New details and spoilers for "Suicide Squad 2" will feature a possible release date announcement, new villains, Captain Boomerang's return and Katana's backstory.

Several rumors are making rounds regarding the possible release date announcement for "Suicide Squad 2" as a post from 4Chan (via MorningNewsUSA) claimed that an announcement for the sequel will happen in September, although it did not specily whether it will be this month or Septemeber 2017.

Previous reports stated that part of "Suicide Squad 2 " will feature Tatsu Yamashiro/Katana's past as casts member Karen Fukuhara stated during the Rose City Comic Con event that she would like to see how Katana handles the relationship of her Soultaker sword, her diseased husband and explore further her life before she became the warrior that audiences see now in the film.

Fukuhara also gave praise to her fellow "Suicide Squad" movie co-stars, lauding Will Smith’s leadership and saying Margot Robbie “lived and breathed” Harley Quinn.

One flaw on the "Suicide Squad" movie was the lacked of character exploration as the film gave only glimpse and bits of each of the DC villains past prior to being incarcerated or recruited to Task Force X and hopefully the sequel could give fans more background on them.

Director David Ayer stated that they shot the last part of the "Suicide Squad" movie first and it gave him an idea for a possible story as he explained that anything could happen, the relationship between Harley and Joker will be explored event further once the sequel is on track.

Aside from Katana's backstory, Fukuhara's co-star Jai Courtney also teased reprising his role as Digger Harkness/Captain Boomerang and wants Ayer to helm the sequel once again. There are rumors that Captain Boomerang could make a cameo in "The Flash" live-action film starring Ezra Miller.

Meanwhile, five DC characters will likely appear in "Suicide Squad 2" as several fans picked the top five villains they want to see in the sequel.

These villains included Granny Goodness, Basilisk, Kobra, The Joker and Jihad, ComicBook reported. The first film featured all of DC comics most nororious criminals, super powered beings and anti-heroes and seeing a new batch of inmatesw will likely play a dynamic alongside notable faces like Deadshot (Will Smith), Harley Quinn (Margot Robbie) and many more.

There is no release date announcement yet for "Suicide Squad 2".
