Jared Leto’s Joker transformation has been closely watched, with the entire process has been documented through social media. While the pictures aren’t the best quality, we’re beginning to get a sense of what Leto will look like in the villainous role. We’ve of course seen two different interpretations of the Joker. Jack Nicolson and Heath Ledger played widely different version, both fit their respective films vision. It’s exciting to see an actor like Jared Leto take on one of the most known characters in the entire DC roster.
We got this picture a couple weeks ago, doing the pose from the cover of Alan Moore’s The Killing Joke.
The Killing Joke picture is followed by today’s image, which quality wise is pretty bad, but highlights another step in the evolution of Leto’s transformation.
The new picture is pretty creepy and specifically highlights what The Joker’s hair will look like in David Ayers‘ upcoming Suicide Squad. I’ve been a fan the calculated releases of these pictures, as its been entertaining to see Jared Leto go from his long-haired bearded look, to what he now looks like. I can’t wait to see the final product. It’s a great time for comic book fans worldwide.
The rest of the Suicide Squad lineup looks like this:
Will Smith as Deadshot
Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn
Jai Courtney as Captain Boomerang
Cara Delevingne as Enchantress
Joel Kinnaman as Rick Flag
Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje as Killer Croc
Viola Davis as Amanda Waller
Suicide Squad opens in theaters August 5, 2016.
