WARNER BROS and DC Comics are being sued by a fan for removing Jared Leto’s Joker scenes that had been shown in Suicide Squad trailers.
The movie fan felt the scenes were false advertising as the DC movie’s trailers featured clips of the Joker that weren’t in the final cut.
The Reddit user claimed he and his lawyer brother will begin legal action against Warner and DC on August 11.
He wrote: “Movie trailers are like food menus, they give you a preview of what your gonna get.
“Suicide Squad trailers showcased several SPECIFIC Joker scenes that I had to pay for the whole movie just so that I can go watch those SPECIFIC SCENES that WB/DC had advertised in their trailers and TV spots.”

He continued: “I drove 300 miles to London to go watch these specific scenes they had explicitly advertised in their TV ads…and they didn't show them to me.
“I wasted a lot of money paying and travelling to go watch this movie because of these specific scenes they had advertised to me...All lies.
“I told the theatre about this unjust act and said I didn't get what I came here to see...can I have my money back.
“They laughed at me and kicked me out. So I'm now taking this to court.”
Leto revealed in a recent interview there’s unseen X-rated footage from Suicide Squad that’s enough for an entire Joker movie.
He said: “There are a lot of scenes that didn’t make it to the final film, hopefully they will see the light of day. Who knows.”
The Joker’s screen time in Suicide Squad amounts to around just 10 minutes of footage.

The suing fan added: “I want my refund, the trauma of being embarrassed as I was being kicked out and people laughing at me for wanting my refund.
“And also the £160 of fuel money I used to drive to London from Scotland.
“If you advertise something...give me what you have advertised. Period. This is becoming a habit with movie studios, showing epic scenes in trailers...but [they are] never shown in the movies. It's unjust.”
