From director Joachim Rønning's Instagram account.
Ok, but nothing about this movie will ever be interesting, the simple fact that they've chosen Jared Letho as the main character, for him to even have any part of it has ruined any positive view I have of anyone else involved. It doesn't matter if he's perfect for the role, it's never acceptable to ignore all the bad shit someone has done.
Did he hurt someone? Or do you mean the 'bad shit' is starring as a mediocre Joker and then Morbius? I briefly browsed through his biography on wikipedia and it seems I missed something important if you are so against him. For me, it seems like he is framed to be a main star for B-rated movies these companies didn't care about anyway. I don't think he deserves any sort of a strong opinion or remembering his name if you aren't a 30s2M fan.
You should look up his cult! I'm being serious, the guy has a cult. Here are the first two articles I found about it. Add that to the fact that he's the worst part of basically every movie he's in and he did shit like mail used condoms to his costars on Suicide Squad in the name of "method acting" and I feel like the general disgust with him being the main character in any movie, particularly one someone would otherwise be interested in is warranted.
Hands down, he's a last person I though of starting a cult, but here we are. I take my words back.
