RUMOR: 'The Joker' Will Appear In BATMAN v SUPERMAN To Recreate This Iconic Comic Scene

No wonder Jared Leto is bulking up! Based on a new report, it sounds like he'll be swinging around a crowbar in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice during the recreation of an iconic moment from the comic books. Hit the jump for details on that and Ben Affleck's Suicide Squad role...

Man of Steel didn't really tease a shared DC Cinematic Universe, but Batman v Superman and Suicide Squad look set to change that in a major way. Latino-Review have dropped some very interesting details about the ties between those two movies today, and it turns out that Jared Leto will be shooting scenes for both while in Toronto. They reveal that it will be a flashback scene which depicts The Joker beating Jason Todd, a.k.a. Robin, to death (presumably with a crowbar). 

That will explain why he's behind bars and may even tie in with those rumours we heard a long time ago about Batman giving up crime fighting until Superman enters the scene. Robin's costume will be on display in the Batcave, and the site theorises that that could be what triggers the flashback. They also reveal that Bruce Wayne/Batman will be making an appearance in Suicide Squad, with the Batmobile reportedly on site in Toronto too. What do you think about these latest details?

"I'd heard murmurs of a flashback sequence that had supposedly been added to Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice where we'd see Jared Leto's Joker beating and killing Jason Todd, aka Robin." [frick]. Yes.

I have a feeling the DCCU is going to be huge. The scope of MoS alone gave me goosebumps, imagine BvS and SS?

This all sounds [frick]ing awesome, but there's just one little detail missing:


WHO THE [frick] IS PLAYING ROBIN!?

Make it [frick]ing so! Batman: Under The Hood is perfect for his first solo outing. Damn, this is awesome.

Where'd you get that video from?

MrCBM56 - 4/28/2015, 2:21 PM
The Bat family, Joker, maybe Quinn, Black Mask (or some other gang leader quite honestly), Red Hood/Jason, Ra's... Damn. I hope this is true just because of the possibilities it sets.

@MisterBatfleck It might a stand in or we'll just The Joker hitting the camera in a POV shot.

I reckon the rumour that started about Dick Grayson dying came from someone who didn't know the difference between Grayson & Todd. Some guy probably overheard about a scene where "joker kills robin" & it spiraled from there. Just a theory, but I could totally imagine that happening.

The beating [frick]ed him up, the explosion put the nail in the coffin(pun?).

There's so many characters getting crammed into this movie, might as well just call it
"Being gangbanged by the entire DC roster"

IT'S ALL CONNECTED!!! GET IT!!! GET IT, EVERYONE!!! WINK WINK!!! JUSTICE LEAGUE COMING!!! GET IT?!? DO YOU GET IT YET?!?

For the record, I don't hate DC. Flash, Arrow, and now even Gotham are kicking ass. The Joker is awesome.. yada yada yada...

It's just DC is so insecure about their movies right now, it's obvious and embarrassing.

Also this will probably be Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice's post credits scene or something.

So, instead of shwarma and awesome, everyone leaves the theater depressed and terrified.

Again, DO NOT TAKE YOUR KIDS TO SEE THIS MOVIE! I'm serious. Child suicides are real. Don't traumatize them with this shit.
