If you’re going to do a sequel to 2019’s JOKER, you’ve got to do something totally different and unexpected.

I would say that JOKER 2JOKER: FOLIE a DEAUX is the actual title — being a musical co-starring Lady Gaga as Harley Quinn very much would be doing something totally different and unexpected.

Joaquin Phoenix as Arthur Fleck in JOKER

Per THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER, Lady Gaga is in early talks to join the cast of the film as Harley Quinn alongside star Joaquin Phoenix.  The trade also reports that even though director Todd Phillips shared a picture on Instagram of Phoenix reading the script, he has yet to officially join the project.

You can now say that I’m very interested and intrigued by a musical film featuring two notorious comic book villains…Batman characters at that. – Bill “Jett” Ramey

Bill "Jett" Ramey
Bill “Jett” Ramey isn’t just a Batman fan — he’s one of the founding fathers of the online Batman community. As the creator and Editor-in-Chief of Batman-On-Film.com, the original and longest-running Batman news and commentary site, Jett helped carve the very bedrock of modern fan internet press. A lifelong Dark Knight disciple, Jett has spent decades championing filmmaker‑driven Batman stories, cutting through fanboy noise with a Texas‑sized dose of honesty, and keeping the conversation smart, civil, and drama‑free. He’s the BOF Godfather — the guy who was here before the hashtags, before the clickbait, before the algorithms… and he’s still here, still talking Batman, still calling it straight. When he steps out of Gotham, Jett is pure Texas. He bleeds Dallas Cowboys blue, blasts Elvis and rock ’n’ roll, and has a deep appreciation for cold beer, dive bars, and Texas Longhorns football. He works out, he cooks, and he can grill like a man who’s earned the right to say “don’t assume” when he tells you he lives in the great state of Texas. He shares that home with his wife — “Announcer Rachel” — and their dogs: Gracelin the Labradoodle and Presley, a rescue pup named after the King himself.
