Este é o novo look de Jared Leto, para o seu papel de "Joker" no filme "Suicide Squad" com estreia prevista para 2016.

Editado: Aproveitei o tópico solto do Evil_Djinn sobre a "transformação de Jared Leto e criei o tópico do "Suicide Squad". :wink:

Suicide Squad: everything you need to know



The latest news about the cast, characters and plot of Warner Bros' DC adaptation, starring Will Smith, Margot Robbie and Jared Leto

Image


What is the Suicide Squad?

In the DC comic books, the Suicide Squad is the name given to Task Force X, an elite team of supervillains working on behalf of the US government. Despite officially being in prison (arguably the best place for any supervillain), the Suicide Squad members are allowed out to carry out black ops missions, in return for reduced sentences.

Warner Bros are planning to continue their series of DC superhero adaptations with a Suicide Squad movie, due in cinemas on August 5 2016, and directed by Fury's David Ayer (if he can handle super tanks, we reckon he can definitely handle supervillains). While few plot details have been confirmed, it is believed that the film will be based on the DC comics written by John Ostrander, who developed the premise of a "modern Squad" carrying out black ops missions in the 1987 Legends DC comic series.

Where does the "suicide" part come in?

For obvious reasons, the missions carried out by the "Suicide" team are usually highly dangerous. Plus, due to their top-secret nature and the criminal status of the squad members, if one of the supervillains fails to return, it's a fair bet that no one's going to be kicking up much of a fuss or looking too closely at their death.

According to Cinema Blend, in some of the original comics, the squad members are also fitted with under-the-skin miniature bombs "which can be detonated if they try to escape or cause trouble during the mission".

Who's who?

Amanda Waller (Viola Davis)

Image

The formidable Dr Amanda Waller, who first appeared in a 1986 DC comic book, is a doctor of political science and former government aide who now runs the Suicide Squad. Hailing from the tough streets of Chicago (where she witnessed the murder of her husband and daughter), Waller fought hard to get to a position of power, and is nicknamed "The Wall" due to her reputation for stubborness (and possibly also for her intimidating appearance). While she isn't a "black superhero" – she's fully human, and far too morally ambiguous for "hero" status" – she has frequently been described as one of the more interesting black DC comic book characters. It was initially rumoured that talk show host Oprah Winfrey had been cast in the role, but the part eventually went to Viola Davis, who is best known for the 2011 film The Help, and for the TV series How to Get Away with Murder. Waller was also recently portrayed by Cynthia Addai-Robinson in the television series Arrow.

Rick Flagg (Joel Kinnaman)

Image

A no-nonsense military officer, Flagg is charged with keeping an eye on Suicide Squad members during their missions. Tom Hardy was originally lined up to play the character, but, after scheduling conflicts forced him to drop out, the role eventually went to the Swedish actor Joel Kinnaman, who starred in the US TV series The Killing, and in 2014's Robocop.

Harley Quinn (Margot Robbie)

Image

Otherwise known as Dr Harleen Frances Quinzel (no wonder she wanted to change her name), Harley Quinn is a relatively recent, but incredibly popular addition to the DC world. She was first introduced in 1992, via the Warner Bros television cartoon, Batman: The Animated Series. Originally a psychiatrist at a Gotham asylum, Quinn ends up falling for the Joker and becoming a criminal herself, donning a distinctive Harlequin-inspired outfit. Model Cara Delevingne was originally in talks for the role, but was given the part of Enchantress instead. Margot Robbie (who shot to fame in The Wolf of Wall Street) was eventually cast as Quinn; the film will see the actress reunited with her Focus co-star Will Smith.

Image

Deadshot (Will Smith)

Image

An expert marksman (hence the name), Deadshot, aka Floyd Lawton, is an assassin with a near-perfect record (his cybernetic eye piece, designed to improve accuracy, probably helps). Interestingly, the character's disregard for the lives of other humans is matched by an equal disregard for his own life: appropriately enough, Deadshot has a "suicide wish", and was motivated to join the squad by his desire to die in a dramatic, spectacular manner. While the character has been previously portrayed on the TV series Arrow (by Michael Rowe), he remains a relatively little-known DC villain. In a recent interview with MTV News, Will Smith spoke about how he hopes to create the definitive big-screen version of the villain: “With this character and the DC world, I love that I’m getting the opportunity for the global definition of Deadshot." Deadshot is believed to be one of the lead characters in Suicide Squad.

