insiders question whether the self-styled boundary-pushing A-lister can still be counted on to carry a franchise vehicle to the bank.

See this is the problem. Insiders still thought Jared Leto was a good pick.

But.... Why? The only role I can remember him ever being decent in was fight club and American psycho, and that's mainly because it was enjoyable to watch Jared Leto get his shit rocked. Every movie I can think of that he's been in a lead role has bombed.

Suicide squad? Giant turd Morbius? So bad it became a meme Tron? Apparently awful, I'm not gonna watch it 30 seconds to mars? First album was okay, maybe the rest of their music would be better if he'd stop trying to fuck 15 year olds backstage.

He was good in House of Guuci. I think he should stick to minor roles or tertiary characters.
