London, Aug 27 (PTI) Actor-musician Jared Leto said he is proud to star as The Joker in the DC Extended Universe.
The 45-year-old actor starred as Batman’s main nemesis The Joker in super-villain blockbuster “Suicide Squad” and now he is set to reprise the role in a standalone movie, reported Contactmusic.
“Everything’s great in that world, and I’m really proud to be a part of it,” Leto said.
Glenn Ficarra and John Requa, who wrote and helmed 2011’s “Crazy, Stupid, Love” – and also worked as directors and executive producers on NBC’s hit drama “This Is Us” – are reportedly in final negotiations to helm the as-yet untitled DCEU movie.
Warner Bros. and DC Entertainment were believed to be in the early stages of putting the “Batman” spin-off together.
