First leak from Joker flick is him slapping Harley Quinn

It's an actual unauthorized leak, too, from the set. You know, just in case you were thinking that the movie's PR team would be as profoundly stupid as the people making this movie. Can't wait to buy the bobblehead doll at Spencer Gifts!

More extensive footage was on Youtube; Kotaku reports that it has been taken down after a copyright claim by Warner Brothers, which suggests that it is real.

The clip above—from what looks like surreptitiously shot video—purports to be from the set of David Ayer’s upcoming Suicide Squad movie, which assembles a bunch of DC Comics villains for a big black ops mission . There’s no real audio but you can see Margot Robbie’s Harley Quinn and Jared Leto’s Joker talking, kissing and, um, not-kissing. At one point, the Joker pulls out a gun and holds it to his head. The slap in the video seems to hint that the dysfunctional nature of these two villains’ romance will be intact in the movie.
