Must Watch: David Ayer's 'Suicide Squad' Movie Comic-Con Teaser

And here we go… Warner Bros has suddenly released the Comic-Con sizzle reel teaser for David Ayer's Suicide Squad, after the footage leaked to the internet following its debut in Hall H. The studio released a statement saying: "Today we will release the same footage that has been illegally circulating on the web, in the form it was created and high quality with which it was intended to be enjoyed." It's awesome, and I'm glad they're doing this, but it also sucks that it was leaked. This looks dark and gritty and different than anything we've seen, but I am so excited for it. There's even a glimpse of Batman in this, along with all your favorite villains: Deadshot, Harley Quinn, The Joker, Enchantress, Killer Croc and Rick Flagg. Have at it.

Here's the Comic-Con teaser for David Ayer's Suicide Squad, direct from Warner Bros' YouTube:

Suicide Squad is a DC Comics movie from Warner Bros, directed by David Ayer (End of Watch, Sabotage, Fury) from a script by David Ayer based on the comic books. Will Smith is Deadshot, Joel Kinnaman is Rick Flagg, Margot Robbie is Harley Quinn, Jared Leto is Joker, Jai Courtney (Terminator: Genisys) plays Boomerang, Viola Davis plays Amanda Waller, Cara Delevingne (Anna Karenina) is Enchantress, and Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje is supposedly playing Killer Croc. All of these characters are part of a super villain team recruited by the government for secret missions. Our friend El Mayimbe is also claiming that Ike Barinholtz is playing Dr. Hugo Strange, Adam Beach is possibly Ravan and Jim Parrack is playing Deathstroke. Warner Bros will release David Ayer's Suicide Squad everywhere starting August 5th, 2016.

It looks good. Hope it doesn't disappoint. Leto's Joker is growing on me... still not completely sold though. I know as an actor he will carry his weight, just gotta wait and see.

Franklin Carpio on Jul 13, 2015

This is a nice taste, doesnt give a damn thing away. That Joker looks damn good though, good job Leto.

Jon Odishaw on Jul 13, 2015

The scene with Batman, is that Affleck or will it just be a glimpse of him? I'm confused about his involvement.

Matthew on Jul 13, 2015

Josh W on Jul 13, 2015

I don't think anyone really knows yet (that didn't work on the movie). Obviously they want us to think he's in this, but it might just be one scene, or a glimpse or two, or a few scenes. Then again, someone pointed out that The Joker's writing shows up in the Batman v Superman trailer, too. So maybe there's quite a bit of crossover between the characters in all of the upcoming DC movies.

Alex Billington on Jul 13, 2015

I thought I noticed that on one of Batmans suits.

Jon Odishaw on Jul 13, 2015

it's robin's suit, not batman's. which is awesome

Ryan on Jul 13, 2015

Oh really? that is awesome.

Jon Odishaw on Jul 13, 2015

Yeah , that's right Ryan ! Its Jason Todd's it looks like . The Robin after Dick Grayson . The Joker killed him ....until Ra's Al Ghul went looking for his corpse ,put him in the lazarus Pit and he became the anti-hero The Red Hood !

Sherlon on Jul 13, 2015

Yeh that looks to be Robins suit.....with Jokers Writing on it....It looks like Robin has already had his time in this universe.

Brian Sleider on Jul 13, 2015

That's a bold move, to erase a character before it starts. But I like the over the hill batman idea.

Jon Odishaw on Jul 13, 2015

I'm still not feeling Leto as the Joker. It looks like it might be good, and I hope it is.

Justin R on Jul 13, 2015

Really? did you see that mouth? He was either built to play the Joker or there was some CGI there.

Jon Odishaw on Jul 13, 2015

The best Joker yet.

Butchy Butch on Jul 13, 2015

I hope this film will stop people from assuming how the Joker should be played and instead show them how the Joker can be played.

Neuromancer on Jul 13, 2015

Well said.

T. Hakeem on Jul 13, 2015

Love it

BNN667 on Jul 14, 2015

He sounds like Ledger to me, but I like the look. And they lost the DAMAGED tattoo! Thank goodness.

OfficialJab on Jul 13, 2015

Are we sure about that? Cause his forehead was out of frame...

