Extras from Coringa 2 reported poor working conditions with a ban on breaks for hydration
extras from Joker 2: Folie à Deuxfiled a complaint with the Hollywood Actors Union (SAG) for poor working conditions on set. The production of the feature film would have violated the right of employees to take breaks to drink water and go to the bathroom, according to the TMZ (via Omelet).
According to one of the reports, a worker had to discuss with the assistant director about the urgency of going to the bathroom while the cameras were being set up. After returning to the set, the extra took a glass of water and heard the following sentence: “Why are you drinking water? So you need to go to the bathroom again?”
Another assistant director reportedly claimed, “I’ve never needed to go to the bathroom so much. What are they doing there? Because they’re definitely not using the bathroom.” According to the publication’s sources, work continued for about two uninterrupted hours,
The syndicate launched an investigation, and the production of Joker 2 cooperated. Filming, which began in December of last year, will continue, but with monitoring by the SAG.
The film is scheduled to premiere in 2024. In addition to the return of joaquin phoenix in the lead role, production of A.D will have Lady Gaga and direction of Todd Phillips. Long should bring musical elements, but little information about the plot was revealed.
