The Internet completely lost its mind when Suicide Squad director David Ayer revealed the first official image of Jared Leto as the Joker in the upcoming DC film last Friday. After you saw the image and felt a whole range of emotions, your next thought was probably, "What does Jack Nicholson have to say about all of this?"
Nicholson, of course, famously portrayed the Joker in Tim Burton's 1989 Batman film starring Michael Keaton in the title role. Nicholson's portrayal of the creepily jolly villain has been lauded as one of the best, even if there wasn't really anything special about his cartoonish appearance.
Still, we're all dying to know what he thinks about the new Joker look, which has launched a thousand memes, as any Internet revelation worth its wait in tweets should. Will he appreciate that the Joker looks even more psychotic than usual? Will he think this new take on the villain looks more ridiculous than scary? Will he rush out and get a "Damaged" tattoo on his forehead ASAP?
Well, my friends. The wait is over. Sort of. A YouTube user by the name of Toniemcee recently created a video that captures Nicholson's initial reaction to seeing Leto dressed up as the Joker. In fact, he might have even had the same reaction to the villain's new look as you did.
You can check out Nicholson's reaction in the video below.
OK, so as you can see, Toniemcee just added in the image of Leto's Joker into a clip from the 2002 film About Schmidt, so we'll have to wait and see what Nicholson actually thinks about the villain's new appearance. However, you still got out of this 90-second clip what you wanted, right?
