Heath Ledger was probably the best Joker ever, although Jack Nicholson fans (and himself) might disagree. In any case, Jared Leto picked up the mantle of Batman’s nemesis in Suicide Squad and gave it a, well, different vibe.
Leto is no stranger to movies and, thanks to his rock band, has lots of fans. So the least troubling piece of news here is the fact that this car exists. And that’s after being bashed at Reddit.
For starters, Leto’s Joker is a controversial character. We could argue that he didn’t do a bad job in a vacuum, but with everybody comparing his performance to that of the late Ledger… well, he was never to beat that one.
Then there’s the execution itself, which doesn’t exactly look top notch, as many have pointed out in the comments section. It almost seems as though somebody wrapped this Camaro in their garage, as opposed to relying on professionals.
Other controversial features include the pink wheels, pink rear wing, as well as a Monster logo decal on the rear window, according to the person who submitted the image.
The funny thing is that earlier this week we learned Warner Bros. and DC will be developing a standalone Joker movie, in which Leto will get to star. This movie will be different from the Joker origin-story film that’s also been green lit by the studio.
DC’s strategy of trying to catch up to Marvel seems to lack cohesion, doesn’t it? OK, not as much as this Chevy, but still…
