With a month to go until its worldwide release, Warner Bros. has announced that advanced tickets to Suicide Squad will go on sale in five days.

We're now at the halfway point of the summer movie season, and so far, the box office has seen its fair share of big-budget duds. There is still hope for a turn around with three potential blockbusters coming out later this month: Ghostbusters, Star Trek Beyond and Jason Bourne. However, if they underwhelm, too, all eyes will turn to Suicide Squad.

Can the last big tentpole of season save the summer? Sure. It's already the most talked about film on social media, according to ComScore's PreAct. And nobody doubts that Suicide Squad will do well at the box office, but after Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice lost a lot of its momentum due to poor reviews, it would seem wise not to buy into the hype until the critics have spoken.

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 David Ayer based on the characters from DC Comics, the film stars Will Smith ("Ali"), Jared Leto ("Dallas Buyers Club"), Margot Robbie ("The Wolf of Wall Street"), Joel Kinnaman ("RoboCop") and Viola Davis ("The Help"). The cast also includes 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.
