After weeks of teasers and instagram posts, we finally get to see Jared Leto unleashed as The Joker.

Dressed in a shiny burgundy suit and sporting vivid green hair, a white face and blacked-out eyes with the character's distictive red-slashed mouth, the actor looks every bit the maniac supervillain.

The latest pictures show the Oscar-winner shooting a scene with his beautiful Aussie co-star, Margot Robbie. Robbie plays Dr Harleen Quinzel who will later change her name (slightly) and become the wicked Harley Quinn. The pictures appear to show a flash-back of an early encounter between the two characters. 

In the scene, The Joker roars up in a red sports car with the number plates 'HAHAHA' and pulls Robbie’s fresh-faced character in for a kiss. In the comic book canon, Quinzel’s obsession with The Joker fuels her transformation into the vampish Quinn.

There are already clear foreshadowings of the troubles ahead when a trucker pulls out a crowbar and Quinzel shoots him before turning the gun on The Joker. In the ensuing fight, The Joker strikes her and sends her flying to the ground.

Suicide Squad also stars Will Smith as Deadshot and Cara Delevingne as Enchantress. Director David Ayer’s film features a motley crew of famous comic book villains who perform secret missions for the US government in return for shortened prison time.
