The Suicide Squad trailer

While The Suicide Squad trailer gives us a sneak peek into the film and introduces to us multiple new characters, like Bloodsport, Peacemaker, King Shark, Ratcatcher 2, etc., it also brings back some of the old characters from David Ayer’s Suicide Squad (2016). These include Rick Flag, Amanda Waller, Captain Boomerang, and everyone’s favourite, Harley Quinn.

The trailer opens with a scene of some of the villain-turned-heroes, going on a rescue mission to save Harley Quinn, only to reach there and find out that she has saved herself. From the very first scene of the trailer, the madness comes into the picture. While the trailer keeps the main plot unrevealed, it proceeds to tell us that Amanda Waller will be assigning the villains a big task to save the world, which they accept. The trailer is filled with action, madness, and some great punchlines.
