Lady Gaga Pledges Devotion to Joaquin Phoenix in New ‘Joker 2’ Clip


In a new 'Joker: Folie à Deux' clip, Lady Gaga's Harley Quinn pays Joaquin Phoenix's Joker a visit in the psych ward.

It finds Arthur spending his time at Arkham, a psych ward, while awaiting trial following his savage killing of talk show host Murray Franklin (Robert De Niro). During a Venice Film Festival press conference for the Joker sequel, Phoenix revealed that he lost about 50 pounds to play the titular role, sticking to a diet of lettuce and steamed vegetables, Variety reported. Phoenix didn’t delve into the specifics of his eating habits, but did note that dieting “felt a bit more complicated,” because Joker: Folie à Deux is more or less a jukebox musical.
