The most devious and diabolical comic book villains from the DC Universe are unleashed in the new trailer for Suicide Squad.

 

The fast-paced clip shows the motley crew in all their glory as they are assembled to carry out an undercover mission in an attempt to win their freedom.

To the tune of Queen’s Bohemian Rhapsody, the gang pummel their enemies, smash them against glass, and let loose with a machine gun.

We get more of a peek at Will Smith’s Deadshot, Jared Leto’s quick-tongued Joker and Margot Robbie’s maniacal-yet-jovial Harley Quinn.

Surrounded by a group of military personnel, she asks herself: “I should kill everyone and escape?” Before adding: “Sorry, the voices — I’m kidding! That’s not what they really said.”

Suicide Squad will open in the UK on August 5 2016.
