Did Jared Leto just tease The Killing Joke (again) on Instagram and Twitter?

August 10, 2015

Jared Leto's Joker in Suicide Squad continues to be a mystery... but from the set photos and trailer, it appears that he'll have a bigger role in the movie than we initially thought.

Last night Jared Leto shared a video on Instagram and photo on Twitter of his shadow and while the hat stood out at me, I didn't really think anything of it. Until I saw Comicbook.com's write up of it this morning. Then it got me thinking...

The hat and outfit definitely resembles the Joker from The Killing Joke, but this isn't the first time Leto has teased something from that popular graphic novel. If you recall, we also got this photo of Leto back in April.

Could Suicide Squad include some flashback scenes of the Joker and Barbara Gordon, who is rumored to be played by Jena Malone in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice? Or is this all just one big coincidence? Leave your thoughts in the comments below.

Joker, Lex, Harley, Deadshot, Waller, Aquaman, Wonder Woman, Batman & Superman in one year.
I don't think people are realising how much of big deal this is.
I always got pics for you guys to have as your phone/laptop wallpapers. 😉 You're welcome! Long live the DCEU!

1. I want to see a mash up of Damian and Red Hood as a family opener.
2. Court of owls to threaten that family's existence.
3. Death of the family to show us the depth of the relationships he's built with all of his enemies vs his family

So , it looks like Red Hood and Court of Owls are fan favourites here
1. SlyTrooper
  August 10, 2015
  It's strange because I remember a time when everybody I spoke to hated Jason. Maybe I was just talking to the wrong people.
  Personally, Jason is my favourite character, so I'd love to see him in live action. And Court of Owls is my favourite comic story, so yeah.

      August 10, 2015
      One of Cage's best films is "Lord of War"...with Jared Leto. It's really worth
      watching.

  You also implied it was just an eye candy and people dislike versus movies. But to a lot of people here MoS was more than a visual masterpiece. So when they gave their opinion just like you gave yours, you freaked out and played victim as if everyone attacked you or anything.
  MoS was good. That comment hurt you that much that you thought us attacking you?

  MOS is actually my favourite film. I don't know why, but it's what I always wanted in a Superman film. I suppose it's just one of those love it or hate it situations.

  Huge Guy Ritchie fan right here.
  *Still waiting patiently for The Real Rock n Rolla*
  1. 12stepCornelius
    August 10, 2015
    I'm liking the previews. Cavill and Hammer seem to have good chemistry together and to me, it looks like a cross between Get Smart, James Bond, and Archer.
    1. Félicia Morgan
      August 10, 2015
      Cavill and Hammer are like Brother/Brother relationship even off set real life
  2. Nostradennus
    August 10, 2015
    Rock n Rolla is a great film tbh
    1. Dr Mindbender
      August 10, 2015
      Absolutely.
      Phenomenal cast and a great story.
  3. Batfan nana nana nana
    August 10, 2015
    His Sherlock Holmes movies are the beat
    1. Dr Mindbender
      August 10, 2015
      I enjoy them as well, but my favorite Guy Ritchie flicks are
      -snatch
      -rock n rolla
      -lock stock and two smoking barrels
      1. Batfan nana nana nana
        August 10, 2015
        Snatch is definitely top of that list... Brick top is one of my all time favorite bosses
2. Red Queen

  It will only come out in my country in September. Damn it!

5. Chris Terrio
  August 10, 2015
  I definitely will. I'm a fan of the cast and it soitenly seems a interesting movie. As you said below, it's a good mix of James Bond and Archer
6. Félicia Morgan
  August 10, 2015
  So much hottness is this gif thanks and yes i will watch this movie at least 2 times
7. Chris Terrio

  I think he could play GL or GA
  1. Wonder Mia
    August 10, 2015
    For sure! But if BB is correct, GL is gonna be a young british actor. My money goes to Matthew Lewis.
    1. Félicia Morgan
      August 10, 2015
      Lewis has already worked with WB with Harry Potter
      1. Wonder Mia
        August 10, 2015
        That´s right, also he has the looks and I could see him having really good chemestry with Ezra´s Barry.
    2. Chris Terrio
      August 10, 2015
      He's the right age. I only witnessed his acting in Harry Potter

Very OT but are there any Brits on here or someone familiar with British city nomenclature? I was watching Premier League this weekend. Liverpool played Stoke City and I always like researching these cities in England. Apparently Stoke, the city, is known as Stoke upon Trent. Can someone explain this naming of English cities? What does the "upon" or "on" mean? I've tried googling and just can't get the wording down in the search tab. Thanks all! It's been a while since I posted but know we have people on here from around the world. Sorry to be so off topic but this is driving me crazy!

  Zod is such a great villain. But to be honest, part of that's because Michael Shannon scares me in real life. He's always got that droning voice and serious stare, I feel like he could secretly be a serial killer hahaha
