Jared Leto Has Some Choice Words For Warner Bros. After SUICIDE SQUAD; "F**k 'Em!"
Jared Leto has been expressing his frustrations with Warner Bros. a lot lately after Suicide Squad, but the outspoken actor has now taken the studio to task in regards to his contract, their final cut, and more...
Jared Leto has made it clear that he was upset to find out that so many of his scenes as The Joker were cut from Suicide Squad, and during a Q&A with fans this weekend at "Camp Mars" (a meet up of sorts for fans of his band Thirty Seconds to Mars), the Oscar winner made his dissatisfaction clear. While we don't have the actual quotes, one fan on Tumblr (via Batman-News) summarised his thoughts:
"He was very honest about the film this weekend; his disappointment in what he’s learned of the theatrical cut (he’s still not seen the film); feeling sort of tricked into being a part of something that had been pitched to him very differently; thinking it would’ve been more artistic than what it became; feeling overwhelmed by the hate regarding the look and choices." That's not good!
At this point, it feels like Leto might think twice about reprising the role of The Joker (unless Ben Affleck is able to tempt him back). As if to further stick it to Warner Bros., Leto went on to talk about how his contract with the studio prohibits him from dangerous activities like rock climing, something he shares pictures of a fair bit on social media. His thoughts on what they think about that? "F*ck ’em!"
