Joker

Odds are you’ve probably rolled your eyes more than a few times after hearing Jared Leto’s approach to playing the Joker in the upcoming Suicide Squad. We’ve talked here before about the actor’s refusal to break character and his uncomfortable gifts to his costars; what we should also remember is that Leto’s Joker seems to be the perfect version of that character for Zack Snyder and David Ayer's vision of the DC universe. If Leto’s take on the Joker proves the quiet optimists like me right, DC Films would do well to give audiences a chance to see Ben Affleck’s Batman and Jared Leto’s Joker in action.

Jared Leto's very... ahem... "contemporary" looking Joker has set the internet on fire, but you'd be hard-pressed to find someone that took it worse than Jack Nicholson.

"Bye Bye." Those are the chilling final words scrawled in capital letters on the last page of a diary the late Heath Ledger kept as he was filming 'The Dark Knight,' his final movie. Ledger's father, Kim, opened up Ledger's Joker diary publicly for the first time for the upcoming documentary 'Too Young to Die,' giving fans a fascinating glimpse into how the late actor created one of the most memorable movie villains of all-time.

Why were Free Beer and Hot Wings studying an old 1979 Australian TV interview with Tom Waits this morning? To determine whether or not Heath Ledger based his Oscar-winning performance as the Joker on it. Of course!
