Jared Leto is known for diving deep into the characters he plays, whether they're a blood-sucking Marvel anti-hero, a struggling addict, or a fashion designer marginalized by his own family.

"No, it's an interesting question because it did pose a pretty difficult challenge for me. In some ways, it's easier when you have a lot to grab a hold of, and I am used to exploring, kind of, some of the more colorful aspects of character. Ares is all about efficiency; I think about him as, like, a stoic samurai warrior. You know, not a wasted movement?
