There’s been a lot of talk about whether Jared Leto will still be playing the Joker in the DCEU, and it looks like his days playing the role aren’t yet over as there are reports that the Joker and Harley Quinn movie is still happening. There had been reports that Jared Leto wasn’t going to…

Oh, Jared Leto. This is a bit of a sad story. I’m going to be honest, I was actually really positive on Jared Leto being cast as The Joker in David Ayer’s Suicide Squad. I thought, “Yeah, he’s strange enough to play The Joker. Sounds like good casting to me.” And then the pictures of…

It’s no wonder that Jared Leto was a bit upset by the fact that Warner Bros. Pictures had allowed another actor play the iconic DC Comics villain he had just played in Suicide Squad. Playing the Joker on-screen is a pretty big deal, and it would have felt like Warner Bros. and DC just wanted…
It was revealed earlier this year that Jared Leto won’t be appearing as The Joker is James Gunn’s The Suicide Squad, and many people were wondering why that might be.

2019 has been a rather strange year for many people, especially here in the UK.

It really seems as though Todd Phillips’ DC Comics movie, Joker, has split opinion, and I’m going to come and say it, that’s fine. People are allowed to have their opinion about a movie, and that’s what so brilliant about cinema. People disagree about movies. People have differing tastes, and that can sometimes spark interesting…
Joaquin Phoenix is in the headlines again today, but this time it’s not because of his fantastic performance in Joker. It’s been reported by TMZ that the Joker star was involved in a collision with a fire truck. They reported that the accident was just a minor one and it happened last Tuesday in West…
Back in 2016 Jared Leto was the man tasked with the huge burden of playing the Joker in David Ayer’s film, Suicide Squad. Yet when the film came out, people weren’t too impressed by his performance.

Joker has hit cinemas and its easily going to be one of the most controversial films of the year. It was making the headlines even before the film was released. Why is that you ask? It’s due to the violence in the movie. Not just the violence, but the type of violence. There are scenes…
It’s not every day that we get to see a new actor take on the role of the Joker on the big screen, yet last week audiences were introduced to Joaquin Phoenix’s version of the iconic villain in Joker. The last actor to play the role was, of course, Jared Leto, and that particular performance…
Director: Todd Philipps Starring: Joaquin Phoenix, Robert De Niro, Zazie Beetz When it was revealed that Warner Bros. Pictures and DC Comics had greenlit a standalone Joker movie, I was slightly suspicious.
