The 'Joker' sequel trailer delivers as promised

Joaquin Phoenix and Lady Gaga sing and wreck Gotham in a sequel that promises to be even more divisive.

‘Joker’ pitted its fans and detractors against each other. With Joaquin Phoenix’s Oscar-worthy performance as Batman’s nemesis, it was one of 2019’s biggest hits. However, many saw it as a lackey version of Scorsese’s ‘The King of Comedy’, full of obviousness and a disturbing incel edge.

Five years later, ‘Joker: Folie à Deux’, a sequel, aims to satisfy fans while frustrating detractors. It repeats the first installment’s imagery while exploring fantasy and Arthur Fleck’s unbalanced mind. That will require songs.

Like ‘Moulin Rouge’, the film was described a few weeks ago as a “jukebox musical” with all the songs being covers of famous songs. As this trailer’s dialogues, which don’t reveal much about the plot, indicate, music will be an important part of Joker and Harley Quinn’s lives from the moment they meet, and it will shape their worldview.

‘Joker: Folie à Deux’ will hit theaters on October 4, five years after the first film, with a budget that matches the billion dollars raised by its predecessor, making it the first R-rated film to do so. The first production cost 62.5 million dollars; this one costs 200 million.

The anticipated ‘Joker: Folie a Deux’ trailer debuted on July 23, 2024. The sequel, starring Joaquin Phoenix and Lady Gaga, promises to explore Joker and Harley Quinn’s twisted minds.

The highly anticipated ‘Joker: Folie a Deux’ trailer debuted on July 23, 2024. This sequel, starring Oscar-winner Joaquin Phoenix and Lady Gaga, promises to explore the villain and his girlfriend’s twisted minds.

‘Joker: Folie a Deux’ continues the gritty story that captivated audiences and critics in 2019. Recurring actor Joaquin Phoenix plays Arthur Fleck, the failed comedian who becomes the Joker after going mad. Lady Gaga will play Harley Quinn, Joker’s lover and accomplice.

Joker: Folie à Deux, the musical sequel starring Oscar winners Joaquin Phoenix and Lady Gaga, has released its first trailer.

Phoenix reprises his role as Arthur Fleck, the aspiring standup comedian turned villain, and Lady Gaga plays Dr. Harleen Quinzel, a psychiatrist who falls in love with Fleck and becomes Harley Quinn in the sequel.

Named after a psychiatric syndrome in which two people share delusions.

Joker: Folie à Deux, unlike Joker, will be a musical with 15 songs, most of which are covers of pre-existing songs, including Judy Garland’s That’s Entertainment from The Band Wagon. The trailer features 1965’s What the World Needs Now Is Love.

Todd Phillips directed Joker: Folie à Deux, which stars Zazie Beetz, Brendan Gleeson, Steve Coogan, and Catherine Keener. Phillips said the first film was “always pitched it as one movie” but would make more with Phoenix.

Phoenix, who won his first Oscar for his role as Fleck, expressed enthusiasm for the role, saying, “I can’t stop thinking about it… if we can do something else we can do with Joker that might be interesting.” He believes there are endless possibilities for the character.
