Deadline is reporting that Jared Leto is lining up his first post-Suicide Squad role, with the Oscar-winning signing on to star in the action thriller The Outsider.
Directed by Martin Zandevliet (Land of Mine) and written by Andrew Baldwin (Bastille Day), the film “tells the story of an imprisoned American soldier (Leto) who is released with the help of his yakuza cellmate. Now free, he sets out to earn their respect and repay his debt while navigating the dangerous criminal underworld.”
Leto will next be seen as The Joker in Warner Bros.’ DC supervillain ensemble Suicide Squad, which is out in August.
