Lady Gaga's performance in Joker: Folie à Deux opposite Joaquin Phoenix shocks the sequel's casting director - who admits she didn't cast Gaga: 'She's going to blow your mind'
Lady Gaga is set to expand her burgeoning film career even further when she stars opposite Joaquin Phoenix in the sequel Joker: Folie à Deux.
Francine Maisler, who served as the casting director on the Joker sequel, said Gaga — who shot down pregnancy rumors last month — was 'so good' in Folie à Deux during a talk at the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival in the Czech Republic earlier this week, according to Deadline. As their infatuation for each other deepens, Arthur's deranged followers — who witnessed him murder the late-night television host Murray Franklin (Robert De Niro) in the first film — take to the streets in hopes of allowing him to subject Gotham to even more destruction. Phillips has said he was inspired by the design and stories of classic 1970s and '80s crime films, especially Martin Scorsese's masterpieces Taxi Driver (1976) and The King Of Comedy (1982), both of which starred De Niro.
