In this day and age of massive success for comic book adaptations with the Marvel Cinematic Universe seemingly three steps ahead of DC Comics, the people who have adapted Batman and Superman in the past are now claiming some of their most iconic characters in new franchises, most famously the "Suicide Squad" Joker.
Over the past few weeks, the "Suicide Squad" Joker, played by Oscar-winning actor Jared Leto, has been making headlines often as his look is revealed piece by piece and, while there have been doubts in the past about the way he's portraying the iconic villain, things have started to look better for fans with the latest images.
In the past, Food World News has reported updates of the "Suicide Squad" Joker since the first time the film's director David Ayer teased the character with an image of Leto taking a picture in a manner honoring the classic comic book "The Killing Joke" by Alan Moore; there have also been reports of Will Smith's Deadshot, Margot Robbie's Harley Quinn and even the entire cast including supermodel Cara Delevingne.
Now, according to The Daily Mail, the first fully clothed "Suicide Squad" Joker images have come out, as paparazzi near the Toronto filming of the widely expected movie release a unofficial set pictures of the shoot, showing Leto in full character alongside Robbie, in a scene seemingly set before her character becomes Harley Quinn.
Billboard reports that there's also a new "Suicide Squad" Joker video of their scene together, as they're two favorite characters in the DC universe, so much so that director Kevin Smith named his own daughter after Harley Quinn.
In any case, the video shows Leto and Robbie seemingly fighting during the shoot, with Leto gesticulating heavily as The Joker; he certainly has big shoes to fill in the character, as its last live-action portrayal, by Heath Ledger in Christopher Nolan's "The Dark Knight," earned the actor a posthumous Oscar.
