Joker 2 Is More And More Reality: The Latest Important Updates On The Film With Joaquin Phoenix
It seems that director Todd Phillips is very close to making Joker 2, the long-awaited sequel to the acclaimed film starring Joaquin Phoenix. Arriving in theaters in 2019, the film showed the public the willingness of Warner Bros. and DC Films to depart from a strictly shared narrative, leaving ample room for the creativity of director Todd Phillips. The film was a huge commercial, critical, and audience success and earned over $1 billion worldwide, and became a major contender for the Oscars, with Phoenix taking home the Oscar for Best Actor.
Joker 2: There Are Important Updates On The Start Of Production
Unsurprisingly, Joker’s success prompted Warner Bros. to announce a sequel. Development on Joker 2 began in late 2019 when it was reported that director Todd Phillips and co-writer Scott Silver had entered into talks with the two studios involved in the first film. There haven’t been many updates since then, and Joaquin Phoenix himself said he wasn’t sure there would be another movie. The fate of the Joker and many other DC films was recently questioned following the merger of Warner Bros. with Discovery.
According to a new Puck News report, it appears that Joker 2 has made a lot of progress lately. An article by Matthew Belloni mentions that Todd Phillips is getting closer to starting work on the sequel. Since he is co-writing the script reference may be made to the fact that the draft is finally completed. Recall that Warner Bros. has yet to officially announce the sequel.
