PETER Capaldi looks like he is storing the sonic screwdrivers he used as Doctor Who in his head.

The Scot, 62, plays DC Comics character The Thinker in The Suicide Squad.

He appears covered in bolts resembling the Time Lord’s favourite bit of kit in the trailer for the supervillain movie.

Pinhead Peter is seen tangling with Margot Robbie’s Harley Quinn and House of Cards actor Joel Kinnaman’s Rick Flag in the DC blockbuster.

The sequel also stars Idris Elba, Sylvester Stallone, wrestler John Cena and Ariana Grande’s ex Pete Davidson.

It is set for release on August 6, five years after the critically-panned original that featured Cara Delevingne and Will Smith.
