The Joker is taking over Yonge Street tonight for filming of the upcoming supervillain movie Suicide Squad.
Of course the city is asking "where's Batman when you need him?"
Yonge will be shut down Tuesday evening from 7pm to 6am between Queen and College while crews shoot a high speed action scene.
Toronto is a popular place for Hollywood directors, but Suicide Squad is one of the few films that has managed to shut down so many of the city's iconic locations. A helicopter crash and train scenes previously shut down the Financial District and parts of Union Station.
The movie "is one of the largest, if not, the largest film ever shot in Toronto," Toronto Film Commissioner Zaib Shaik told CBC.
The movie stars Jared Leto as the Joker and Margo Robbie as his psychotic sidekick Harley Quinn. It is due out in treatres for the Summer of 2016.