RAW_D on Jul 13, 2015

It's still there. When he's saying "...I'm not gonna kill ya.." you can see it near his hairline

Franklin Carpio on Jul 13, 2015

Well shit, I shouldn't have watched it on a small screen first. Didn't they see how dumb people thought it was? And how dumb it is? My opinion on the tattoos was always that if they had them, they should have looked backwards and upside down, like he did them to himself in the mirror or something. Or just not have a bunch of silly tattoos.

OfficialJab on Jul 13, 2015

I agree. It looks more like a juggalo then Batman's arch nemesis criminal mastermind. In Ayers defense though he and Leto have some big shoes to fill so he took it a completely different route. I'm not 100% sold but I think Leto's acting can make it work.

Franklin Carpio on Jul 13, 2015

Has anyone else seen Mr. Nobody? Jared used the SAME laugh old Nemo had and that was all I could hear. (That aside, I think I'm finally sold on him...)

Lar Rackell on Jul 13, 2015

Thats all I heard too. That movie is nothing but a showcase of Leto's acting ability. That movie is the reason i am so excited about him as the Joker.

Jon Odishaw on Jul 13, 2015

I was wary and on the side of dislike until I watched this trailer. Oh boy, I'm looking forward to it now.

Lar Rackell on Jul 13, 2015

God this looks bizarre. It may work...it may not....it looks effing crazy either way.

RAW_D on Jul 13, 2015

Looks so good! Batman's villains are some of the best things in comics, can't get enough of them. Margot Robbie is the perfect Harley, I don't care about anything else. Viola Davis sounds like a great fit. Smith makes deadshot look a vulgar mercy (as vulgar as they come), but oh well. And Leto will be a freaking riot. Also, really well put together trailer, the music is perfect and they show just enough to get us pumped. DC is finally making the superhero movies I always wanted and I'm tired of the Marvel formula, can't wait for 2016 at the movies!

Ricardo_PT on Jul 13, 2015

You're tired of the Marvel formula...putting out really good and enjoyable movies for all ages? Yea, that sounds boring.

JBroti on Jul 13, 2015

I'm totally with you and pumped for the next 2 DC films, but to kinda insist the world would be better off if Marvel didn't exist and only DC films should is just. . . insane, only a crazy person would want that, taking your fanboyism too far, just TOOOO FAR MAAAAN!!!

BNN667 on Jul 14, 2015

I never said "the world would be better off if Marvel didn't exist", where in hell did you get that from my comments? Superhero movies wouldn't be what they are today without Marvel (Sam Raimi's spiderman and Iron man set all these pieces in motion). And Marvel constantly puts out entertaining flicks, but they're never amazing. I had a blast watching Iron Man and the Avengers, but that was it, Nolan's trilogy, for instance, is on another level. I want Marvel to shake things up, and their movies do show that there's a shared formula behind them, one that, in my eyes, is getting old. That being said, The Avengers is still better than MoS and I appreciate what Marvel has accomplished!

Ricardo_PT on Jul 14, 2015

Cool enough teaser...but near the second half it started to feel like the Will Smith Margot Robbie show....could've just rolled the trailer for that busted broke film "Focus" from earlier this year that also starred the two ;(

PikeyOneil on Jul 13, 2015

This was better than expected. The best kind of surprise! The Joker will be good, Harley seems just right, and Viola Davis looks like she will kill it as Amanda Waller, although CCH Pounder would have been awesome too! // I really am ready to see this now~! Also, The Batman!!!~

DAVIDPD on Jul 13, 2015

Yeah, surprisingly I didn't know how much I cared if Waller was portrayed well until I saw she was!

BNN667 on Jul 14, 2015

Wooow....never thought i would say that...but...that looks good. Nice atmosphere. Very dark and hopeless. The only thing i don't like about the cast i Will Smith. Even if i like him in other movies...i think he does not fit in those kind of movies. His face is too well known. But the Movie looks good!

Dubmaster2010 on Jul 13, 2015

I dont like Harleys voice, it lacks the accent I am used to.

Brian Sleider on Jul 13, 2015

That did throw me at first, but, after a few minutes listing to her in the theater I'm betting we'll be glad it's been tamed down some.

