Does Jared Leto have blackmail on every single studio exec?

They don't see issues with anything he does because they either already do that themselves or want in

No joke, he has a sex cult island. I wouldn't be surprised if movie role offers are an easy way to get to invited to it

I mean, if they want a ready to go excuse for why the movie made no money, sure, this makes sense.

Jared Leto has really become one of Hollywood's most bankable stars. Bankable, as in "like Sam Bankman-Fried," as in "you are going to lose money with this guy."

I guess they're not looking to make sales but insurance money?

I can see why Skeletor would refuse the role.

Skeletor should have a role in the He-Man movie!

Oh, to be played by Leto. NVM.

[โ€“] Flocklesscrow@lemm.ee 2 points 1 month ago

This movie will be awesome if they also have Leto playing Morbius.

Wasn't it that it doesn't actually star he-man? I vaguely remember some dumb culture war shit about it
