LOS ANGELES (AP) — In portraying The Joker, a man who lives in a world without rules, Jared Leto had only one very specific rule for himself for "Suicide Squad": Don't think about past interpretations.
That's no small thing. The cackling, unhinged character and arch nemesis of Batman is one of the more famous villains in pop culture. He's been portrayed unforgettably by both Jack Nicholson in Tim Burton's 1989 "Batman" and Heath Ledger in "The Dark Knight." It was one of...