Image

The Joker (Jared Leto)

Image

One of the most famous DC villains of all, The Joker arguably needs no introduction. The clown-faced psychopath, who made his comic book debut in 1940, is widely regarded as Batman's ultimate nemesis. Leto is the first actor to play the Joker since Heath Ledger took on the role in Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight (and earned a posthumous Best Supporting Actor Oscar), but it's a fair bet that Leto will be putting his own unique spin on the character, although it's anyone's guess as to exactly how he will do this. Appearance-wise, we have a few more clues: thanks to a Twitter updater from David Ayer, we know that Leto has shed his lovely long locks (sob) for the role. And, thanks to this Hollywood Reporter interview, we know that the actor is currently bulking up, and is planning to "gain a lot of weight".

It's not yet 100 per cent clear whether the Joker will be part of the official Suicide Squad line-up, or whether he'll be involved in the story in some other way, although some rumours have suggested that he may even come face to face with old enemy Batman in the film (See "What about Batman?", below).

Image

Enchantress (Cara Delevingne)

Image

Model Cara Delevingne will be continuing her transition to an acting career (later this year, you'll be able to see her play a mermaid in Joe Wright's Pan) by taking on the role of the relatively little-known DC character Enchantress, otherwise known as June Moore. A powerful sorceress, Enchantress lacks the ability to control her powers. In the comic books, she has been portrayed as both a superhero, and a supervillain, so it'll be interesting to see where Suicide Squad decides to take the character. Fun Enchantress fact: for some reason, in the comic books, the character always carries a roll of duct tape.

Boomerang (Jai Courtney)

Image

Boomerang, aka Fred Myers, is a supervillain and assassin-for-hire who makes the most of his Australian heritage, utilising a collection of (you guessed it) specially customised deadly boomerangs to take down his victims. He'll be portrayed in Suicide Squad by Terminator: Genisys star Jai Courtney.

Unknown character (Jay Hernandez)

Last month, it was reported that Jay Hernandez (Hostage, World Trade Center) was in talks to join the Suicide Squad cast. While his role is yet to be officially confirmed, a recent report from The Wrap suggested that "he could be playing an inmate on the same cell block as The Joker". That said, at this stage, it's just as likely that Hernandez will be playing a government official, or an outsider who crosses paths with the Sucide Squad in some other way.


What about Lex Luthor?

Image

Right now, no one knows for sure whether or not Jesse Eisenberg's Lex Luthor (the key villain from Warner Bros' forthcoming Batman vs Superman) will be popping up in Suicide Squad. But rumours that the character will have a part to play in the film have been circulating for quite a while now. Last year, the website Latino Review reported on a possible leaked Suicide Squad storyline for Luthor, in which the character was involved in the "trafficking" of superheroes (link contains possible spoilers). On a slightly less important note, given his closely cropped hairstyle, it's looking more and more likely that Eisenberg's Luthor will be bald.

And Batman?

Image

In January 2015, a report from Forbes suggested that Ben Affleck's Batman could be appearing in Suicide Squad, towards the end of the film. The article also indicated that Batman's storyline would be linked to that of Jared Leto's Joker, and would pave the way for The Joker to appear as the primary antagonist in DC's planned standalone Batman film. The story remains unconfirmed, but with Warner Bros intent on building their own Marvel-style "cinematic universe", a Suicide Squad cameo from one of their most popular DC heroes doesn't seem too unlikely. Furthermore, the film will hit cinemas just a few months after the release of Warner Bros' Batman vs Superman: an Affleck cameo could provide a nice way of tying up any loose Batman story threads, and help fans mentally link the Suicide Squad movie to its heavily-anticipated predecessor.


What will it be like?

Image

Given director David Ayer's penchant for dark, gritty material (such as Fury and Training Day). many fans are hoping that Suicide Squad will be a "grown-up" superhero (or supervillian) movie: think Christopher Nolan's sombre Batman trilogy, rather than Marvel's flamboyantly "fun" Avengers. Comments made by Ayer during an interview last year also arguably back this theory. Ayer spoke about the idea of the Sucide Squad characters as "fallen gods", telling Empire: "I think there’s something incredible about the comic genre and technology has finally caught up with pen and ink to render these fantastic worlds in a way that feels believable and visceral to audiences. It’s a secular religion in that regards. The mythology that these characters represent – the idea of them as fallen gods on Earth – is intriguing to me. I can’t wait to start exploring those corridors.”

