You'll Need A Hug After Watching These Intense Suicide Squad TV Spots

Warner Bros. has released a new pair of television spots for David Ayer's upcoming comic book movie Suicide Squad.

In the first one, Colonel Rick Flag (Joel Kinnaman) tells Deadshot (Will Smith) what a great job he did during a mission and gives the "Best Marksman in the World" a hug. However, Deadshot doesn't reciprocate because he is "not a hugger." In the second television spot, The Joker (Jared Leto) exaggeratedly says , "It's so intense." I agree. It is intense.

It feels good to be bad… Assemble a team of the world's most dangerous, incarcerated Super Villains, provide them with the most powerful arsenal at the government's disposal, and send them off on a mission to defeat an enigmatic, insuperable entity. U.S. intelligence officer Amanda Waller has determined only a secretly convened group of disparate, despicable individuals with next to nothing to lose will do. However, once they realize they weren't picked to succeed but chosen for their patent culpability when they inevitably fail, will the Suicide Squad resolve to die trying, or decide it's every man for himself?

Written and directed by Ayer based on the characters from DC Comics, the film also stars Jai Courtney ("Insurgent"), Jay Hernandez ("Takers"), Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje ("Thor: The Dark World"), Ike Barinholtz ("Neighbors"), Scott Eastwood ("Fury"), Cara Delevingne ("Paper Towns"), Adam Beach ("Cowboys & Aliens"), and Karen Fukuhara in her feature film debut. It is produced by Charles Roven and Richard Suckle, with Zack Snyder, Deborah Snyder, Colin Wilson and Geoff Johns serving as executive producers.

Suicide Squad opens worldwide in 3D, and in 2D, and in select IMAX 3D theaters beginning August 5, 2016.
