The first image of Jared Leto as The Joker in the upcoming Suicide Squad movie has been released. Shock horror, people seem to be divided about it.
Personally, I think he looks great. We had the cartoonish version of Mr J with Cesar Romero and Jack Nicholson's portrayals, we've had a more believable and psychotic portrayal with Heath Ledger, and now it looks like we're getting a completely deranged version with Jared Leto.
Sure the tattoos seem a bit out of place, but we don't know how much they'll be on display throughout the movie (aside from the one on his head, obviously, which actually looks 'shopped on in the picture). The gangsta grill will take some getting used to, as well.
Regardless, I'm reserving judgement until I see the film, but this absolutely is not putting me off.
