VIDEO: John Cena, Margot Robbie, and Idris Elba Team Up to Take Over an Island in Explosive New ‘Suicide Squad’ Trailer
Sylvester Stallone and Pete Davidson also appear in the star-studded comic book sequel
April 7, 2021DC Comics’ weirdest, craziest, and most violent scoundrels team up to infiltrate a remote jungle island in the explosive new trailer for “The Suicide Squad,” arriving June 6.
Margot Robbie reprises the role of demented ex-psychiatrist Harley Quinn in the star-studded comic book sequel, a follow-up to 2016’s “Suicide Squad.” In this new installment, she joins forces with a diverse group of incarcerated miscreants looking to shave a decade off their sentences.
Jai Courtney, Joel Kinnaman, and Viola Davis also return to co-star in the James Gunn-directed film, along with franchise newcomers Idris Elba, Peter Capaldi, Alice Braga, Storm Reid, Nathan Fillion, Sean Gunn, Daniela Melchior, David Dastmalchian, Michael Rooker, and Stern Show veterans John Cena, Pete Davidson, and Sylvester Stallone.
“Nothing like a bloodbath to start the day,” Cena’s character Peacemaker says in the trailer (above) over darkly comedic action sequences involving deadly boomerangs, detachable limbs, and a walking, talking shark (voiced by Stallone).
“They call you Peacemaker?” another villain asks him, incredulously.
“I cherish peace with all my heart,” Cena responds. “I don’t care how many men, women, and children I need to kill to get it.” Watch a clip from the wrestler-turned-action star’s 2006 interview with Howard (below).
“The Suicide Squad” arrives in theaters, IMAX, and on HBO Max on August 6.
