James Gunn's 'The Suicide Squad' trailer looks like one fun party
Watch Next

2015's Suicide Squad can't come to the phone right now...but James Gunn's sassy, silly new version can take a message.

The trailer for Gunn's Suicide Squad boasts new "degenerate delinquents" including Bloodsport (Idris Elba), Peacemaker (John Cena), and King Shark (Steve Agee) alongside the returning Harley Quinn (Margot Robbie), Rick Flag (Joel Kinnaman), and Captain Boomerang (Jai Courtney). Gunn's trailer is every bit "What if the Guardians of the Galaxy guy did Suicide Squad," packed with jokes from every character and familiar faces from his other films.

Suicide Squad premieres August 6 in theaters and on HBO Max.
