Suicide Squad - Cast Photo (In Costume)

Looks good to me. Harley and Deadshot look great - wish Will Smith would wear the red eye gadget though.


I agree with the track jacket on Boomerang looking stupid, but that's more of a real-life "why would anyone wear that" reaction than anything else.

Harley rockin those Adidas.

The cast looks okay but I'm not hyped for the film.

Harley's costume is terrible. Looks like she is working a street corner. Croc looks bad too, not at all what I expected but I guess they are going a bit low key with him.

The rest look fine if forgettable

Do a Google image search for "Harley Quinn", 80% of her designs make her look like that.
 
This is the best costumes cast I've seen in any movie since XMen. OMG and they don't look cheap either thank god. DC is doing everything right

Harley looks iconic
 
i think that can be inferred by all the pictures released by ayer so far. rag-tag group of assholes (some with powers) who have to carry out a mission. like the dirty dozen meets the sex pistols.
Can we expect humour or will it be quite dark? I can see something like this fitting great with humour but I'm aware of the amount of claims out there that DC want to be darker and edgier than that.

They will probe go with a hard-core action film with some dark humour. With a name like Suicide squad it's bit going to be any less than a 15 and you can't have Harley and Joker with some dark comedy

will smith, harley quinn and joker are like a guarantee there will be some humor in here. i think people who take that 'no jokes' dc thing seriously are naive. man of steel had jokes too it's just they were shite.
 
Give Will Smith the eye thingy Deadshot wears or just rename the character to Will Smith so in a later movie somebody can do an authentic Deadshot.

Suicide Squad has traditionally had a lot of gallows humor, from the infighting to the general hopelessness of the assignments they receive. I wouldn't worry too much about humor being nonexistent.

to me this looks sort of like slightly above average (if that) cosplay, and for a movie, sort of ridiculous.

somehow, the avengers, which consist of people in capes with magic hammers and giant green monsters, look far less ridiculous than this lot.

sorry to be negative, but wow, that's my impression. maybe I'm alone.
 
SS is almost always darkly comedic.
There should be humor here. Dark humor but humor all the same.
Suicide Squad traffics in both.

Nolan's Batman trilogy had its fair share of humor.
"Good luck"
I doubt this is going to be The Crow
Wow guys, thanks for the wealth of replies. This sounds really good to me.

I still can't believe how crazy 2016 is going to be for comic books fans. Civil War, Batman VS Superman, Apocalypse, Deadpool, Dr. Strange, Suicide Squad and Gambit is also scheduled to release. So excited.

I'm sure it will look fine in the context of the movie and I think the designs are decent, but this particular picture looks cosplaytastic.

Yup. Harley looks pretty bad. The whole set's either generic as hell or just plain bad.

Do a Google image search for "Harley Quinn", 80% of her designs make her look like that.

And that 80% are bad too! Stjepan Sejic does the best design for Harley, however I'm pretty sure it wouldn't work on film:


And frankly that's a real shame.

But for the love of god, DC, please stop with this weird thong/hot pants versionof Harley with a tramp stamp...I mean in this version all you've really got that says Harley is blonde pigtails and white makeup...

Well, they are supposed to be ridiculous to a certain extent. They are a mish-mash, bunch of misfits slapped together by the government.

The look like a rag tag bunch of street level villains. Exactly what they're supposed to be.

Except that Enchantress in theory could potentially have the power to kill Superman.

I really want to know how they're going to play her.
 
Lol this looks really bad, but the X-Men films show just because your promo pics are shit, it doesn't mean your movie will be so I'm still optimistic.

Croc looks bad tho.

So does Deadshot.

I don't really know what I was expecting with Harley, but I much prefer her animated roots than the sexualized one we always get now.
 
SO BAD.

Slipknot's generic. Plus cornrows.

Boomerang looks like Chav salad with a side of punchable face.

Enchantress stepped right outta the Pirates sequels after bringing Jack back.

Flagg is more generic than the actor playing him.

Harley is a cosplayer that threw together her outfit the day she found out there was a con in town from random stuff in her closet.

Looks like they put Big Willy in a $15 matching pair of Walmart compression leggings/shirt and then strapped pieces of PVC and spray painted hockey pads over it. JESUS.

Killer Croc is wearing a painted-on Halloween mask with lumpy prosthetic gloves and nothing showing anywhere else by covering him up in some street trash clothes so they can save on the makeup job, but he still looks way too small for the size of his head. If one of the amateur FACE OFF contestants marched this out on the stage, Glenn Hetrick would verbally buttfuck them out of the competition.

Katana's a bald ass dudebro with a stencil cover up job.

Fuck this shit. This is so unbelievably lazy and uninspired.
