Heath Ledger's Academy Award winning take on The Joker is nothing short of iconic, and the fact that it would be one of his final performances makes it even harder for another actor to follow in his footsteps. However, if there's one man it's easy to imagine being right to take on the Clown Prince of Crime on the big screen, it's Dallas Buyers Club's Jared Leto! In a recent profile over at The Hollywood Reporter, the actor once again seems to hint that The Joker may be the role to bring him out of his break from acting. "Of course, Leto hasn't abandoned acting altogether and hints that he may have zeroed in on his next major role. Rumors on the Internet suggest it could be the Joker in a big-screen version of the DC comic Suicide Squad. "I've sworn to keep my mouth shut" is all he will say." This is Paul Rudd as Ant-Man all over again! What do you guys think?
