The Suicide Squad Releases New Original Song From Final Trailer

Earlier today, the final trailer for James Gunn‘s The Suicide Squad dropped, and besides blowing people’s minds, it also got a stong stuck in their head. Now that song — “Rain,” by grandson and Jessie Reyez — is available for sale. We’re going to go out on a limb and guess that this might be the “pop classic” that Gunn recently teased would be recorded for the film’s soundtrack, but it’s Gunn, so don’t be too surprised if he had another banger or two waiting to be unleashed on the world. After all, it isn’t as though the soundtracks for either volume of his Guardians of the Galaxy franchise was lacking in that department.

“So one of my favorite current musical artists wrote & recorded a song for #TheSuicideSquad & I feel like I’m standing so close to a pop classic that it’s burning my brain. I have been singing it non-stop for a week. Can’t wait to share… soon,” Gunn wrote back in May. “In all honesty it actually features TWO of my favorite new artists who I’ve professed love for in the past.”

You can download or stream “Rain” at this link. The track can be purchased at iTunes, Amazon, and other digital music retailers if that’s your bag, too.

In The Suicide Squad, welcome to hell — a.k.a. Belle Reve, the prison with the highest mortality rate in the US of A. Where the worst Super-Villains are kept and where they will do anything to get out — even join the super-secret, super-shady Task Force X. Today’s do-or-die assignment? Assemble a collection of cons, including Bloodsport, Peacemaker, Captain Boomerang, Ratcatcher 2, Savant, King Shark, Blackguard, Javelin, and everyone’s favorite psycho, Harley Quinn. Then arm them heavily and drop them (literally) on the remote, enemy-infused island of Corto Maltese.

The Suicide Squad will see the return of Viola Davis as Amanda Waller, Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn, Joel Kinnaman as Colonel Rick Flag, and Jai Courtney as Captain Boomerang from 2016’s Suicide Squad. Joining them in the film are David Dastmalchian as Polka-Dot Man, Steve Agee as King Shark, Daniela Melchior as Ratcatcher 2, Idris Elba as Bloodsport, John Cena as Peacemaker, Nathan Fillion as T.D.K., Pete Davidson as Blackguard, Flula Borg as Javelin, Mayling Ng as Mongal, Peter Capaldi as The Thinker, Michael Rooker as Savant, Alice Braga as Sol Soria, and Sean Gunn as Weasel.

The Suicide Squad is set to be released both in theaters and on HBO Max on August 6th.
