Peter Capaldi plays The Thinker in James Gunn’s The Suicide Squad and talks in the following spot.

Watch the new trailer here.

In the DC comics, The Thinker is Clifford DeVoe, a villain of The Flash and a disgraced District Attorney, who decides to become a bad guy and invents the “Thinking Cap,” a machine he wears that allows himself to become telekinetic and telepathic, controlling his victimsā€™ minds before he even bothers to outsmart them in the first place.

The spot features The Thinker as he joins the Squad.

The new poster for The Thinker also features Peter Capaldi with Starro’s starfish. See below.

The Suicide Squad gets released on Aug. 6.

The Suicide Squad synopsis:

From writer/director James Gunn comes Warner Bros. Picturesā€™ superhero action adventure ā€œThe Suicide Squad,ā€ featuring a collection of the most degenerate delinquents in the DC lineup.

Welcome to hellā€”a.k.a. 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 outā€”even join the super-secret, super-shady Task Force X. Todayā€™s do-or-die assignment? Assemble a collection of cons, including Bloodsport, Peacemaker, Captain Boomerang, Ratcatcher 2, Savant, King Shark, Blackguard, Javelin and everyoneā€™s favorite 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 behaveā€¦and Amanda Wallerā€™s government techies in their ears, tracking their every movement. And as always, one wrong move and theyā€™re dead (whether at the hands of their opponents, a teammate, or Waller herself). If anyoneā€™s laying down bets, the smart money is against themā€”all of them.
