BUtterfield 8 41,110 Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 Warner Bros. is looking to expand on Jared Leto’s version of the Joker, which debuted in 2016’s “Suicide Squad,” with a movie of his own. Sources tell Variety that Leto is set to star and exec produce an untitled standalone film, paving the way for future movies branching from “Suicide Squad.” Plot details are currently unknown, but the studio’s idea is to expand on the world created by “Suicide Squad” and tie into future installments of that property. Warner Bros. already announced that Margot Robbie’s version of Harley Quinn would be getting her own movie with a “Birds of Prey” feature, and the next goal was setting up a film for Leto’s Joker. When Warner Bros. announced last fall that it was developing a Joker origin tale from Todd Phillips, the studio emphasized that this did not mean the end for Leto’s Joker. Rather, Phillips’ film would fall under a new origins banner that would be separate from the current cinematic DC universe. This new banner would allow multiple actors and versions based on the same character with no overlap, and WB has already tapped Joaquin Phoenix to star in Phillips’ Joker pic. Leto’s Joker, as fans noted, was almost a glorified cameo in “Suicide Squad.” The Oscar-winner had made it clear following the film’s release that he hoped to expand on the character in future films in a more substantive, if not starring, role. It’s currently unknown when this film would go into production, as Leto and the studio will now search for a writer. It’s also unclear if this film would shoot before or after the previously announced sequel to “Suicide Squad,” which is believed to go into production sometime in 2019. Leto was most recently seen in “Blade Runner: 2049” and Netflix’s “The Outsider.” He is repped by CAA and Untitled Entertainment. https://variety.com/2018/film/news/joker-jared-leto-standalone-movie-warner-bros-1202831025/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damon 10,896 Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 I'd kinda like to see more from him tbh, the movie was bad and paid dust to him by cutting scenes. I think it will be interesting to see the character developed ... and now i just sit in silence. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyGa 322 Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 Suicide Squad is the worst Super Hero movie ever. They turned the cool sexy Joker into a dumb mess. Hope it's not anything like it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reality 73,679 Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 Wait, I'm confused. Is this a separate movie from the Joker origins movie that they were talking about doing? Is this replacing it? Is Jared Leto's Joker now doing that origins movie? One paragraph clearly states "This new banner would allow multiple actors and versions based on the same character with no overlap," yet this whole article is about Jared Leto's joker getting a new movie... ᗰᗩYᕼEᗰ || 🦇👹🖤 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

River 107,967 Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 #NotMyJoker Jared is a nice actor, nothing against him. This Joker that they wrote is just not the Joker, it's more a fanboy of the Joker who tries to be him.. And let's not start with how they totally messed up with Harley.. His fart felt like a kiss Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAMROD 106,052 Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 WB misunderstanding that people complaining there's not enough Joker in that Suicide Squad movie = people wanting a Joker solo movie. Which is not the case. People complaining because the trailerS for Suicide Squad were really misled everyone that The Joker will be featured heavily along with Harley Quinn, but in reality he was barely in the movie. Which pissed everyone off. (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ✧*:･ﾟ 𝐹𝑒𝑒𝓁 𝓉𝒽𝑒 𝒷𝑒𝒶𝓉 𝓊𝓃𝒹𝑒𝓇 𝓎𝑜𝓊𝓇 𝒻𝑒𝑒𝓉, 𝓉𝒽𝑒 𝒻𝓁𝑜𝑜𝓇'𝓈 𝑜𝓃 𝐹𝐼𝑅𝐸!! (*´艸｀*) ♡♡♡ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
