'Suicide Squad' Cast News, Update: The Joker and Deathstroke Details Revealed
Two new rumours pointing out to David Ayer's upcoming big screen offering "Suicide Squad" reveal details of two of its iconic characters: The Joker and Deathstroke.
Latino Review indicated in their report that Jared Leto's The Joker won't appear like what he did in the comic books, which is lanky and seemingly weak. Leto's sinister character will be based on The Dark Knight Returns' version which is "lean and scarred" and his "suit does have broad shoulders."
"Joker works out in his cell like an inmate when he is interrogated by Amanda Waller. He's doing hand stand push ups so it makes sense that Jared Leto said he is putting on weight. He's definitely not skinny, but in fact more muscular," LR wrote.

The publication further dished out that the face of Leto's Joker would be "bleached" and not heavily laden with make up.
Other than the Joker, the media outlet went on to reveal details about another "Suicide Squad" member named Deathstroke. It was revealed that the infamous hitman is working "with/for" the villain network ONSLAUGHT.
It was also found out that the villain turned government operative has otherworldly sharpshooting skills but is devoid of any superpowers.
"They're going for a pre-super villain Deathstroke. He's a huge part of both of the major set pieces of the film. His introduction is INSANE!" the site said.
The tactical character is also set to amaze long-time fanatics and newbie viewers alike.
"The running gun battle that sources are describing is something else. His suit is very stealth oriented. They used an actual US military tactical outfit for the basis. He's armed to the teeth, uses a sword and automatics. In concept artwork he has two eyes. The mask is there and it's the iconic one," Latino Review further detailed.
"Suicide Squad" is slated to hit the big screen on August 5, 2016.
