'Suicide Squad 2' Trailer 'Leaks' & Reveals So Many New Things!

There’s a new Suicide Squad 2 trailer!

The highly anticipated film, which stars a ton of celebs including Joel Kinnaman, Idris Elba and John Cena, is being teased in a “leak” by the cast on Tuesday (June 22).

Margot Robbie also returns as Harley Quinn, Viola Davis is Amanda Waller, and Jai Courtney is Captain Boomerang.

Idris is a new addition as Bloodsport, while John joins as Peacemaker. Sylvester Stallone is the voice of King Shark.

The new trailer shows how Amanda Waller (Davis) convinces Bloodsport (Elba) to join her team, who is in prison for shooting Superman with a Kryptonite bullet. She also explains their mission is to “destroy every trace” of something called Project Starfish.

Here’s a plot summary: “Welcome to hell—a.k.a. Belle Reve, the prison with the highest mortality rate in the US of A. Where the worst Super-Villains are kept and where they will do anything to get out—even join the super-secret, super-shady Task Force X. Today’s do-or-die assignment? Assemble a collection of cons, including Bloodsport, Peacemaker, Captain Boomerang, Ratcatcher 2, Savant, King Shark, Blackguard, Javelin and everyone’s favorite psycho, Harley Quinn. Then arm them heavily and drop them (literally) on the remote, enemy-infused island of Corto Maltese. Trekking through a jungle teeming with militant adversaries and guerrilla forces at every turn, the Squad is on a search-and-destroy mission with only Colonel Rick Flag on the ground to make them behave…and Amanda Waller’s government techies in their ears, tracking their every movement. And as always, one wrong move and they’re dead (whether at the hands of their opponents, a teammate, or Waller herself). If anyone’s laying down bets, the smart money is against them—all of them.”

Nathan Fillion just addressed rumors about his role in the movie.
