    David Ayer, the man behind Fury and End of Watch will be directing this film

    [​IMG]
    Here’s the official cast/character list:

    Jared Leto – The Joker
    Will Smith – Deadshot
    Tom Hardy – Rick Flagg
    Margot Robbie – Harley Quinn
    Jai Courtney – Boomerang
    Cara Delevingne – Enchantress
    Jessie Eisenberg - Lex Luthor

    Warner Bros. is still working on casting Amanda Waller, and is said to currently be eyeing Viola Davis, Octavia Spencer and Oprah Winfrey for the role. (Hopefully not Oprah)

    I'm really excited about this...These guys are the anti-heroes of DC. I mean exception being The Joker is more villain then anything, but this is awesome.

    I really don't like Will Smith. Other than that it looks okay.

    Wonder if Will Smith will figure out a way to squeeze his talentless son into the final cast.

    Jesus H Christ, they really need to stop casting Will Smith, and any of his relatives, in anything. That list for Waller is.. Oprah, really? CCH Pounder or Alfrie Woodard for Waller.

    I don't think Will Smith is all that bad, I mean he was good in "I AM LEGEND". Now his son on the other hand ...

    Everything about I Am Legend was bad. Especially Will Smith.

    I literally was just talking to Jared Leto a couple months ago. Very good choice to be the next Joker. Hope he transfers into Affleck's universe too.

    Jared is actually pretty crazy in real life. Might not have to act too much as Joker. Just throw some make-up on. Haha.

    Jared Leto is like the perfect man, somehow he cannot do any wrong

    Dude is a pretty boy, a rock star, a great actor (wins oscar), charismatic, and really naturally good at his craft.

    I expect a more psycho traditional Joker with him...I am thinking Animated Series type Joker...He was amazing in Dallas Buyers Club, for non-believers I think they should see him in that film.

    He is my favorite casting choice then Margot.

    Casting The Joker is no joke. Can't miss. I can't see how Leto will miss, so I agree the best casting choice. Robbie obviously seems like the perfect Harley Quinn though too. Can't wait to see the two of them together in character.

    It was based on a book. They changed the movie ending after a focus group viewing. The new ending completely made the rest of the movie make no sense and destroyed the entire point of the story.

    Always loved The Omega Man and Charlton Heston. First white on black kiss in a movie I believe.

    Yeah I know. That's why I don't like the movie.

    The fact that you have read the tweets of Will Smith's kid isn't odd, it's disturbing.

    I'm liking Leto as Joker, but he really doesn't have much of a connection to the Suicide Squad other than Harley Quinzel being in the group. Should be interesting
