James Gunn Teases New Suicide Squad 2 Trailer Might Release Soon
James Gunn teases that a new trailer for The Suicide Squad will be released very soon. Ever since it was announced that Gunn was directed a Suicide Squad movie following his momentary firing from Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, it has been one of the DC Extended Universe's most anticipated titles. The filmmaker's stamp on the franchise became abundantly clear when Warner Bros. and DC Films released the first Suicide Squad 2 trailer.
All of the marketing for The Suicide Squad has made it obvious how different it is from the original 2016 film, to which this is neither a sequel nor a reboot, according to Gunn. Suicide Squad 2's R-rated nature has allowed more violence and cruder humor to be included in red band trailers. Meanwhile, Gunn has brought a brighter look to the film and embraced the idea of Task Force X containing a lineup of bottom-tier DC characters. Fans have already seen a few looks at The Suicide Squad before its August release in theaters and on HBO Max, but it sounds like another is coming very soon.
It's been a few months since the first official trailer for The Suicide Squad debuted online, so fans are starting to wonder when the final trailer will arrive. This led to one fan on Twitter asking Gunn if the final Suicide Squad 2 trailer will be released next month. Gunn gave a sly response that indicates waiting until July is too long. If that is true, it sounds like the new trailer will arrive sometime before June comes to an end.
With less than two months until The Suicide Squad's release date, now would be a good time to release a new look at the movie. Even though the movie will also be available for free to HBO Max subscribers in August, WB and DC should still be treating this as their premiere summer movie release. We might already be in the middle of June, but the real start of the 2021 summer movie season is about to begin. Universal has F9 hitting theaters this coming week and Disney and Marvel's long-awaited Black Widow releases in early July. A new trailer for The Suicide Squad could be shown in front of both blockbusters, as long as it is released in time.
Whenever the new trailer for The Suicide Squad arrives, it will be fascinating to see what is shown. The original trailer only teased the presence of Starro, the giant alien starfish who is the movie's main villain. A full look at Starro and how the Suicide Squad will try to defeat the monster could be great to see. The Suicide Squad 2 trailer will also surely feature plenty of jokes and action, but more information on the story would be welcomed by most. Now fans will just have to hope that the new The Suicide Squad trailer comes sooner than later.
