Suicide Squad's Joker Could Be the Real Man of Steel: Jared Leto Bulks up for DC Movie

Posted on the 29 April 2015 by Imorfy
Move over Superman - Jared Leto's version of the Joker might just be the real Man of Steel.
Having sufficiently terrified millions last week with the first Suicide Squad photo of the maniacal and tattooed new Joker, Leto is now using his Instagram account to put the spotlight firmly on his body.

Gone is the gangly waif of Dallas Buyers Club, and in his place is a new-and-improved Leto complete with muscles that could make the Caped Crusader jealous.
The latest Instagram photo lends more credence to predictions that this new Joker will be markedly different than Heath Ledger's master manipulator or Jack Nicholson's laughing lunatic.
Director David Ayer's Suicide Squad brings together DC villains on a mission of redemption mandated by government operative Amanda Waller (Viola Davis).

Waller's squad includes team leader Rick Flagg (Joel Kinnaman), Harley Quinn (Margot Robbie), Boomerang (Jai Courtney) and Deadshot (Will Smith).
As their mission takes shape, the Suicide Squad will encounter fellow DC villains Slipknot (Adam Beach), Plastique (Karen Fukuhara), Killer Croc (Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje) and the Enchantress (Cara Delevingne).
Suicide Squad is currently filming in Canada for a summer 2016 release.
