AceShowbiz - Director David Ayer chose the word "majestic" when asked by his Twitter follower to describe Jared Leto's Joker in upcoming movie "Suicide Squad" in one word. Leto himself has previously described the part as a "nearly Shakespearean character." The actor was quoted as saying, "The opportunity to take on this nearly Shakespearean character - that's what graphic novels and comic books are becoming, right? [He's] this beautiful disaster of a character - what a big challenge."

"Sets are going up #skwad," so he captioned one shot. "Testing new iPad controlled lights. Old school light on left. #skwad," so read a caption of the other photo.
