The Suicide Squad Gets Teaser Featuring New Footage

A new TV spot for The Suicide Squad has been released. This latest promo includes some footage not featured in the full trailer for the upcoming DC movie.

The teaser is short but there are a few new things to look out for. The main one--as pointed out by director James Gunn in a tweet--is that we see the Thinker speak. Played by Peter Capaldi, he tells Rick Flag (Joel Kinnaman), "that's suicide." Elsewhere, there's new footage of Harley Quinn (Margot Robbie) running across a building as it collapses, Peacemaker (John Cena) stating, "there's nothing like a bloodbath to start the day," and Savant (Michael Rooker) letting out a really big scream. Check it out below:

The Suicide Squad also stars Jai Courtney as Captain Boomerang, Viola Davis as Amanda Waller, Idris Elba as Bloodsport, David Dastmalchian as Polka-Dot Man, Sylvester Stallone as King Shark, Alice Braga as Sol Soria, and Pete Davidson as Blackguard.

The movie is scheduled to hit theaters and HBO Max on August 6, 2021. Ahead of that, you can find out why none of your favorite characters are safe, get caught up on John Cena's already-filming HBO Max spin-off show, Peacemaker, and find out everything we know about The Suicide Squad.

There are plenty of other new DC movies on the way too. The Batman arrives in March 2022, with The Flash, Aquaman 2, Shazam: Fury of the Gods, and Black Adam following over the next couple of years.
