A never-before-seen photo of Jared Leto as The Joker has been revealed by Suicide Squad director David Ayer on Instagram.
The photo in question shows Jared Leto’s Joker rocking an alternate costume than the one he donned in Suicide Squad. This brand new look of Jared Leto’s Joker sees him wearing a white jacket with no shirt underneath. Jared Leto’s Joker is also wearing two necklaces in this image from the Suicide Squad set.

In the caption for the image, David Ayer discussed how there were multiple wardrobe options for Jared Leto’s Joker in Suicide Squad, with this being one of the several ones tested on film. In the end, the Suicide Squad director opted to go with the black tuxedo we saw in the final film as it was more faithful to the comics.
Director David Ayer most likely won’t be making another film for the DC Extended Universe and after the anger Jared Leto had towards Warner Bros. for making a solo Joker movie without him, we can imagine that both are done with the Suicide Squad. Since we’re three years removed from Jared Leto’s performance as The Joker, it’s quite likely that we’ll be seeing more behind-the-scenes stuff trickle out from director David Ayer in a similar fashion to Zack Snyder, who has been releasing images of Justice League these past few months.

David Ayer’s Suicide Squad followed a team of supervillains who were recruited by the government for a dangerous black ops mission in exchange for reduced sentences. The sequel will see the return of four cast members from that film: Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn, Viola Davis as Amanda Waller, Jai Courtney as Captain Boomerang, and Joel Kinnaman as Rick Flag.
James Gunn is expected to deliver on the fresh take on the supervillain team in his upcoming movie, with Idris Elba playing a new character on the team, David Dastmalchian starring as Polka-Dot Man, Daniela Melchior as Ratcatcher, and Steve Agee voicing King Shark. Other cast members confirmed for the ensemble picture include John Cena, Storm Reid, Flula Borg, Nathan Fillion, Taika Waititi, Peter Capaldi, Michael Rooker, Sean Gunn, Mayling Ng, Jennifer Holland, Pete Davidson, Juan Diego Botto, Alice Braga, Tinashe Kajese, Julio Ruiz, and Joaquín Cosío.
