Trailer today. Sick posters!
Ayer on Leto's Joker:
"It’s a scary character to tackle," Suicide Squad director David Ayer says of Joker. "This iteration of him, people will realize there really is a continuity of history — there is a lot of respect for what the Joker represents, who he is as a character. He is the best known villain in fiction so there’s an incredible responsibility there to also be faithful to what he is but at the same time push him into this next world, next time, next phase."Ayer adds that "people kept their distance" from Leto when he was in 24/7 Joker mode. "I love helping actors find what methodology works best for them. It’s like tailoring a suit — it’s not one size fits all. But it really made an event when he would show up on set. There was almost a pageantry to him, which did translate into the character and the power on screen he has."
Leto even freaked out Ayer a few times.
"Big time. The hairs stand up on the back of your neck," says the director, a longtime comic-book who grew up on the old 1960s Batman TV show. " If you're a Batman fan, you have to love/hate the Joker because he’s the best nemesis ever. Just to have him on one of my film sets, it was a very memorable thing for me."
While Ayer had Joker, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice director Zack Snyder got his Dark Knight foe, played by Ben Affleck (who also makes an appearance in Suicide Squad). Snyder, a Squad producer, never was on the Toronto set with Leto "but I was very much looped in on the crazy stuff happening with that," he says, laughing.What Leto brings to the Joker — the first on screen since the late Heath Ledger's Oscar-winning The Dark Knight baddie — is a fearless nature, according to Snyder.
"The commitment to the role, you’re going to see that really shine through in a way that you’re not used to seeing actors in movies really go all the way with (in) every little moment and every little breath," Snyder says. "You’re going to get taken on a journey with Jared that I don’t know that everyone’s ready for but I think it will be amazing."

not impressed.. looks like shit. hope will smith's oscar boycott doesn't come back and bite him in the ass hahahahaha
I cant believe Captain Boomerang makes his film debut before the Flash. Stupid
Trailer looked good though, with the exception of Harley. Her voice doesn't have that same annoying brooklyn tone/accent it usually has. She feels off.
Also, as much as I like the guy, Will Smith is no Floyd Lawton
EDIT: Scratch the Flash comment, turns out he's in BvS. Hopefully its more than 4 minutes
