About Joker: Folie à Deux Movie:
Joker: Folie à Deux is an upcoming American musical thriller film directed by Todd Phillips, who co-wrote it with Scott Silver. It is slated to be a sequel to the 2019 film Joker. Joaquin Phoenix reprises his role as the DC Comics character the Joker, and Lady Gaga plays Harley Quinn. Zazie Beetz also reprises her role from the first film.
The film’s working title is “Folie a Deux,” which means “Madness for Two” in French. This initially led to speculation about Harley Quinn’s appearance in the film, which was shortly thereafter confirmed.
A sequel officially entered development in June 2022. Principal photography began on December 10, 2022. Filming took place in Los Angeles, New York, and Cedar Grove, New Jersey. Filming officially wrapped on April 5, 2023. It is shot partially with IMAX-certified digital cameras.
Joker: Folie à Deux will be Joaquin Phoenix’s first sequel.
A teaser trailer for the film was released on April 10, 2024, while Warner Bros. screened a presentation at the 2024 CinemaCon, being promoted by Phillips. It features Sammy Davis Jr. and Tom Jones’ cover of the song “What the World Needs Now Is Love” (1965). The trailer gained 167 million views in its first 24 hours, being Warner Bros.’ biggest trailer premiere at the time, having surpassed that of the first trailer for Barbie (2023).
Joker: Folie à Deux is scheduled to be released in the United States on October 4, 2024, by Warner Bros. Pictures.