BNN667 on Jul 14, 2015

This made me chuckle out loud, you may be on to something.

Brian Sleider on Jul 14, 2015

Thanks for not being Kindergarten level cheesy DC. Ive had enough of that from Marvel. Finally some dark serious comic movies for adults. Looks amazing....

Snowmanfloza on Jul 13, 2015

well said. that's exactly what I was thinking. supe v bman trailer was awesome and this one is too......and I'm not even a big fan of superhero films - but these DC movies are looking, as you said, "dark and serious" - and that's a good thing!

dan on Jul 13, 2015

Indeed!

Rock n Rollllll on Jul 13, 2015

Hahahahaha...what a ignorant opinion to bash on Marvel. They're two different properties going for two different tones. Which is a good thing. You don't want them being identical. And I don't recall the trailers for Marvel being cheesy, they just have more comedy, which is great because you get to experience laughter, thrills, and being blown away all in the same movie. Sorry that those movies speak for a wider audience, but it's the children of today that are going to become the massive fans we are, but of the movies (instead of the comics we grew up on). Or both. Plus...this could bomb and Marvel has a better track record. You can disagree but you're one person in a sea of people who look forward to Marvel movies.

JBroti on Jul 13, 2015

Calm your tits marvel boy. What he said is exactly right. Don't get your panties in a bunch just cause Snowmanfloza doesn't think like you.

Rock n Rollllll on Jul 13, 2015

My opinion again dude. You gonna seek out all my comments down to harass me, haha? Sorry I disagree with you both but I know what I like and I'll defend it at my best, if I can. You said earlier, I made my opinion about Heath's Joker to Leto's Joker based on one little trailer. Well now you're basing an entire Marvel franchise on one little suicide sauad trailer. Oh the irony.

JBroti on Jul 13, 2015

Dumb

Rock n Rollllll on Jul 13, 2015

No good comeback. As expected.

JBroti on Jul 13, 2015

I've been coming to this site for a long time and have seen you post a lot. Whenever it came to these two universes you've always favored Marvel and your arguments that have been against DC were always dumb and condescending. You have a childish personal vendetta against DC and will always come to these posts just to shit on them so yeah my reply to you "dumb" sums up everything you have to say.

Rock n Rollllll on Jul 13, 2015

I still like Marvel movies, but they are getting safer and less creative. They are taking away power from their directors to ensure that they stay safe and that is taking away creativity (must include jokes too). I enjoy reading darker comics in general and love more violent movies. DC is doing that so it is of great interest to my taste. If Marvel did the same for a movie, like Daredevil, I would also be interested. Right now it is looking like Marvel is for kids, and DC is for adults.

Snowmanfloza on Jul 14, 2015

Hollywood has replaced Inception boom trailer style with creepy child singing remix while everything is in slow motion.

Guest_of_Honor on Jul 13, 2015

Looks strange

Bounty 4 Zuckuss on Jul 13, 2015

I didn't expect to wet my pants. But yet...

Nash on Jul 13, 2015

I still like Heath Ledger's Joker better. But...these are two different incarnations and I'm judging before the movie is released, so my opinion could change...but for now...Heath Ledger. I was hoping Killer Croc would look more crocodilian and larger. Almost like The Lizard in Amazing Spiderman, only a crocodile. Margot Robbie looks good as Harley, but I still wish she turned down the role and was asked to play Miss/Capt Marvel. Think she would've been more impressive in that role. I still have mixed feelings about this movie. Only time will tell.

JBroti on Jul 13, 2015

Oh you can tell that much about Joker with this little trailer huh?!?! Interesting. Wow I thought Croc looked amazing. Also this isn't Marvels PG-13 CGI. DC universe doesn't work that way so stop complaining about nothing. All your comments just feel biased. Oh and dumb too.

Rock n Rollllll on Jul 13, 2015

Well they are my comments/opinions. Don't like it...suck it. I don't care. I already said my opinion could change when the movie comes out involving Joker. I said there's still hope. Killer Croc looks cool but I was hoping he'd be more animal than man in appearances. Maybe that's just cause I work with alligators and crocodiles. Also, you're talking about Sony not Marvel, genius. Your reply feels whiny because I disagree with you. Oh and dumb too.

