According to HollywoodReporterthe actress and singer would thus give the reply to Joaquin Phoenix, who was seen in full reading of the script, despite the fact that he has not yet formalized his return in the skin of the Joker.
According to the title of the film entitled Joker: Madness for two, we can expect it to feature Harley Quinn and Arthur Fleck, the latter having managed to charm the one who was his psychiatrist during his stay at the Arkham Asylum institute. Harley Quinn then becomes the Joker’s lover and accomplice, which takes her far away from the universe in which the Harley Quinn played by Margot Robbie evolves in The Suicide Squad.
It is also unknown if Todd Philipps intends to call on other characters from the DC universe, but according to the HollywoodReporter, everything indicates that the film will be a musical, which helps to explain the choice of Lady Gaga. Not to mention the fact that Phillips produced the film A Star is bornstarring Gaga and Bradley Cooper, himself producer of the Joker.
the Jokerlaunched in October 2019, has amassed more than $1 billion in box office revenue, in addition to garnering 11 Oscar nominations — Joaquin Phoenix was crowned Best Actor while composer Hildur Guonadottir received the Best Actor statuette soundtrack.
