9) The Joker
Apart from Harley, another big draw of the film is the debut of a new incarnation of her puddin’ the Joker, portrayed by Jared Leto (Dallas Buyer’s Club). Infamously, Leto used extreme method acting tactics to get into the psychopathic clown’s head – like sending his co-stars weird gifts like a live rat and a box of bullets.
In the film itself, Joker won’t actually be part of the team, nor does he look to be the big bad. As such, it’s not entirely known what part he will play in the plot.
His new look was apparently inspired by the outfits of real-life drug lords, found on Instagram. It has also been vehemently denied that this version of the character was once Robin, as per a popular fan theory.
