Jared Leto unveils muscular body transformation

LONDON: Oscar-winning actor Jared Leto has revealed his new muscular body which he has built for the role of Joker in "Suicide Squad".

The first "Suicide Squad" photo of the maniacal and tattooed new Joker was unveiled last week, reported Digital Spy.

The latest Instagram photo lends more credence to predictions that this new Joker will be markedly different than Heath Ledger's master manipulator or Jack Nicholson's laughing lunatic.



Director David Ayer's "Suicide Squad" brings together DC villains on a mission of redemption mandated by government operative Amanda Waller ( Viola Davis).

Waller's squad includes team leader Rick Flagg ( Joel Kinnaman), Harley Quinn ( Margot Robbie), Boomerang ( Jai Courtney) and Deadshot ( Will Smith).

As their mission takes shape, the Suicide Squad will encounter fellow DC villains Slipknot ( Adam Beach), Plastique ( Karen Fukuhara), Killer Croc (Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje) and the Enchantress ( Cara Delevingne).

"Suicide Squad" is currently filming in Canada for a summer 2016 release.
