In commemoration of The Joker's 75th birthday, David Ayers shares to his Twitter followers the first official image of Jared Leto as The Joker... and it really is something.

Now, I am trying very hard to stay optimistic. I like that this Joker sports the white skin and bright green hair... a far cry from the grease paint and scarred Joker from Nolan's trilogy, but the tattoos and the blinged out grill make his seem less like The Joker and more like a green haired Juggalo.
I'll stay optimistic... even if I'm not a fan of the visual direction... I hope the writing makes up for it.
