Jared Leto was the fourth actor to play The Joker in live action on the big screen, following Caesar Romero, Jack Nicholson and Heath Ledger, so it was inevitable that he would need to do something different with the character to make him stand out in the DC Extended Universe. He certainly accomplished that. According to other members of the Suicide Squad cast and crew, he never broke character on or off camera, and on top of that, he gave his fellow actors weird gifts to show just how crazy Joke can be. While this internal exploration may have been necessary to get in touch with his inner madman for the role, many will agree that giving a dead pig and used condoms that took his approach beyond method acting and into harassment territory.
