The first 'Suicide Squad' trailer is out, and it looks absolutely absurd (in a good way)
Can Warner Bros. get this movie right?
Warner Bros. released the first trailer for its soft reboot of Suicide Squad, and the movie seems to lean heavily into absurdity with wild costumes, crazy CGI (see: King Shark) and ridiculous humor.
After one trailer, it’s completely unclear what the plot will be — but the movie will include a star-studded cast of oddball heroes and anti-heroes, who are intent upon completing … a “mission.” What mission? I literally have no idea, but it appears to involve a guns, explosions, a kaiju and an extremely charming Idris Elba. (Sign me up.) Director James Gunn is bringing his silly emotional tone — and his on-point soundtrack choices — that he developed with the Guardians of the Galaxy movies.
An important warning: There is explicit language in this trailer. Here’s the railer.
