on Awesome new look at The Joker, Harley Quinn, and more in 'Suicide Squad'

Last week we got an awesome look at the Joker and the Suicide Squad on separate covers of an upcoming issue of French magazine Cinema Teaser, and tonight a Jared Leto fansite on Tumblr shared awesome new photos from inside.

We get a new look at Jared Leto's Joker, Margot Robbie's Harley Quinn in action, and more. Check them out in the gallery below.

Update: Unfortunately Cinema Teaser isn't pleased about these images being online, so I've removed them from Batman News at their request.

    I've tried so hard but I just don't care much for the Joker's look. I will reserve judgement until we see the performance and characterization.

    Interesting, Jared Leto has his 30 seconds to mars tattoo on his forearms in that photo.. Maybe that played a role in his Joker having tattoos... Is this the first time that's visible? I don't remember seeing his actual tattoos, just the Joker themed ones for the film..

    The giant smile tattoo on his right forearm is missing, and we can see Jared Leto's actual tattoos.

      I think this may just be a continuity error. They probably didn't put the tattoos on because he was wearing a long sleeved shirt.

    Margot's feet are a prime example of what happens when women spend too much of their time in fancy heels. I once knew a state-level pageant winner and her feet were similar.

    Flats FTW ladies! No matter how much help the heels give your butt!

      But it's so hard to pull the flats off! I live in Cali, and pretty much all women wear flats here. And I'll tell you -- almost all of them look bad for it.

      Look inspired by Mexican cartel, psychopathic subjects he interviewed, the art and style of Alejandro Jodorowsky (dude who made the Holy Mountain), and characterizations inspired from conversations with comic creators like Grant Morrison. A beautiful disaster. Going for a mystical narcissistic mobster in a time where the face of thuggery has become more...flashy.

            It's about the same. I liked it. Didn't love it. Definitely didn't hate it or dislike it. I think the Ultimate Edition is going to be my favorite version. It looks awesome!

      Man of Steel's reception may not be something to brag about, but I wouldn't call it a critical flop.

      Batman v Superman... yup.

        It was mixed by critics. A 55% on rottentomstoes and metacritic is definitely not good. For what they were going for, it surely was a flop.

          "A 55% on rottentomstoes and metacritic is definitely not good."

          I know it's not good. That's why I said it's nothing worth bragging about.

          "For what they were going for, it surely was a flop."

          Everyone goes for a well received movie. This isn't some unique scenario where anything less is automatically a flop. Mixed is mixed. More positive than negative reviews is not a critical flop.

          No offense, but it's a little ridiculous how many people are quick to deem something a "flop."

          1. OGmacrazy Avatar
            OGmacrazy

            When your movie is produced and it's story is written by Christopher Nolan, a 55 is definitely a flop. They wanted a new The Dark Knight with that movie, without a doubt. I love Man of Steel, and I must have watched it 5 or 6 times by now. But yeah, it kinda flopped with the critics.

            Nolan did co-write the story. However, he didn't write the screenplay which was written by Goyer alone.

            Wrong. Chris Terrio helped out w/ the script. Nolan was just a producer if I remember correctly.

          It's a divisive film, 56% of the critics at RT liked it, the rest just didn't like the movie because this Superman is not Christopher Reeves' Superman, too much destruction, religious themes or just problems with the script. The movie even got a 3/4 at Roger Ebert's site, whereas BvS got 2.5/4 by the same reviewer.

    After much reflection, I think I realized something -- they are deliberately making him into a pimp...This can't be coincidental. This is not a mistake or misunderstanding of the character -- this is a conscious choice.

    Sooo yea something is definitely fishy about that pic,perhaps its just promo? Jareds regular tats are never visible in any other pic. There is a huge laughing smile tat in all the other images on his right arm.

    Also, on the jared leto fan tumblr you can see a figure from the Joker... Look at it's back tattoo: familiar? It's almost exactly the same as grant morrison's Joker's back tattoo

      The dragon tattoo take is Frank and Jim´s Joker from AS B&R. The Morrison one had multiple designs and could be the biggest influence of Leto, as he consulted Morrison.

    Imagine if the origin story would be that 30 seconds went to sh#t and Jared Leto became insane, thus he began dressing himself as a clown. That's why he has the J on his cheeck of course! #jaredisjoker lol

    Again with the hate on Leto's look, such a weak argument. Had they gone with a more "traditional" look they would of been accused and shit on for not being original, or just replicating Jack's or Heath's look. Ayer and Leto decided to do their own thing and I commend them for it. It's such a massive character to pull off, never was Leto going to win over everyone.

      That is nonsense. had they gone with the traditional look, everything would have been fine because thats what the character looks like in the source material. Plus you can modernize it and still stay true to it. Look at Joker in recent comics or Arkham Origins. And there was certainly nobody complaining about them not being original or just replicating shit.

      a majority of people is not fond of the fact that Ayer and Leto strayed so far from the source material for this. Accept it.

      Heath Ledger didn't have the traditional Joker look. He was more grunge, had actual face make-up (his skin wasn't actually white) and he wasn't as lean.

      Still, we all know Heath was brilliant and original.

      I'm warming up to this Joker look, but I just don't like the tattoos, because it seems absurd to me to imagine Joker sitting for hours in a tattoo parlour xD And it humanises him too much for my liking.

      But hey he's had tattoos in some comics before, so all I really care about is the characterisation, performance and interaction with Harley and Batman. And of course whether this Joker is going to be more brutal than previous versions.

    I want to see Leto's look in motion, as an extension of his character and in the context of the story. Will it be a sore thumb? I think just the opposite. Attention-grabbing yes, but a good fit.

    Jokers look is kinda growing on me. Don´t even mind the grills and never cared about the tats. The one thing I just can´t accept about his look is all those jewellery on him, those golden chains and whatnot. It just doesn´t belong to the character at all. It makes him look like some pimp or hip hop gangster. It also goes against what the character believes in. He doesn´t care about wealth and shit like that. In a way it´s the complete opposite of the comic Joker and even the Nolan Joker. I certainly don´t recall any Joker in the comics who walked around looking like a jewellery store.

    1. Alex Getts Avatar

      It all comes down to how he uses them. If he's using his rings and chains to wreak havoc and maim some people, it's 100% in line with the character.

    2. grayghost84 Avatar
      grayghost84

      Also, if he is a "modern gangster" the jewels and riches are a sign of his power and status.

    3. Matches Malone Avatar

      It sticks out to me as well. I've been a fan of the look, but the jewelry seems out of place. I guess it makes since if you look at it as an extension of why he wears the suit in the first place; it's an ironic play on anti-conformity, and a big "middle finger" to society's rules and values. We'll just have to wait and see. As long as he's not some money-grubbing gangster, I think it'll be fine.

      And BvS was also called "better than TDK". I'm cautiously positive about SS, I know I will love it, but I don't want to get too hyped, this way I'll enjoy the movie even more. I think that was one of my problems with BvS, I let the hype get to me (but those trailers were so epic, especially Trailer #1).
