Set in Midway City following the events of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, the movie centers around intelligence officer Amanda Waller’s (Viola Davis) attempt to use the city’s most evil criminals — including Harley Quinn (Margot Robbie), Enchantress (Cara Delevingne) and Deadshot (Will Smith) — as a force of good in the fight to save Earth from a “mystical” force.
