Joker director Todd Phillips confirms DC sequel is happening with Joaquin Phoenix, title reveals

Although Batman’s nemesis the Joker has been played by various actors in films over the decades, in 2019 the Clown Prince of Crime finally achieved cinematic notoriety for himself in Jester. Starring Joaquin Phoenix as Arthur Fleck, the independent DC film ended up grossing over $ 1 billion worldwide. Consequently, although Jester originally meant to be a one-off deal, there has been talk of making a sequel over the years, and now director Todd Phillips has confirmed that joker 2 in fact, it takes place by revealing its title.

take hers instagram account, Todd Phillips shared two images: the first shows the cover of this one Jester sequel and the second by Joaquin Phoenix reading the script. As you will see below, the working title of the film is Joker: Madness for two, the latter French term translates into English as “folie à deux” or “folie à deux”. It is the name of a psychiatric syndrome which refers to the sharing of delusional beliefs and sometimes even hallucinations between two people.

Todd Phillips hasn’t revealed anything else about this film he co-wrote with Scott Silver, but sharing a title like this is more than enough to get your brain flowing. However, here’s a quick reminder: at the end of the first Jester movie, Arthur Fleck, who had fully embraced his clown character, was thrown at Arkham State Hospital, but his influence had already spread to Gotham City. After talk show host Murray Abraham was murdered on live television, protesters disguised as clowns across town rioted and, amidst the chaos, young Bruce Wayne saw his parents killed by one of the troublemakers. now that we know joker 2 is called fuck twothis indicates that one of the people who admired Arthur will follow in his footsteps and become a new Joker.

Assuming that’s really what it is joker 2Sera’s premise sounds very similar to what Willem Dafoe pitched in January about wanting to play a Joker imposter who clashes with Joaquin Phoenix’s Joker. However, there is another point of view to consider: instead of another Joker, what if we meet a different version of Harley Quinn than the one played by Margot Robbie in the DCEU? Harleen Quinzel crossed paths with the Clown Prince of Crime while working as a psychiatrist in Arkham and, after succumbing to her fascination, became her love interest and accomplice. Perhaps fuck two It is in reference to her.

It may take some time before you know exactly what Jester following in the shop, and frankly, fuck two this may not be its final title. However, for those who enjoyed that first movie, it’s another big step forward for this corner of the DC multiverse. This news also comes just days after it was reported that Warner Bros. boss David Zaslav of Discovery had asked Todd Phillips to act as a consultant for upcoming DC movies.
