According to reports, Will Smith’s Deadshot, Jared Leto’s Joker and Margot Robbie’s Harley Quinn will be tangled in a “ragged love triangle”.
Speaking to Empire magazine, Smith admitted: "Harley is the biggest troublemaker, but Deadshot's actually eyeballing her a little bit. There’s a pretty ragged romantic triangle there."
"As the movie opens, [Deadshot] has a really big career score. He's looking to turn over a new leaf with his daughter after the hit, but it goes wrong. It goes terribly, terribly wrong. And it lands him in [prison] Belle Reve for life.”
In the same article director David Ayer gave more details about Quinn’s story, saying: “[Her story] is about her breaking free of The Joker and becoming this fully actualised, independent person. That really is a metaphor for everyone's journey here."
Jared Leto’s Joker was featured on the front cover of the magazine, giving us our first full-length shot of the Batman villain. He said that playing the character was like “giving birth out of my prick hole’”.
Suicide Squad will hit cinemas in August 2016.
