In a recent tweet

A stylized, graphic look is used throughout the poster, emphasizing the characteristics of each character through their individualized fonts and character icons. Most characters simply have their faces or helmets represented, such as Harley Quinn, Weasel, Bloodsport and Mongal.
Others have a bit more to reflect their character traits. Sol Soria is the only character to have more of her upper body shown, firing a machine gun behind some jungle to indicate her militaristic background. Peacemaker also has a dismembered hand making a peace sign. Amanda Waller has one of the more unique fonts, taking inspiration from different members of the Suicide Squad for each letter to reflect her leadership status.
The Thinker has the nodes on his heads connected, possibly indicating how his power manifests. His face is notably paler than how Peter Capaldi appears in promotional footage. Either this is a stylistic choice for the poster, or The Thinker will experience a physical transformation while using his powers.

TDK is sporting a pose akin to that of Wonder Woman, but notably has flesh exposed from the elbow down. This points to the fact that Nathan Fillion is indeed playing a version of the ridiculously obscure character Arm Fall Off Boy, only under a different name.
Ultimately, this is a fantastic-looking poster and should get fans excited for when
The Suicide Squad
releases in theaters on August 6, 2021.
