RUMOR: Joker Has Justice League Cameo?
The Joker may be popping up in Justice League
The Joker isn’t the villain in Justice League, but that doesn’t mean he won’t be making any appearances (and he’s certainly worthy of taking on the entire Justice League, if for no other reason than everyone other than Batman would vastly underestimate him). So is he in the movie? Here’s what we know.
Jared Leto flew out to London. Justice League is currently filming in London. That of course could be chalked up as purely coincidental, people travel to London all the time. But what is interesting about this is that Jared was only in London for a day. London is a long, long flight and it wouldn’t be worth it to only be there for a day unless you were doing it for something very important and specific (and possibly hush hush so do it quickly and get in and out). So, the odds are very good that he filmed a very quick scene for Justice League for his brief time in London.

So what role could Joker possibly be playing in Justice League? I seriously doubt that he has any ties to Steppenwolf or Darkseid, but there’s still a number of possibilities. If Steppenwolf and his minions are causing chaos and mayhem, maybe Joker takes advantage of the chaos to escape, thus setting him up to face Batman in the eventual Batman solo movie. Though I’d rather see a new villain in the Batman solo film (not necessarily a “new” villain, just one we haven’t already seen on the big screen several times). Of course, if true this could add to fears that much like Batman v Superman, Justice League will be too bloated with setting up future movies to actually be a good stand alone film. Justice League is currently filming and is expected to open in theaters November 17th 2017.
