Jared Leto will star as The Joker, Joel Kinnaman as Rick Flagg, Will Smith as Deadshot, Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn, Jai Courtney as Captain Boomerang, Cara Delevingne as Enchantress, and Viola Davis as Amanda Waller.
The Joker is also rumored to make an appearance in "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" which is due March 25, 2016. Latino-Review reports [SPOILER ALERT!] the villain will beat Jason Todd a.k.a. Robin to death in a flashback scene.
Amid the rumor, Leto posted a picture of his ripped body in a Superman tank top. In a previous photo, he's seen rocking numerous body-inks including a "damaged" tattoo on his forehead which sparked debate among fanboys. A new rumor now suggests those tattoos are only used for promo shoot and won't appear in the movie.