JBroti on Jul 13, 2015

Don't worry marvel boy, everything will be okay. Marvel will keep making movies PG13 just for you so that you're able to sleep without a night light.

Rock n Rollllll on Jul 13, 2015

This movie is also PG13. So I don't know why you feel all high and mighty by saying that.

JBroti on Jul 13, 2015

Shhhhhhh it's past your bedtime. Don't forget to brush your teeth.

Rock n Rollllll on Jul 13, 2015

You must lead a sad, lonely, depressed, repressed, obsessed. . . uh, I lost my train of thought, but you get it, you suck.

BNN667 on Jul 14, 2015

this movie is not yet rated

Ryan on Jul 13, 2015

I don't see why anyone feels the need to be a jerk over the internet. "Marvel Boy" and juvenile terms like that are ridiculous. This isn't a competition, you can like Marvel, you can like DC, and/or you can like both or hate both. Acting like you're somehow superior or better just ruins the whole experience for everyone.

Wes Draven on Jul 13, 2015

Butthurt much?

txJM on Jul 14, 2015

Imagine his Joker or something very similar to it in this film... Ahh.

Ry on Jul 14, 2015

So, what, reactionaries are going to save the world? I guess, which is more plausible than good guys ... And that Margot Robbie, huh, she's so ...

shiboleth on Jul 13, 2015

Was interested in what they were doing with this movie. Now, not so much. Too early to tell though. The dialogue wasn't impressive. First trailers are always a little deceiving.

Randall13 on Jul 13, 2015

Damn, I'm pumped for this. Way moreso than Batman v. Superman, personally. I think I'm in the minority here, but I'm also actually really excited about Leto's sort of goth-rock/rap god joker here. Personally, I'm excited for pretty much any take on the Joker that is new and refreshing, like this one. At the end of the day, even if this joker sucks, i think this sort of treatment (which is pretty clearly a little more risky) is totally justified, because lets face it, 7 years ago we got the perfect joker. We have seen the pinnacle of that character's potential on screen for at least the next couple decades in Ledger's incarnation, and we don't need Jared Leto to try and match or one-up that performance. We already have the perfect Joker. I would much rather him try something new that may or may not work for people, but allows him to play with the character creatively, than try to do something in the vein of Nolan's Joker and inevitably come up short. that said, I think Leto will rock.

jay on Jul 13, 2015

Rap god joker. Hope that sticks..

Ry on Jul 14, 2015

You "Hope" something stinks? Kill yourself

BNN667 on Jul 14, 2015

Unless he/she edited their comment, it reads "sticks" and not "stinks"

Joker's hideout on Jul 14, 2015

Yeah I think this time lyrics "The joke is on me"

BNN667 on Jul 14, 2015

HAHA. Re-read my post.. then KILL YOURSELF.

Ry on Jul 14, 2015

In the last scene harley is on the table looks like he's torturing or rather turning her! Cool.

Wise guy on Jul 13, 2015

Must confess I'm a little underwhelmed by this. Like the idea, but can see it falling to pieces easily if its handled poorly

Dotpols on Jul 13, 2015

More excited for this than Bat v Supes

Jameson Cyr on Jul 13, 2015

Someone please fill me in here, as I haven't really had this on my radar. Is this part of the upcoming JL franchise, is Affleck Batman in this?

grimjob on Jul 13, 2015

Affleck has a cameo. His main part happens at the end with The Joker in Arkham Asylum. Joker breaks out and Batman has to fight him somehow. Harley Quinn gets involved in a way hence, the scene you see in the trailer with Batman on her car.

Jason Scarpelli on Jul 14, 2015

Ok, thak you.

grimjob on Jul 14, 2015

I'm more pumped to Batman v Superman, although this does look interesting. I'm curious to see how Batman and Joker's climatic Arkham Asylum sequence does. I'm guessing it leads into 'The Batman'...Affleck's solo film

Jason Scarpelli on Jul 14, 2015

Seems Meh.Ayer's movies all are lame and crap.specially Sabotage.

Н.И. + on Jul 14, 2015

thats your opinion, thats cool. but you're wrong and I hate you.

Jon Odishaw on Jul 14, 2015

Don't judge until you've seen the movie.

