Jared Leto is returning to the DC Comics fold, reprising his role as the Joker from 2016's Suicide Squad in Zack Snyder's new version of Justice League, Variety has confirmed.

It's unclear whether Leto was always meant to appear in Justice League before Snyder left the feature in early 2017 in advance of significant reshoots by filmmaker Joss Whedon, or if Leto is a new addition given the four-hour length of Snyder's updated Justice League, which will premiere on HBO Max in 2021.
