I’ve got a feeling. That next year is going to be a good year. That next year is going to rock the superhero genre. So turn off the lights as I figure out some other way to segue that Black Eyed Peas song into an opening line. While the box office will soon have more spandex than the San Diego Comic Con, there’s one film that I’m eagerly anticipating: Suicide Squad. David “Fury” Ayers may be working on Warner Bros own Guardians Of The Galaxy in the form of Suicide Squad, a movie that stars a rag-tag group of super-criminals sent on a black ops mission with a high death-rate and even deadlier teammates.
And through it all, you can bet that Jared Leto’s Joker will be pulling plenty of strings from behind the scenes, as recent set photos show the new clown prince of crime off:

That’s gotta be a flashback to when Harley was Harleen, right? #SuicideSquad pic.twitter.com/Z5TJluHMuS

He just looks creepy, menacing and all kinds of badass. I can’t wait for this movie. #SuicideSquadpic.twitter.com/2r4r9A1oQU

Just Jared also has some more pics. Pics of the Joker in full swagger mode yo:
As horrifying as it is, an abusive Joker and Harley Quinn relationship is pretty much faithful to the comic books. I’m digging Leto’s look as the Joker, without all those tattoos. How about you? Suicide Squad is out August 5 2016, and stars Will Smith (Deadshot),Margot Robbie (Harley Quinn), Jai Courtney (Captain Boomerang), Cara Delevingne (Enchantress), Joel Kinnaman (Rick Flag),Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje (Killer Croc), Jay Hernandez (El Diablo), Karen Fukuhara (Katana), Adam Beach (Slipknot), Viola Davis (Amanda Walker), Ike Barinholtz, Scott Eastwood, Raymond Olubowale, Alex Meraz, Jim Parrack, and Common.

He looks awesome!

He looks terrible!
“Damaged” tattooed on his forehead, I mean how much more lame do you want?

Hipster Joker. He will have an iPad and control drones with his iWatch.
Captain JJ Browman
May 20, 2015 at 07:39
Haha!
Probably take photos of his food first as well.

Yip and instead of a cane he will rock a stylish selfie stick.

Probably full of “HAHAHA” stickers.

I seem to remember the internet screaming ‘oh my god, Ledger has SMEARED make up?! He’s Rubbish!’ You should appreciate that *RUNS
Captain JJ Browman
May 20, 2015 at 08:18
Haha. Touché.
I never minded the Heath Ledger Joker. He was so dark. Unlike that terrible Bane, oh sweet lawd that was bad. We’re still to see a pic of the new Joker smiling.So things might change. The tattoos are just so cheesy.

Tattoos are very cheesy agreed. I still think he has the potential to e great. @disqus_RTVUEcBB6N:disqus makes a very good point about Snyder’s want to make things all grey so with all that colour it may be for a reason.
Captain JJ Browman
May 20, 2015 at 08:21
I honestly think Jared Leto is the right person for it. I have no doubts about him doing a good job.
@disqus_RTVUEcBB6N:disqus does make a good point.
It’s just those tattoos then. They can’t be unseen.

Mmm, maybe they have a scene where Batman zaps him with some tazer thing, and the ink just vanishes? It’s POSSIBLE dammit!
Captain JJ Browman
May 20, 2015 at 08:25
I can live with that possibility. 😀

New Joker, inspired by the Cape Town hipsters.

All that colour will go to waste after Mr Snyder gives it that grey sheen he is so fond of.

May 20, 2015 at 08:12
good point

May 20, 2015 at 07:37
This is before CG makes him look awesome right?
Captain JJ Browman
May 20, 2015 at 07:39
So we’re relying 100% on Jared’s acting then.
