dastmalchian), whose trademark polka-dotted suit is actually a collection of gadgets Weasel (Sean Gunn, James' kid brother), an anthropomorphic weasel Sol Soria (Alice Braga) TDK (Nathan Fillion) Mongal (Mayling Ng) Flo Crawley (Tinashe Kajese) and Thinker (Peter Capaldi). The squad this time around includes Elba's Bloodsport, Peacemaker (John Cena), Courtney's Captain Boomerang, Ratcatcher 2 (Daniela Melchior), Savant (Michael Rooker), King Shark (voiced by Rooker's Cliffhanger co-star Sylvester Stallone), Blackguard (Pete Davidson), Javelin (Flula Borg), and everyone's favorite psycho, Harley Quinn (Margot Robbie).
