Unexpected: Todd Phillips surprised fans with new photos from "Joker 2"
Joaquin Phoenix and Lady Gaga are one of the most anticipated actors in 2024!
Christmas brought a pleasant surprise for DC fans, fans of Todd Phillips and his version of the "Joker". The director published on social networks new photos from the filming of the sequel, officially titled "Joker: Folie à Deux". In these photos, we can see the main stars of the film, which are, of course, Joaquin Phoenix, who reprises the role from the first film, and Lady Gaga, who was in Harvey Quinn's role.
"Wishing everyone a happy holiday season and a wonderful new year," Phillips posted on social media and added two photos.

What's particularly interesting about the sequel is that it's a musical. This significantly differentiates it in tone from the first film, as the Joker had a dark, gritty, and almost realistic tone. But since Gaga is a famous singer and actress, who also won an Oscar for best original song for the film "A Star Is Born", she was the perfect choice for the lead role alongside Phoenix.
Phoenix therefore reprises his role from the hit film that earned a billion dollars worldwide and brought him the Oscar for Best Actor in 2020. For this role, he was praised by critics and viewers around the world. The plot of the new Joker is still secret, and the first teaser trailer has been eagerly awaited ever since Phillips announced in April that filming was over and they switched to editing.
Along with Phoenix and Gaga, it is known that Catherine Keener, Brendan Gleeson, and Zazie Beetz also star and the film is part of DC Elseworlds - that is, it is not part of the same world that Peter Safran and James Gunn have been working on since they took over the leadership of DC Studios.
"Joker: Folie à Deux" is expected in theaters on October 4, 2024, exactly five years after the premiere of the first film.
NEW: The new era of the "Doctor Who" series is presented with a new trailer!
