Obligatory Jenny Nicholson Tweet
Why are we still paying Jared Leto to do things, I thought we learned our lesson about that

True but look, you gotta hand it to him, his band is also bad
-
TBF, if he wasn't a shitty person then looking weird would absolutely be an asset
-
Heavy sigh.
-
Almost lost it when I saw him in Fortnite
-
It's funny that the only two movies where people talk nicely about him are the ones where he got beat up (Fight Club) or went through hell (Requiem for a Dream).
-
He's the only actor they can afford šThose poor poor studios have been made so broke by those eeeeeeeeevil artists asking to be payed a living wage so all they can get is Jared Letdown...

We gotta get Jenny into the Bluesky sphere.

Heās a cheap name.
Everything about tron 3 was āwe have a contract, make sure to fulfill it as cheap as possibleā

Jared Leto is one of the few times I believe in the "X is an industry plant" stories
-
I didn't even know he was accused of anything (unsavoury? abusive? criminal?), but I think he
- sucks for any role other than moping &
- even if he didn't, would be totally wrong for the Tron franchise where dirty, greasy, lanky hair does NOT come across as anything close to the Tron aesthetic.

We pay Jared Leto because Jordan Catalano.
-
Disney: lets Tron flop
Disney: okay lets try again
Disney: hires a pedophile as the staring role
-
He just has the name of a celebrity. People recognize it. The name is iconic. They hear it and they're like yeah, I've heard that name before. Unforgettable.

You can also say that about James Woods. -Looks at Seth McFarlane-

So Jared Leto actually buys himself onto projects as a producer. I did a deep dive on this once.
Since he has his own money from fashion and being in a band. He literally says "I will give you a few million dollars to let me on the project and give me a cut of the profits".

This kind of reminds me of James Cordon. Every story Iāve heard about what heās like irl is about him being an absolute asshole, but on the screen heās also incredibly annoying and unfunny.
-
I understand why David Finch made Edward Norton destroy his face in Fight Club.
-
one of my coworkers called him the Human NFT
-
Jared must know how Ezra Miller feels by now...
-
Go look at this one too
-
He's the worst thing in Bladerunner 2049 but at least then he was playing an abusive sociopath, so it wasn't too much of a stretch for him.
