DC's newest film may be all about the squad - Suicide Squad - but it's hard not to feel like there's one lady about to walk away with the show.

That'll be Margot Robbie's Harley Quinn, an iconic character in comics history finally brought to screen by one of the most dynamic and exciting Hollywood stars around; and there's no doubt all eyes will be on the mischievous Harleen Quinzel when the film finally opens.

No surprise, then, that's she been fairly central to Warner Bros.' advertising campaign for the film; now landing herself her very own dedicated trailer, exploring the gal everyone's been calling the team's "wild card".

That includes some fantastic new footage of Harley in all her baseball bat-wielding glory, taking down a goon in an elevator while checking her phone for texts from Puddin' AKA the Joker.

Hopes in Harley's ensuing popularity seem pretty sky-high at the moment, considering Warner Bros. is already looking at the possibility of launching the character as the front for an all-female DC team, roping in the likes of Batgirl for good measure.

The only worry now is whether the final film will actually be committing to the totally anarchic, gleefully dark tone of the trailers; a prospect that's become a little more promising with news the film's landed a 15 rating in the UK.

Suicide Squad hits UK cinemas 5 August.
