Director Zack Snyder has shared a new image of Jared Leto as the Joker from his upcoming extended cut of Justice League, known as the “Snyder Cut.”
Snyder himself shared the image on Vero, and you can see it below. It’s intentionally fuzzy and quite stylish. In the black-and-white shot, the Clown Prince of Crime is holding his trademark card with a gloved hand. His face is blurred out, but it’s enough to see that Leto isn’t sporting the exact same look as when we saw him in Suicide Squad.
Snyder left Justice League during production to deal with a sudden family tragedy. Avengers director Joss Whedon came in to finish the film, but that version wasn’t precisely what Snyder might have aimed for. Snyder is now working on a new edition of the movie with additional scenes, including sequences with Leto as the Joker.
The Snyder Cut releases on March 18 through HBO Max as a four-hour film. It also stars Ben Affleck as Batman, Henry Cavill as Superman, Amy Adams as Lois Lane, Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman, and Jason Momoa as Aquaman. Ezra Miller returns to play The Flash, while Ray Fisher plays Cyborg. Jessee Eisenberg portrays Lex Luthor, J.K. Simmons plays Gordon, Jeremy Irons appears as Alfred Pennyworth, and Diane Lane plays Martha Kent.
The “Release The Snyder Cut” social media movement fired up in recent years, especially after WB initially had said they were never going to release it.
