(CNN Spanish) — The artist Lady Gaga has released the first picture of the sequel to the movie “Joker” and we can see her and Joaquin Phoenix in their roles.
Last August, Gaga announced that she will be part of the all-star cast of the sequel, which will be called Joker: Folie à Deux, a name given to director Todd Philips, who also directed and co-wrote the first film to be released in June 2019.
Now, Lady Gaga used the exact phrase ‘Folie à Deux’ (‘madness of the two’, in French) to post the first picture of the sequel. According to IMDb, Phoenix will return as Arthur Fleck (aka the Joker) and Gaga will be Harley Quinn.
Recently, DC Studios Co-CEO James Gunn said that the Joker sequel is not within the DC Universe (DCU), but part of something called DC Elseworlds.
Nevertheless, the film arouses high expectations, among other things, because both protagonists are Oscar winners.
Joker: Folie à Deux is scheduled for release on October 4, 2024.
