Joker: Folie à Deux: trailer for Joaquin Phoenix and Lady Gaga musical sequel released


The sequel sees Phoenix’s Arthur Fleck in Arkham Asylum, and Lady Gaga as Harley Quinn, who is initially a psychiatrist assigned to treat him

The sequel sees Phoenix return as Arthur Fleck, the titular aspiring standup comedian turned villain, and Lady Gaga as Dr. Harleen Quinzel, a psychiatrist assigned to treat Fleck at Arkham Asylum, who falls in love with him and becomes his accomplice Harley Quinn. Joker: Folie à Deux also stars Zazie Beetz, Brendan Gleeson, Steve Coogan and Catherine Keener and is directed by Joker director Todd Phillips, who originally said the first film was “always pitched it as one movie” but would be interested in making more if Phoenix was involved. Phoenix, who won his first Oscar for his performance as Fleck, has been enthusiastic about the role, telling Rolling Stone: “I can’t stop thinking about it... if there’s something else we can do with Joker that might be interesting”, adding that he believed there were “endless … possibilities of where we can go with the character.”
