The second trailer for Suicide Squad was revealed tonight during the DC Films Special at 9:30/8:30c on The CW.
The film centers a group of supervillains, dubbed the Suicide Squad, who go on black ops missions for the government in exchange for clemency.
What Is 'Suicide Squad' & Who Are Its Members?
The Suicide Squad consists of Slipknot (Adam Beach), Captain Boomerang (Jai Courtney), Enchantress (Cara Delevingne), Katana (Karen Fukuhara), Rick Flag (Joel Kinnaman), Harley Quinn (Margot Robbie), Deadshot (Will Smith), Killer Croc (Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje), and El Diablo (Jay Hernandez).
Jared Leto is also set to star as the legendary Joker while Viola Davis plays government official Amanda Waller.
Leto previously spoke about playing The Joker and what it did to him, psychologically:
"There was definitely a period of...detachment. I took a pretty deep dive. But this was a unique opportunity and I couldn't imagine doing it another way," Leto told Empire (via Comic Book Movie). "It was fun, playing those psychological games. But at the same time it was very painful, like giving birth out of my prick hole."
The actor added, "I always get the sense that The Joker may be much older than people think. It's something different. If you don't break rules, you're not going to strike new ground. I think I'll be cooling down for the rest of my life."
Suicide Squad is scheduled for release in theaters on Aug. 5.
