The sad souls in costumes we call supervillains have been living their life as a punchline, looking for the opportunity to have a blessed act of rebellion to restore their dignity. Amanda Waller (Viola Davis) looks to utilize supervillains from Belle Reve prison, while also giving them a chance at redemption by forming a team she calls Task Force X, a.k.a. The Suicide Squad. This time around, she brings together a new team, one that still includes the psychotic clown herself, Harley Quinn (Margot Robbie). The squad must obey Waller's every order or have their heads blown off by an explosive planted at the base of their skull, as they risk their lives trying to save the world from destruction.
