Joaquin Phoenix Says ‘Joker: Folie À Deux’ Co-Star Lady Gaga Was “Spitting Up Coffee The First Time I Sang”


Joaquin Phoenix is talking about filming Joker: Folie à Deux and his co-star Lady Gaga's reaction when she heard him sing.

Phoenix is reprising his role as Arthur Fleck in the Todd Phillips musical sequel about the DC Comics villain, The Joker. “I do seem to remember her spitting up coffee the first time I sang, so that felt good, that was exciting and made me feel confident,” Phoenix jokingly said in an interview with Empire. Gaga, who joins the sequel in the role of Joker’s love interest Harley Quinn, “was always very encouraging,” Phoenix says, recalling that the singer told him, “Go with what you feel, it’s fine.”
