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\u2014even join the super-secret, super-shady Task Force X. Today\u2019s do-or-die assignment? Assemble a collection of cons, including Bloodsport, Peacemaker, Captain Boomerang, Ratcatcher 2, Savant, King Shark, Blackguard, Javelin and everyone\u2019s favourite psycho, Harley Quinn. Then arm them heavily and drop them (literally) on the remote, enemy-infused island of Corto Maltese. Trekking through a jungle teeming with militant adversaries and guerrilla forces at every turn, the Squad is on a search-and-destroy mission with only Colonel Rick Flag on the ground to make them behave\u2026and Amanda Waller\u2019s government techies in their ears, tracking their every movement. And as always, one wrong move and they\u2019re dead (whether at the hands of their opponents, a teammate, or Waller herself). If anyone\u2019s laying down bets, the smart money is against them\u2014all of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.samdb.co.za\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/TheSuicideSquad-btw.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.samdb.co.za\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/TheSuicideSquad-btw.jpg?resize=600%2C400&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12527\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.samdb.co.za\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/TheSuicideSquad-btw.jpg?w=600&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.samdb.co.za\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/TheSuicideSquad-btw.jpg?resize=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>(L-r) SEAN GUNN, PETE DAVIDSON, MAYLING NG, JOEL KINNAMAN, JAI COURTNEY, NATHAN FILLION, writer\/director JAMES GUNN, MARGOT ROBBIE, FLULA BORG and MICHAEL ROOKER on the set of Warner Bros.
