SUICIDE SQUAD Trailer
Here’s a worthwhile bet. Can Warner Bros.’ attempt to match Marvel’s success actually be successful without establishing the rest of DC’s pantheon of heroes? I know my answer but maybe you have more faith. Now they’re trying to push an intellectual property with great potential as a showcase for the villains of the franchise. As the story goes, a secret government agency enlists villains to do their dirty work recognized as the “Suicide Squad.” Suddenly, we have whole new casting for Joker and Batman in addition to the actual “Suicide Squad”, just to name a few changes. They’re yet to establish these characters as standalone entities especially with entries such as Captain Boomerang and Deadshot in the mix as well. Then again, my curiosity gets the better of me.
Suicide Squad is directed by David Ayer and stars Will Smith, Margot Robbie and Jared Leto. It comes out August 5th 2016 for both the U.S. and U.K. For the full list of release dates, click here.
