Rah, rah-ah-ah-ah we have our first look at what could be the biggest blockbuster of the fall as the first teaser for “Joker: Folie à Deux” has dropped! Following the events of “Joker” Joaquin Phoenix reprises his Oscar-Winning role of Arthur Fleck, (who becomes Batman’s arch nemesis, the clown prince of crime, the Joker) being locked up in Arkham Asylum until an unusual meet-cute with a fellow prisoner who’ll become his partner in multiple definitions of the word: Harley Quinn (Lady Gaga). Anticipation for this jukebox musical sequel to the billion dollar box office generating hit from 2019 has been high, especially since Gaga’s casting was announced. While actual details of the plot are scarce, the grim and gritty footage we see here gives us glimpses of what the sequel’s much larger budget ($200 million as compared to $65 million of the first film) is going to bring us. “Joker: Folie à Deux” will bring its act to theatres exactly five years after the original’s on October 4, 2024.
