Maybe it's fun mocking Jared Leto because he's a self-important dickhole.

Nice one, I would watch the hell out of that.

Here he is! How ya doin, buddy?

I think it's pretty clear the writer of this article was referring to the show.

Is that information available somewhere? The Deadline article doesn't say one way or the other.

To be fair, he is the result of an Australian government project to create an even more bland homunculus based on Sam Worthington.

Because it's part of a bigger pattern in Hollywood, and because it doesn't really make sense for June Moon to be that young anyway.

Yes. If the movie made more sense people would like it more; the fact that so much of it doesn't really make sense is key to the widespread criticism.

I know - I was implying that it was misplaced.

I remember. Sad! - Nostalgic Donald Trump

It also doesn't make sense because Harley is supposed to have been active as Harley for over ten years, but heaven forbid they cast someone over the age of 35 (even that would be pushing it for her to have been a psychiatrist before falling under the Joker's sway).

Yeah, it's a stretch, and I sincerely doubt the motivation for going that young with the casting was "Let's depict a female academic prodigy!"

You still have the thing where it's kind of hard to disavow your black ops group composed of expendable villains, who you've recruited in part to give you plausible deniability if things go south, when you also give them authorised military backup.

No-one said that. The conversation is about age gaps in Hollywood casting.

Yeah, they definitely cast Cara Delevingne as June Moon to make a point about how young women shouldn't be underrepresented in media depictions of academia. That sort of thing is firmly within David "The Hot Pants Symbolise Empowerment" Ayer's wheelhouse.

Jaaaaaysus Christ.

He's the off brand version of every method actor, and method acting is a pile of wank to begin with.

Remember when he put on a ton of weight to play Mark David Chapman in that horrific Chapter 23 movie and everyone mocked his pathetic angling for an Oscar in what was obviously a massive turdpile of a film?

It's okay to like a movie.

Every time I remember Jared Leto, I get a little sad.
