When Jared Leto wasn't playing Pup Quiz with Jimmy Fallon on his visit to The Tonight Show, he was sharing a gift from The Joker and chatting about the character who will appear in the new Suicide Squad film releasing this week.
As Leto made his way to the stage and joined Fallon, Fallon questioned what he had with him.
Leto told Fallon that The Joker is a big giver of gifts and he had something for him.
Fallon said he had heard and read about things, probably referring to the gifts that the Suicide Squad cast received from Leto, but the fans urged him to open the black box with a red bow on top.
Fallon said it was hard to open the box but when he finally did, inside was a little baby snake and a note from Mr. J. The note read, "Dear sweet Jimmy enjoy my snake.
It's long and skinny and easy to take." That's a little raunchy humor from Mr. J for ya.
Leto and Fallon couldn't stop laughing after reading the note. He teased Fallon with the snake before they finally put the little guy back in the box.
During his visit, Leto also explained why he believed The Joker is nothing more but a misunderstood sweetheart. Leto said that on-set, everyone called him Mr. J and underneath it all, he's kind of a sweetheart.
He shared some of the reactions he had when people who did not know he was in character came up to meet him. As for the film, Leto said it is pure and total chaos and insanity.
He also stated that it is the most fun you'll ever have in a movie.
So, if you weren't already excited for the release this week, Leto is giving you a lot more to be excited about. Fallon also shared a clip of The Joker introducing Harley Quinn to her new self.
You can watch Leto give Fallon and gift from The Joker and more in the videos below. Suicide Squad hits theaters on Friday, August 5.
