  • So let me ask you what dangerous thing you're up to

  • now because the last time you were here, which is a while ago by the way,

  • you were jumping off boats, you were climbing mountains.

  • >> Yes.

  • >> We have a- >> [APPLAUSE]

  • >> You couldn't see how high that was,

  • he was on a boat that was like three stories tall and

  • that looks very dangerous like you could hit the, yeah look how high that is.

  • I can't believe you jumped from up there.

  • And then those rocks that, it was like, that's really close.

  • How did you- >> Look at the form though, the form.

  • >> [LAUGH] >> [LAUGH] I assume you cleared those

  • rocks.

  • >> Yeah, barely.

  • >> Now look at that.

  • >> This was actually yesterday.

  • >> No it was not.

  • >> No, it was the day before yesterday.

  • >> Where?

  • >> It was in Yosemite.

  • And I was climbing called the East Buttress of El Cap.

  • >> Yes. >> [LAUGH]

  • >> It's true, it's not a joke.

  • >> How tall is the East Butt, that's tall.

  • >> Yeah. >> You're pretty high up there.

  • >> Yeah. I was with a couple of guys who are some

  • of the best climbers in the world, it's a really incredible thing to do.

  • >> Yeah, I bet, to go with climbers like that.

  • Now that onesie that you're wearing right there.

  • I saw a picture of that.

  • And- >> [APPLAUSE]

  • >> So you don't blend in?

  • [APPLAUSE] >> Why the applause for my onesie.

  • >> The applause is because it's very cool.

  • >> [LAUGH] >> I think,

  • I don't know why they applauded.

  • >> [LAUGH] >> I think it's cuz it's whatever you're

  • wearing, it's adorable.

  • >> If I do wear that I make sure it's like a thousand miles from anyone to not offend

  • anyone's, you know, sensibilities so.

  • >> No that's, where was that?

  • >> That was in Joshua Tree.

  • >> Okay.

  • And so you climb in a onesie usually?

  • >> [LAUGH] >> No, no, usually not but

  • that was a very special day in the desert.

  • [LAUGH] >> [LAUGH]

  • >> I think we all know what that means.

  • >> [LAUGH] >> That's when something like that is

  • appropriate.

  • >> [LAUGH] >> Yeah.

  • >> So let's talk about Suicide Squad.

  • Congratulations, what another great choice to do this movie, it sounds really cool.

  • Tell everybody what it's about.

  • >> Suicide Squad is about a bunch of homicidal maniacs having a really

  • good time.

  • >> [LAUGHING] >> Yeah.

  • >> Basically, just your regular popcorn movie.

  • But I got the call and was invited to play The Joker,

  • which was terrifying and exciting and an honor.

  • Yeah, look at that handsome man.

  • >> Look at that.

  • >> And it was really the most fun I've ever had on a film in my life.

  • >> Really? >> Yeah.

  • I had a blast.

  • It was a real honor to get asked to play the part and

  • these characters are so special to people and I have a lot of respect for that.

  • It was just a really, really great opportunity.

  • >> And you always, you really go for it.

  • When you take on a role, you transform physically.

  • So you cut your hair really, really short.

  • Cuz your hair was long, it had gotten really long.

  • >> Yeah. >> Takes a long time to get that long, and

  • then you say, I'm just cutting it off.

  • And then you dyed it green?

  • And then you wore braces.

  • >> [LAUGH] >> And

  • you shaved your eyebrows, look at that.

  • >> Yeah, I think that I'm probably the only actor in Hollywood who shaved their

  • eyebrows and wore lipstick back to back in two films.

  • [LAUGH] >> Yeah, from Dallas Buyers Club.

  • >> Dallas Buyers Club yeah.

  • >> So, when they have to have your eyebrows,

  • have you noticed that they grew back thicker?

  • >> Well, these are prosthetics.

  • >> No. They actually they started to grow back

  • slower and slower.

  • So, I got a little scared but they did come back and

  • it's gonna be strange to make a film with eyebrows.

  • >> With eyebrows again?

  • >> Yeah.

  • And without lipstick.

  • I'm going to feel kind of naked.

  • >> [LAUGH] It'll be very strange for you.

  • >> [APPLAUSE] >> I know how picky you are when it comes

  • to acting because you love making music and your band is amazing.

  • So this must have been really cool to get away from music for a little while, but

  • when are we going to hear new music?

  • >> I'm actually,

  • I was in the studio today and I'm going back to the studio right after this.

  • We're working on a new album and we hope it's going to be out really, really soon.

  • >> And then you'll come her and play it for us?

  • >> I would absolutely love to.

  • >> [APPLAUSE] >> Suicide Squad opens in theaters

  • August 5th.

  • We'll be right back, Jared Leto.

So let me ask you what dangerous thing you're up to
