Zack Snyder shared a new photo of Jared Leto’s Joker, who made an appearance inZack Snyder’s Justice League. The film allowed Snyder to correct all of the mistakes made by Joss Whedon’s intervention of the film.
Justice Leaguebrought back all of the characters Snyder introduced in his world of DC heroes. Many of these characters never got to see their roles in the universe fully realized thanks to Warner Bros. and DC. Martian Manhunter, Green Lantern, Darkseid, Joker, The Atom, and Deathstroke were all teased to have bigger roles to play.Joe Maganiello was on board to return as Deathstrokeat one point and even campaigned for a solo project. Now the actor has given up on seeing his character return.

Snyder has been releasing little tid bits of information about his cancelled sequels in the years following his departure, and now his latest offering is a new Vero image of Leto’s Joker. The character was received a lot better in theJustice Leaguemovie than he was inDavid Ayer’sSuicide Squad.TheJustice LeagueJoker was more in line with what fans are familiar with and audiences got to see him interact with Ben Affleck’s Batman in a very heated conversation. This version of Joker was also from the “Knightmare” reality where the character sported long hair and a much more deranged look than usual.
Jared Leto has now moved over to Marvel and is playingthe iconic vampire Morbius, who is a foil to both Spider-Man and Blade. The character has been teased to appear in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) that’s produced by Disney, so hopefully this ends up happening and fans can see all three characters on the screen together.Morbiusis scheduled to hit theaters in January 2022.
Much of what Snyder reveals makes fans wish that his vision became realized. The amount of depth he would’ve brought to his telling of the DC world could’ve competed with Marvel, but it unfortunatley didn’t see the light of day. Most frequently, Snyder shares concept art of characters that fans didn’t get to see too much of.
Seeing as how Warner Bros. and DC haven’t been standing by their talent as of late, it’s hard to see what the DCEU’s future looks like. Right now they struck a high note withThe Suicide Squadand many are anticipatingMatt Reeves’The Batman. So hopefully they can keep the stride going, but if they’re going to keep winning then let’s hope that Warner Bros. and DC manage to treat their talent and crew right.
