Joker 2: The Release Date Of The Sequel With Joaquin Phoenix Out Now
Joker 2 Release Date: Joker is certainly one of the most extraordinary cinematographic works of recent years: the fine comic, conceived by Todd Phillips (The Hangover, Trafficanti) has reinterpreted one of the key figures of DC, or Joker, the nemesis par excellence of the Bat Man. The realization reinvents the origins of this character who for the occasion is a mentally ill-named Arthur Fleck (played by a masterful Joaquin Phoenix). The title was not only a huge economic success at the box office, but it was also highly praised by critics who especially praised Phoenix’s acting performance. Despite this, the news of the creation of a sequel still took the public by surprise.
Joker 2 Release Date and Star Cast
Joker 2 again sees Todd Phillips directing and writing with Joaquin Phoenix who will be accompanied, in a completely unexpected way, by Lady Gaga who will embody a part still shrouded in mystery, according to some Harley Quinn, the lover of the Joker who in the comics is a psychiatrist who tried to study him. Well, until now we knew very little about the product, and finally, thanks to Variety, we discovered the launch date of the realization. The film will see light, at least in the United States, on October 4, 2024, exactly five years after the arrival of the first film. It is not yet clear when the feature will arrive in our country.
We remind you that Joker was produced by Warner Bros. Pictures, Village Roadshow Pictures, Joint Effort, BRON Studios, Creative Wealth Media Finance, DC Comics, DC Entertainment and executive produced by Michael E. Uslan, Walter Hamada, Aaron L. Gilbert, Joseph Garner, Richard Baratta, Bruce Berman. The cast, on the other hand, also saw the participation of Robert De Niro in the role of Murray Franklin, Zazie Beetz who plays Sophie Dumond, Frances Conroy as Penny Fleck and many more.
Joker 2, the sequel to the acclaimed film starring Joaquin Phoenix, finally has an official release date, October 4, 2024. Audiences will find Phoenix as the famous DC villain, an interpretation that two years ago wowed audiences and critics alike, allowing the American actor to win the Oscar for best leading actor. Todd Phillips’ film grossed over $ 1 billion at the worldwide box office. Joker 2 will be based on a co-written script by Todd Phillips and Scott Silver. Phillips also revealed on social media the official title of the new project, Joker: Folie à deux, thus referring to a medical term for an identical or similar mental condition affecting two or more individuals, usually members of the same family.
There was therefore talk of a negotiation to get Lady Gaga in the cast of Joker 2 and make her become the interpreter of Harley Quinn. In this case, the film would find space for the toxic relationship between her and the protagonist, born when Joker meets Quinn at the Arkham Asylum psychiatric institution, where the two fall in love with her and she becomes her shoulder and accomplice. Recall that Phillips has already produced A Star Is Born, the 2018 remake starring Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga herself. In total, the first Joker film garnered eleven Academy Award nominations, including Best Picture and Best Non-Original Screenplay. In the end, in addition to the statuette that went to Phoenix, the film was also awarded for the best soundtrack (to Hildur Guðnadóttir).
