Suicide Squad director David Ayer has revealed another image from his 2016 DC supervillain team-up, which offers a fresh look at a deleted scene from the movie’s third act featuring The Joker (Jared Leto) holding a gun to Harley Quinn’s (Margot Robbie) head.
As previously revealed by Ayer, the original plan for The Joker would have seen him striking a deal with The Enchantress after his helicopter crash, allowing him to take Harley home and become the ‘King of Gotham’, only for Harley to refuse to betray her new buddies in Task Force X.

It feels good to be bad…Assemble a team of the world’s most dangerous, incarcerated Super Villains, provide them with the most powerful arsenal at the government’s disposal, and send them off on a mission to defeat an enigmatic, insuperable entity. U.S. intelligence officer Amanda Waller has determined only a secretly convened group of disparate, despicable individuals with next to nothing to lose will do. However, once they realize they weren’t picked to succeed but chosen for their patent culpability when they inevitably fail, will the Suicide Squad resolve to die trying, or decide it’s every man for himself?
