Suicide Squad: 10 Major Spoilers From The Script Leak

2. The Joker Is Kind Of A Big Deal

According to that same report, there is a lot of action in the script but it primarily deals with Deadshot, Harley Quinn and The Joker. Despite it initially appearing that Jared Leto's Clown Prince Of Crime would only make a cameo appearance at the start of the film, thanks to Floyd's botched assassination attempt, it appears he'll be way bigger a deal throughout the whole film. In fact, he's being compared to a sort of Hannibal Lector role from Silence Of The Lambs. He'll be behind bars for the entirety of Suicide Squad, but he'll be providing information to Harley and the rest of the team, and perhaps even pulling the strings of the overall plot that the films runs on. Oh, and as for the rumours that Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor is also involved...yep, they appear to be true. Whoever is behind the bad guys €“ whether The Joker is involved or is just making the best of a bad situation €“ apparently their whole motivation is selling a weapon to Luthor. Crossovers!
