“The Suicide Squad” (2021)

The first trailer has arrived for James Gunn’s “The Suicide Squad” at Warner Bros. Pictures along with a bunch of character posters.

The new film, a part-sequel/part-reboot and very different work to the 2016 film sees Colonel Rick Flag, Bloodsport, Peacemaker, Captain Boomerang, Ratcatcher 2, Savant, King Shark, Blackguard, Javelin and Harley Quinn armed and dropped into the enemy-infused jungle island of Corto Maltese.

With militant adversaries and guerrilla forces at every turn, the Squad is on a search-and-destroy mission while Amanda Waller’s techies track their every movement and threaten to kill them if they get out of line.

Viola Davis, Idris Elba, Margot Robbie, John Cena, Jai Courtney, Joel Kinnaman, Peter Capaldi, Nathan Fillion, Taika Waititi, Michael Rooker, Sean Gunn, Alice Braga, David Dastmalchian, Pete Davidson, Joaquín Cosío, Maylin Ng, Flula Borg, Juan Deigo Botto, Storm Reid, Jennifer Holland, Tinashe Kajese, Daniela Melchior, Steve Agee and Julio Ruiz star.
