Warner Bros. Pictures has released a brand new trailer for director David Ayer's upcoming film Suicide Squad (2016), starring Margot Robbie, Jai Courtney, Will Smith, Ben Affleck, Jared Leto, and Joel Kinnaman. Currently, the film is set to open in theaters across the United States on August 5.
Synopsis: 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?
Written and directed by Ayer based on the characters from DC Comics, the film also stars Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje ("Thor: The Dark World"), Jay Hernandez ("Takers"), Ike Barinholtz ("Neighbors"), and Scott Eastwood ("Fury"). It is produced by Charles Roven and Richard Suckle, with Zack Snyder, Deborah Snyder, Colin Wilson and Geoff Johns serving as executive producers.
Ayer's behind-the-scenes creative team includes director of photography Roman Vasyanov ("Fury," "End of Watch"), production designer Oliver Scholl ("Edge of Tomorrow"), editor John Gilroy ("Pacific Rim"), costume designer Kate Hawley ("The Hobbit" Trilogy) and Oscar-nominated visual effects supervisor Jerome Chen ("Stuart Little," "Fury," "The Amazing Spider-Man" films). The music is by Oscar-winning composer Steven Price ("Gravity").
