The Rumour

After being mostly cut out of Suicide Squad, Jared Leto's Joker will be returning for another bite of the cherry in Justice League.

The Killer Proof

According to ace scooper Umberto Gonzalez, it's a load of rubbish.

Would It Have Been Any Good?

No, actually.

Justice League needs a bigger, less personal villain than The Joker, who is too tied to Batman to sell an ensemble piece (even just as a cameo, he'd be extremely distracting).

But then again, as it is, we've got Steppenwolf (apparently) and Deathstroke - another very personal Batman villain - so who knows. As long as the villain isn't a huge amorphous blob with a bad temper, it'll be an improvement on Doomsday. And maybe The Joker should be kept for a Batman vs Joker movie.
