When the firstofficialtrailer forSuicide Squadhit, the Warner Bros. marketing team made excellent use out ofQueen’s “Bohemian Rhapsody”, and indeed it looks like music will be a big part of this next DC Extended Universe film. The fullSuicide Squadsoundtrack listing has officially been unveiled, giving us a peek at the aural landscape that may or may not populate the film. It’s a somewhat diverse lineup, fromCreedence Clearwater Revival’s “Fortunate Sun” toEminem’s “Without Me” to a cover of “Bohemian Rhapsody” byPanic! At the Disco. But there are also a couple of original tracks as well, includingSkrillexandRick Ross’ “Purple Lamborghini”, with the music video for apparently starringJared Leto’s Joker himself.
This is certainly a different kind of approach thanBatman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, but it’s nice to see that writer/directorDavid Ayer’sSuicide Squadis very much being treated as a very different kind of film. And while a soundtrack is all well and good, I’m also itching to get a peek at Oscar-winningGravityandThe World’s EndcomposerSteven Price’s full original score for the film.
Take a look at the fullSuicide Squadsoundtrack listing below, followed by links to some of our most recent coverage for the film. Atlantic Records will release theSuicide Squadsoundtrack on August 5th, the same day as the film.Click hereto pre-order on iTunes.
