According to a summary provided by a Leto fansite on Tumblr (via Batman-News ), Leto is said to have felt "sort of tricked into being a part of something that had been pitched to him very differently."According to the report, Leto said he thought it would be a more artistic production and was "overwhelmed by all the hate regarding the look and choices." He also said he hasn't yet seen the film after being disappointed to hear what did and didn't make it into the theatrical cut.Leto also confirmed that his contract for Suicide Squad prohibited him from doing various dangerous activities that he enjoys, like rock climbing. In response to this stipulation by Warner Bros., Leto said "f—k 'em."Suicide Squad opened earlier this month to negative critical reception . While the theatrical release doesn't feature very much of Leto as the green-haired villain, the actor said he shot enough Joker material for a whole movie
