Over the past few days, Suicide Squad has taken over the streets of downtown Toronto, offering onlookers a sneak preview of the 2016 blockbuster. The sights have included a helicopter crashing into a bus, Batman jumping onto the Joker’s shiny car, the new look Batmobile, and Harley Quinn generally being badass.
The film, which features Will Smith, Jared Leto, and Margot Robbie, is the biggest one filming in Toronto this year. In turn, the very public shoot and high profile actors and characters have brought out lots of photographers, videographers, and Vine-ers.
We gathered some highlights so you don’t have to wait an hour on a downtown sidewalk for those 45 seconds of Hollywood glory.
