Snyder has now added to the excitement by posting a behind-the-scenes photo from the set of the Snyder Cut, offering another glimpse at the Clown Prince of Crime.
The image, shared on Snyder’s Vero account, shows the director capturing a close-up shot of Leto, who poses inJoker’s Knightmare outfit,which was previously seen in the trailer.
