SDCC ‘Suicide Squad’ trailer reveals ‘bad versus evil’
“This isn’t a movie about good versus evil,” Will Smith said in Hall H to thousands of SDCC fans. “This is a movie about bad versus evil.”
Reportedly, that’s what director David Ayer told Smith and now fans get a very brief glimpse of that in this final trailer, dropped for SDCC attendees and then online. Watch it below.
and so far, we haven’t seen much of the evil threat the team of bad guys goes up against. The latest and final trailer, which is three minutes in length and shows a good amount of new footage, features a slightly better look at the film’s big bad.
Smith stars as Deadshot, Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn, Jared Leto as The Joker, Jai Courtney as Boomerang, Jay Hernandez as El Diablo, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje as Killer Croc, Cara Delevingne as Enchantress, Adam Beach as Slipknot, Karen Fukuhara as Katana, and Scott Eastwood and Stranger Things‘ David Harbour in an unknown role.
Viola Davis plays Amanda Waller who pulls the “Squad” together and Joel Kinnaman as Rick Flag.
Here’s the official synopsis for Suicide Squad:
It feels good to be bad… Assemble a team of the world’s most dangerous, incarcerated Super-Villains, provide them with the most powerful arsenal at the government’s disposal, and send them off on a mission to defeat an enigmatic, insuperable entity. U.S. intelligence officer Amanda Waller has determined only a secretly convened group of disparate, despicable individuals with next to nothing to lose will do. However, once they realize they weren’t picked to succeed but chosen for their patent culpability when they inevitably fail, will the Suicide Squad resolve to die trying, or decide it’s every man for himself?
Suicide Squad opens in 2D, 3D, and IMAX 3D on August 5th.
