It was only last weekend when Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice trailer revealed itself after months of speculations, looks like DC/WB are not gonna let the hype die yet!  After weeks of teases including a haircut and some sneakily snapped private images, today director David Ayer used Twitter for a reveal from his super-villain team-up film Suicide Squad. Fans were stunned by the first image of Jared Leto as the new version of the Joker for the film, which began production this month.

Leto’s Joker looks unlike any live-action Joker we’ve seen before, and different from any Joker the mainstream public is familiar with. But comic book readers will probably recognize some of the key influences for this latest big screen incarnation of the Clown Prince of Crime, and however strange he might look, he’s definitely adapted from specific comics and is aesthetically pretty faithful to them.
