"Grainy footage taken at the film's panel at Comic-Con International already leaked over the weekend, but now Warner Bros. has officially released the Suicide Squad teaser that everyone freaked out about during the studio's presentation in Hall H. Tracked to an ethereal cover of the Bee Gees "I Started a Joke," the clip has all the familiar faces: Enchantress (Cara Delevingne) doing some spelunking, El Diablo (Jay Hernandez) playing with fire, Deadshot (Will Smith) using a makeshift heavy bag, a restrained Killer Croc (Adele Akinnuoye-Agbaje), and Harley Quinn (Margot Robbie) dangling from the bars of her cell. Oh, and a final tag of Jared Leto's Joker preparing to torture somebody and flashing his shiny teeth. Watch it above so that you, too, may freak out over its existence.

The craziest part of the new trailer for Suicide Squad, leaked from San Diego Comic-Con and then released officially, is probably Margot Robbie's version of Harley Quinn, the Joker's sometime-girlfriend. In the trailer she's…nutty. And that was true when cartoon writer Paul Dini and artist Bruce Timm invented her for Batman: The Animated Series in 1992. Harley went on to appear on comic books, and then get a serious revise—from criminal-in-love-and-wacky to more psycho and wearing way less clothing, in a universe-wide rewrite of continuity. Robbie's version seems to hew more closely to the revised, less funny Harley—who maybe now is getting funnier again in comics. But not so much in movies? So what did her creator think of the new version? Well…here's what might be a hint, courtesy of Dini's twitter feed, retweeting another writer, Jimmy Palmiotti"
