[Billbofet]

Nykes. Way to announce this is going to suck.

 

[AJUMP23]

Meh. Who keeps giving this guy jobs.

 

[Forsete]

Meh. Who keeps giving this guy jobs.

I wonder the same.

 

[Mihos]

Stop trying to make Jared Leto happen

 

[Esca]

Can't stand this dude

 

[rm082e]

He won an Oscar. He will always get work.

 

[SJRB]

Unironically loved him in Blade Runner 2049 as the reclusive tech genius weirdo but that's pretty much it.

Agreed on this. On a personal note, I came back around to liking his LA Gangster take on Joker, even though I'd still agree that visually he is a mess and the movie's writing isn't up to par. In another timeline I could see it working though.

He's a lot better in Ayer's cut.

The same people. From the same system.

Well, he does look like a skeleton?

 

[ReBurn]

I already know that this movie is dumb and it hasn't even been made yet.

 

[chromhound]

He better gain some weight lol

 

[Badlucktroll]

[Madflavor]

I know I'm getting old because I read this and I thought Jay Leno before I saw the picture.

 

[j0hnnix]

Alison Brie can come get summa dis.

Alison Brie can come get summa dis.

She has been staring as evil Lynn in my head for years

Even then that part was written for David Bowie but he died before filming.

[Brigandier]

 

[Dirk Benedict]

He fits the bill, tho... maybe just not personality-wise.

 

[ahtlas7]

Wooden, stilted, skeletal, yes, sounds like Leto.

Stop trying to make Jared Leto happen

He has happened. He's been acting since the 90s.

He's been in some fantastic films and deservedly won an Oscar for his role in Dallas Buyers Club.

Admittedly his choice of roles from 2016 onwards have been questionable. However, I still don't understand the flak Leto gets. The guy can act, but in recent years he's taken shit role. He needs a new agent.

 

[ClanOfNone]

Leto is a weirdo for sure, but he can definitely act. Requiem for a Dream will forever be seared into my memory.

Jared Leto isn't in Madame Web

This is you in every single thread. We need to bring back bullying.

 

[winjer]

This guy ahs made so many flops, it's impressive that he still gets parts in movies.
Leto is like the a "Quality Seal of Approval" but in reverse.

 

[jason10mm]

I think Hollywood has forgotten that while Skeletor has a skull for a face, the rest of him is WWE JACKED. He should be a physical match for He-man.

 

[RagnarokIV]

Who keeps giving this fucken doosh diggler work? He's shit.

 

[SJRB]

Even then that part was written for David Bowie but he died before filming.

I try not to think about this. Can you imagine Bowie in that role?

He would've crushed it.

 

[Putonahappyface]

He can pull off Skeletor no problem.

 

[Richard Packer]

Thanks for confirming you don't like tits.

 

[Dr. Samuel Hayden]

Leave it to hollywood to make the absolute dumbest casting choices possible

 

[Darkmakaimura]

I've never seen Jared Leto in anything.

 

[roosnam1980]

he was good in panic room

 

[Hawk The Slayer]

Don't know about this actor and didn't even know another movie was coming. But the 80s HE-MAN Master of the Universe was frickin awesome so hope this one would be too.

 

[poppabk]

I've never seen Jared Leto in anything.

He is permanently Joey Catalano in my head.

 

[Fbh]

Some got paid a lot of money to see stuff like Suicide Squad and Morbius and going like "Yeah, let's do another comic/cartoon adaption with Leto"

 

[Meicyn]

I've never seen Jared Leto in anything.

You've never seen American Psycho?
