"Suicide Squad" director David Ayer released an image of the cast of the movie in full costume, including one of Will Smith as Deadshot.

Director David Ayer tweeted a photo of the full cast of Warner Bros. Pictures' "Suicide Squad" in full costume, following a solo image of Will Smith in complete Deadshot gear, including his mask and weapon.

Ayer, following the lead of "Avengers: Age of Ultron" director Joss Whedon and "X-Men: Apocalypse" helmer Bryan Singer, has been whetting fans' appetites for the DC Comics characters in the upcoming anti-hero film that's scheduled to hit theaters Aug. 5 next year.

In April, he initially posted photos of Jared Leto in his gradual transformation into the Joker, culminating in a bare-chested image of the Oscar winner with the Joker's signature acid green hair and red- lipped maw, this version complete with a purple glove, multiple tattoos, and what appears to be teeth equipped with a set of metal braces.

"Wolf of Wall Street" actress Margot Robbie, who plays Joker's girlfriend, Harley Quinn, in the movie has been depicted sans her DC Comics jester costume, wearing instead a brief ensemble of a red and blue leather jacket, a torn white t-shirt, sparkly red and blue shorts with a studded belt, fishnet tights, and lace-up stiletto boots, all topped with red and blue pigtails and tattoos.

According to Cinema Blend, Harley Quinn's costume for the DC Cinematic Universe will borrow heavily from the character's appearances in the "Batman: Arkham" and "New 52" video games.

"Suicide Squad" will feature other DC Comics super villains, Slipknot (Adam Beach), Captain Boomerang (Jai Courtney), Enchantress (Cara Delevigne), Katana (Karen Fukuhara), Rick Flagg (Joel Kinnaman), Killer Croc (Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje, and El Diablo (Jay Hernandez).

"The Longest Ride's" Scott Eastwood will also be introduced as Steve Trevor, Wonder Woman's love interest.
