The new Suicide Squad trailer is here and it's incredible

The blistering new trailer for anti-hero epic Suicide Squad is here and it doesn’t disappoint.

Partially soundtracked by Sweet’s ‘The Ballroom Blitz’, we get more tantalising snapshots of Jared Leto’s Joker alongside high octane action and general demented behaviour from Will Smith as Deadshot, Joel Kinnaman as Rick Flagg, Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn, Jai Courtney as Boomerang and Cara Delevingne as Enchantress.

Based on the evil DC Comics team of the same name, the David Ayer directed movie is set for release this August.

The plot sees a covert government agency run by Amanda Waller (Viola Davis) create a task force of supervillains who are forced to run a series of perilous and madcap missions in exchange for shorter prison sentences.
