Suicide Squad is about a group of villains being forced together to stop a greater threat, but what exactly is that threat? The trailers for David Ayer's Suicide Squad have mostly hinted at the Joker (Jared Leto) being the big bad of the film to steer the audience away from figuring out the plot. It appears that the film's big bad has supernatural abilities and Task Force X couldn't be more confused as they head into battle in these two new stills featured in this summer's edition of Total Film.
Suicide Squad hits theaters August 5th, 2016.
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?