However, while Ayer's comments suggests that he may well be planning to bring out some of the darker elements of the comic book source material, don't expect anything too hardcore. Cinemablend points out that, for obvious commercial reasons (Warner Bros won't want to alienate DC's younger fanbase), the filmmakers will likely be aiming for a US PG13 rating. While there's no direct UK equivalent, many films rated PG13 in America are rated 12A over here. IN other words, they'll be darkness, but there probably won't be (too much) blood.

UAU :o
Yes, I like it too yes-) ...bery much.

8) Isto vai ser em grande, BRUTAL mesmo!!!! :twisted:

Ando a seguir este projecto desde o início e quando soube quem iria ser o realizador - BUUMMM...
Com este elenco, com a história deste grupo e principalmente com o David Ayer à frente deste filmão é um dos blockbusters da DCcomics que mais aguardo, com imensa expectativa.

A DCcomics ao que parece afinal não está a ser tão "trapalhona" como alguns apregoam e a prova disso é que estão a recrutar jovens realizadores muito talentosos para os seus filmes.

Snyder e Ayer já não pertencem aos pesos médios e tenho a certeza que depois de "Dawn of Justice" e deste "Suicide Squad" a Marvel vai sentir uma comichão na nuca um pouco incomodativa.

Venha ele!! salut-)

Os dois trailers DC (Batman/Superman, e este Suicide Squad) revelados na Comic-Con são excelentes indicadores, mas confesso que estou mais em pulgas pelo Suicide Squad(são dos meus comics favoritos da DC).
Penso que o tom que a DC quer imprimir ao seu universo é totalmente diferente do da Marvel.
Como fã e parte do público-alvo, não compreendo muito bem esta constante hostilidade entre as duas companhias.
Acho que se podem complementar perfeitamente em termos de histórias e tons narrativos, oferecendo experiências diferentes aos expectadores: não vou deixar de ver os filmes Marvel por causa dos da DC, nem vice-versa.
E, muito sinceramente, duvido que os resultados de bilheteira destes dois filmes façam grande mossa á Marvel, principalmente em ano de "Civil War". Mas a concorrência pode ser positiva e estimular quer um lado quer outro a dar tudo por tudo, o que resultará certamente em melhores filmes de ambos os lados.

Duvido que os filmes da DC façam alguma mossa nos filmes da Marvel, a marca Marvel neste momento vale ouro, faz falta na DC alguém como o Kevin Feige que supervisione todos os filmes.

E já agora, para um cheirinho do que poderá ser este filme, aconselho o visionamento da animação "Batman: Assault on Arkham"

Eu também não os vejo como competição. São de empresas diferentes de comics, mas para mim um não rouba ao outro. Não deixo de ver uns por causa dos outros. :-)

Isso da ausência de um Kevin Feige não me afecta em nada. Ok, por enquanto os filmes da DC não têm o cross over que os da Marvel têm, mas isso nem interessa. Por mim podem ser todos stand alone (e não o serão por muito mais tempo), desde que sejam bons.

Este Joker do Jared Leto está melhor do que esperava. yes-) Visualmente e em comportamente é MUITO diferente do de Heath Ledger. Apenas a voz parece inspirada pela interpretação do Ledger, de resto está completamente diferente.

O visual do Joker neste filme lembra-me muito os jogos Batman da saga Arkham (Arkham Asylum, Arkham City, Arkham Origins e Arkham Knight). E tem a Harley Quinn também.

Por falar em Harley Quinn, a Margot Robbie fica super-sensual com aquele look todo marado.
Não me importava nada que ela me violentasse um bocadinho pato-) .

gostei do trailer, mas principalmente da Margot, acho-a boa actriz e parece ter-se empenhado para o papel e deverá dar uma excelente Harley.
o Leto como Joker também não deverá desiludir e este look fica-lhe bem, o desafio vai ser criar uma historia cativante e dar relevo ao restante elenco, e claro, saber o que fazer com o batman

Aqui está uma simbiose (quase) perfeita entre "Bohemian Rhapsody" dos Queen e "Suicide Squad" :-)))




Bom trailer. yes-)
