What is the Release Date of Joker 2?

On October 4, 2024, The Joker 2 will be released. The award-winning original film's production staff is anticipated to return for the sequel.

Joaquin Phoenix is scheduled to return as Arthur Fleck, the Clown Prince of Crime, and Todd Phillips has been working on the script, dubbed Folie A Deux.

Cast: Who Will Be in It?

As Arthur Fleck/Joker, Joaquin Phoenix will return. In an interview with Peter Travers prior to the premiere of the first movie, he had previously mentioned that there was more to the character that he would like to explore.

According to some rumors, the Clown Prince of Crime may have located his princess. In August 2022, it was stated that Lady Gaga was indeed in negotiations to play Harley Quinn and that Zazie Beetz will be returning as Sophie Dumond.

Along with Jacob Lofland, Catherine Keener, and another unnamed actor, Brendan Gleeson, has also been added to the cast. Although it may be some time before Warner Bros. makes any casting announcements, it's currently unknown who else will appear in Joker 2. Stay seated!

The Plot: Expected Storyline of Joker 2

Okay, so here is when things will really start to heat up. Online fan conjecture concerning the meaning of the title Folie à Deux in reference to the Joker and who might be joining him in the sequel is already prevalent, with many speculating Harley Quinn may make an appearance.

Its meaning can be interpreted in a few different ways. As was already established, the term itself refers to “a syndrome in which two closely related mentally ill individuals have the same delusional views.”

Because of their attempts to change Gotham for the better and worse, one may contend that Batman and the Joker both possess the same kind of “delusional beliefs.” The Dark Knight won't likely appear in Joker 2, though, as the first movie features a very young Bruce Wayne (Dante Pereira-Olson).

It's also possible—and more likely—that it will bring Dr. Harleen Quinzel from this world, who would probably fall for Fleck's Joker and help him gain further notoriety in Gotham. Harley's joyful and charismatic personality might not match with this grim setting, despite the fact that they are a team and this would absolutely go with the title.

But after many, many years, we have a third concept that might be considerably more intriguing and would satisfy fans… Could Willem Dafoe's character portray the Joker again in Joker 2? No, we didn't come up with the concept on the spot.

The renowned actor previously admitted that he is fully aware of how the internet is clamoring for him to put on the clown make-up before sharing that he has his own vision for how a fake Joker may contend with Phoenix's portrayal.

Dafoe vs. Phoenix: Dawn of the Clown may perhaps be in the horizon, who knows. The movie may be a musical, if that wasn't bizarre enough already. Online rumors have suggested that the movie is set in the hallways of Arkham Asylum.

Is There Any Official Trailer of Joker 2?

A trailer for Joker 2 is still pending. At the time, Todd Phillips‘ Instagram post is the only way we can currently see the movie. The director revealed the information by sharing a picture of the script's front cover, which is the same red color as the clown's outfit from the movie's climax.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Are Joker's IMDB Ratings?

The Joker has an 8.4/10 rating on IMDB.

Is Batman Played by Robert Pattinson in Joker 2?

At this point, it is unclear whether Batman will be a part of Joker: Folie à Deux. Although the Todd Phillips series is thought of as a prologue to the plot of The Dark Knight, the first movie used comic book themes sparingly and tried to take it in a setting as un-Batman-like as possible.
