Adam Beach, who plays Slipknot in David Ayer’s Suicide Squad, already has some interesting stories about his co-star Jared Leto (Dallas Buyers Club). Apparently, the Oscar-winning actor has submerged himself so thoroughly intoThe Joker role he is sending insane gifts to his fellow cast members.

“He sent [Margot Robbie] a nice love letter with a black box with a rat in itโa live rat,” Adam Beach told EOnline at the premiere of Joe Dirt 2: Beautiful Loser. “It was beautiful. Then he sent bullets to Will [Smith] with a letter.”
Besides the rat and bullets, Leto sent a video to the entire cast that included a “dead hog.” “Basically, what he said was, ‘Guys, I can’t be there but I want you to know I’m doing my work as hard as you guys,’” Beach said. “The video he showed is in character. It blew our minds away. Then we realized that day, this is real.”
Then Beach was asked about the first time he saw Leto as The Joker. “He encompasses this beautiful man and he shows it in, ‘Hello, how are you?,’ but in an instant, he goes to psychotic behavior where you’re in fear,” Beach recalled. “But you love him because he has both of those genuine sides.”
Suicide Squad is set to be released August 5, 2016.
