The latest hype on the internet surrounds Jared Leto as the the live action Eren Jaeger.

Attack on Titan aired its last episode a few days ago, but fans are still not over it. After Eren Jaeger was portrayed to be a normal protagonist, something changed in him, and he became an anti-hero starting in season 4. Even though it was quite surprising, the fans loved how mature Eren Jaeger became. But they were not sure as to why such a change was made.

By the end of the anime, Hajime Isayama, the creator of Attack on Titan, cleared everybody’s doubt and showed that whatever Eren did was for the sake of his friends and the greater good. The fans are still hung up over the show and want a live-action to happen soon. They have already decided who will play the role of Eren Jaeger in Attack on Titan live-action. It is none other than Jared Leto.

Fans Want Jared Leto as Live Action Eren Jaeger

The live-action genre was something that the anime fandom feared since there were almost no hits in that category. Whatever anime was made into a live-action turned out to be huge flops. But after Netflix’s One Piece Live Action broke the shackles of this cursed genre, more people are getting confident about their favorite anime following the path of One Piece Live Action.

Recently, a fan-made poster of Tom Holland as live-action Naruto created a buzz on the internet, and the fans were ready to see the Spider-Man actor as the Orange Hokage. After Tom Holland, the next in number is Jared Leto, who the fans want to take up the role of live-action Eren Jaeger from Attack on Titan.

The latest talk on the internet is that Jared Leto, with a hair bun, looks exactly like Eren Jaeger. While there is an uncanny resemblance that is hard to ignore, it is only valid for season 4 Eren Jaeger. Previous to that, there is hardly any resemblance. But that does not stop them from wanting the Morbius actor to take up the iconic role.

The fandom went as far as to post similar pictures of the two and point out how close they look. A few of them jokingly said that Jared Leto wanted to be Eren Jaeger so badly and posted a picture of him.

Jared Leto resembles Eren Jaeger post-season 4. It was also pointed out by fans on X (formerly Twitter). While some argue that Jared Leto looks like Eren Jaeger, others point out that Eren Jaeger looks like Jared Leto.

The comments kept on piling up one after another, and the context remained the same. Even though there are undoubtedly a few similar features, it still is a fan rumor. After the fans get crazy over Tom Holland as Naruto, it is time for Jared Leto to get some limelight. But the only catch is he has to share it with Attack on Titan’s Eren Jaeger.
