Just how unhappy was Jared Leto over Joker? As Todd Phillips’ dark take on the villain looks likely to gross more than $700 million worldwide, sources tell The Hollywood Reporter that Leto’s frustration that Warner Bros. was moving ahead with the Phillips project was so great early on that he tried to throttle the rival Joker in its cradle.

According to sources familiar with Leto’s behavior, when the Oscar-winning actor learned of the Phillips project, he not only complained bitterly to his agents at CAA, who also represent Phillips, but asked his music manager, Irving Azoff, to call the leader of Warners parent company (it’s unclear whether it was Time Warner’s Jeff Bewkes or AT&T’s Randall Stephenson, depending on the timing). The idea was to get Warners to kill the Phillips film.

Just saw it. It's a great film, but you could've removed all the Batman references and it still be the same movie.

Well I never followed the comics but why was he sad or what sent him off the deep end so to speak? Also did the joker in the comic try to seek help?

Just read the headline about Leto trying to stop this. What a fukkboy. :scust:
I mean, I can understand Leto's POV.

Dude gets to play a character that always has people anticipating the performance. The studio cuts a bunch of his shyt, then green lights a movie where someone else is going to be playing the same character. Why wouldn't he have the:mjtf:

It's Hollywood. Dudes get recast all the time. :usure:

Dude's just bitter AF. No one really gave a shyt about his version anyway.