Jose Segura on Jul 14, 2015

i totally agree

jonnyb61 on Jul 16, 2015

Been trying to work out what has been bothering me about Leto's Joker, and whilst it's a minor thing, the fact that there's nothing been done with his mouth to augment the "smile" in the way Nicholson's and Ledger's joker's had some how makes him just look less "joker-like"

Dotpols on Jul 14, 2015

I have been so excited about this movie for so long. This was one of my favorite comic storylines ever. and yet... This footage really, reaaally scares me. This does not look as promising as it once did.

Nathan on Jul 14, 2015

Said no one. . .

BNN667 on Jul 14, 2015

I don't get easily excited over superhero movies, but this looks DOPE! Hope it's as stylish and moody as this trailer. A bit of cheese is always welcome too 🙂

DavideCoppola on Jul 14, 2015

a david ayer movie is always better than average ....

ari smulders on Jul 14, 2015

If they can keep Jai Courtney's role small this might be worth a watch Seriously though the BvS trailer looks interesting so by default as part of the same universe this might be cool.

Steven on Jul 14, 2015

Interesting.

avconsumer2 on Jul 14, 2015

That's no squad.....that's a time bomb!

TheOct8pus on Jul 14, 2015

Im in...

Trey on Jul 14, 2015

I really hope this gets an R rating; if it does, then it has a chance to be really good. Wish we would have saw more of Leto as the Joker but that brief glimpse at the end was pretty good.

Aaron on Jul 14, 2015

Isn't it amazing we're all getting to see a live action version of a comic series, that few people seem to have taken notice of, done with such an obvious amount of respect for the material by the filmmakers? Naw, never mind, I don't like the way that one character blinked in that one scene, this movies gonna be shit!!!

BNN667 on Jul 14, 2015

I was very sceptical obout this movie but now I am totally in! I really like this trailer. I am surprised how good the song maches the footage they show. I wonder how many people noticed that this is a 1968 Bee Gees song "I started a joke"?;) - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fkG4oIPT7tU

Szkari on Jul 14, 2015

Well, that was the most underwhelming trailer I've seen in a long time... It makes me appreciate Rocksteady games all the more for giving us some new, genuine Joker material.

txJM on Jul 14, 2015

Is this going to be about Superheroes or Supervillains?

Joker's hideout on Jul 14, 2015

Mostly amoral super protagonists

TheOct8pus on Jul 14, 2015

Loved Leto's joker laugh. This is looking promising. Thought it might lose some excitement because I saw it being shot all over town but it definitely delivered for me

David Diaz on Jul 14, 2015

people are annoying. how can anyone complain about seeing bits and pieces of something?

Adam on Jul 14, 2015

Don't know if this has been suggested before, but could it be possible that Suicide Squad and Batman V Superman are basically one and the same movie, just told from different perspectives? And You have to see both of them to understand either of them. This would be an interesting way of launching two franchises at the same time and thus creating a head start for DC.

Nash on Jul 14, 2015

I did and I want to know who sings the new haunting version and where can I purchase it?

Jose Segura on Jul 14, 2015

100

Can anyone tell me who sings the Bee Gee's cover in this trailer. Love the haunting tone of the singers voice.

Jose Segura on Jul 14, 2015

101

I looked it up and read in a few places it was made specifically for the film. Not sure if it's true, but that's what I've found so far.

Dalt Wisney on Jul 15, 2015

103

Dark, sinister, and broadening throughout the trailer. This appears to solidify DC's take on the superhero universe: a more serious take. Glad to see it. I'm going to enjoy this as much as I enjoy the Marvel universe, but for different reasons. How fun.

Quanah on Jul 14, 2015

104

I'm loving it.

Chris Groves on Jul 15, 2015

105

The joker part of the trailer was great. He's playing the psycho-type joker which looks cool. As for the rest of the trailer there wasn't too much that happened apart from Harley Quinn hanging upside down.

Trix256 on Jul 19, 2015

106

Really promising. I'm always pumped for dark and probably a little twisted adult movie entertainment and the tone here looks really good. I'm more than thrilled to watch the supremely talented Viola Davis in a role she could reprise and man Margot looks the perfect Harley in my eyes.
