Yes, you read well. It looks like we could go from a dark, suspenseful, psychological thriller movie to… a musical? Joker 2 is going to surprise us all. Not only with its possible songs, but with a Harley Quinn that would be played by Lady Gaga herself.
A week ago we found out that Joker 2 was running along with Todd Phillips as director again already joaquin phoenix What Arthur Fleck. Although the actor would not yet be 100% in the project (the deal is not closed), that is not it is What catches our attention and worries us? But there is a chance that this sequel will be a musical and that it will have Lady Gaga What harley quinn.
Joker 2 it was confirmed thanks to a photo of the film’s script that he shared Philipswhere we can read the possible title of the delivery: Joker: Folie a Deux. This translates to madness of two and is a disorder characterized by the presence of psychotic symptoms in two or more people. Also, you can see that the script was written by himself. Philips beside Scott Silverwho returns to take the same position he had in the first installment of the joker (2019).
According to THR, the renowned singer Lady Gaga is in early talks to star alongside joaquin phoenix Joker 2. Details about her character are being kept under wraps, but considering the title of the film and her toxic and abusive relationship joker with harley quinn, Everything indicates that he would play that character.
harley quinn is the psychiatrist Joker in the Arkham Asylum. She falls in love with him and becomes his partner and partner in crime. It is not yet clear if Todd Phillips and company will include other characters from DC or if they are acting on their own, as they did in the first movie of joker. In this case, the Quinn of Gaga would exist in a universe of DC different from the harley quinn of margot robbiewhom we have already seen in several films.
But that is not what left many with their mouths open. The aforementioned medium also reports that Joker 2 it could be a musical. This would be a very big change. Let’s remember that the first film is very dark, it has a lot of suspense and a psychological thriller and going from all that to a musical is hard to believe and even harder to imagine.
Let’s keep in mind that Todd Phillips previously produced A Star Is Born (2018), the film starring Lady Gaga Y Bradley Cooper (who was also the producer of joker). So it is not impossible that we see a Joker 2 as a musical… although it would not stop being strange.
Since neither the genre of the film nor the participation of GagaIt is unknown what angle the sequel might take. Perhaps the film could be a hallucination of one of the protagonists and imagine everything with songs. No idea, there are many possibilities and plenty of time to think.
joker It was a great success for Warner Bros. It was the fourth highest-grossing R-rated film of all time, grossing over $1 billion and earning 11 award nominations. Oscartaking two home: one for phoenix as the best actor and another for the best soundtrack. So we will have to wait to see what it brings us Philips from the hand of joaquin phoenix.
