Deadline reports that Jared Leto (Suicide Squad, Blade Runner 2040) is in early negotiations to play the lead role on Sony Pictures' Valiant Comics adaptation, Bloodshot.

The project will follow Harbinger as the second film in a five-picture deal between Beverly Hills/Beijing-based DMG and Valiant Entertainment. Neal Moritz will produce, while Blur Studios' Dave Wilson is on board as director.

If Leto does sign on, he'll play Angelo Mortalli, who starts out as a ruthless mob killer before being forcibly subjected to an experimental program which leaves him with superhuman strength and healing abilities.

Apparently, sequels are planned for both Harbinger and Bloodshot before the title characters meet in a Harbinger Wars movie.

In other news, someone pointed out that there was a leaked version of the JL Trailer from an International DC Page that had Green Lantern at the end.

@Ha1frican - That's in the YouTube series being made by Bat in the Sun. This is for a full-blown live-action movie.
