I think part of this fits well with the "insanity" theme she has been going on with in interviews. But it's still only a potentially made up rumor.
Ooh now that would be a shift in pace for her! she has proven herself so much with her 2 films so it's no doubt everyone is itching to find out what the next role is going to be.
Apparently the script is now ready and the title is Joker 2: Folie a Deux, which hints that either Harley Quinn or Batman has a key role in it. Interesting...
I'd still be here for a Little Shop of Horrors remake - my ultimate film dream for her.
I would love to see her sing in her next movie role. But then I also want her to be the antagonist...
I'd be so here for a villain! It'd have to be the right movie though because her hit ratio at the moment is 100% and we need to keep that momentum up!
Yeah, I don't want her to ruin what she's built by acting in another Machete
Big director names is what she needs to aim for. A Ridley Scott blockbuster is always going to get attention and she gets immortalised in a huge catalogue of films by a well-respected name. Go for Tarantino next I say or del Toro~
Tarantino would be brill!
Tarantino x Gaga would be a DREAM.
Omg ffs I'd be so here for that though ngl~
Hollywood Reporter published an article so there must be something cooking!
https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/joker-2-lady-gaga-joaquin-phoenix-todd-phillips-in-musical-1235154135/
She's in "early talks" for the role apparently!
Quite a lot of attention on social media!
Not sure if "musical" would work here. I mean even if the movie has Gaga, it doesn't have to be musical
Musical... hmm.
It's director Todd Phillips who previously produced A Star Is Born!
A musical? No thank you.
Yeah I can't see this as a musical. Have a theme/credits song sure but not mid movie!
This is everywhere on my social media! Gaga has been trending since the announcement and the memes are too much! This is my favourite:
Oohh
I'm a huge fan of horror movies so very excited!
Kind of, I agree
I want it to be real 🥺🥺
I'm here for HorrorGa
Confirmed omg
I SCREAMED!
She does not let us breathe! One project after another after another. She is so exciting to follow, I can't deal.
I have faith that she'll be perfect in this.
The way she's working with only the most iconic actors of this generation so far: Bradley, Driver and now Phoenix
This is too funny
Yeah, she's picking her roles wisely and we absolutely love to see it.
She really is the new Cher, more focused on acting and Oscars thsn ha albums and singing!!
Not sure jumping on the musical train will help D.C with Joker at all , but we'll see. At lesst they have a huge singer like GaGa to carry the songs...
The way they are promoting Cheek to Cheek with that teaser
That Haus Labs tweet, ffs!
Does the heart on her cheek in the promo confirm she'll be playing Harley?
"It's not a 'La La Land', 'A Star Is Born' type musical at all, and will make all traditional fans of the musical genre vomit and walk out of the theatre. It also won't be the type of music they're expecting from Lady Gaga at all"
— Jordan Ruimy on World of Reel about "Joker 2".
What type of music people expect from Gaga... I mean, she has done it all, from Metallica collabo to Kendrick Lamar feature and Tony Bennett duets
LOVE IT
Literally gives me chills! I do think it's a nod to Joker/Harley too because it's literally days after her announcing it.
i'm already dreading the press tour...
She's so extra when it comes to press tours and I love every single second
I can't WAIT for it. So many memes are born from them
She is going to kill it! (Probably in practice )
Filming begins in December in New York apparently!
According to Variety, she will be paid $10 million for her role in this and the movie will have a budget of roughly $150 million. (Joaquin Phoenix will be paid $20 million for his role).
She's on a level on her own among the popstars who do movies
Oscar-nominee Catherine Keener (Get Out, Percy Jackson, Capote) has landed a major role this apparently.
The stars keep on coming!
Brendan Gleeson and Zazie Beetz are also confirmed even though Warner Bros haven't commented.
Film is being billed as a "psychological horror with musical elements" Definitely getting A Clockwork Orange vibes from that description!
They Will... but Gaga stans will be in heaven! *.*
The fact that this time in 2 years we'll be still in this thread...waiting for the film.
Exactly, if filming is going to start in November/December as reported, I don't get why this movie only drops in two years when the first film was released a year after filming wrapped.
Who's gonna edit it, a turtle or a sloth?
When you put it like that, the wait is crazy! There must be method behind the madness that we're unaware of.
Well, Top Gun: Maverick was released three years after if was filmed and still became one of the biggest movies of all time... I think there's quite a lot of planning and business ventures attached to the Joker project.
Zazie Beetz on the Joker sequel: "I can't say anything, I don't know anything, and I love @LadyGaga."
Mood tbh.
Yep, we love her!
Still TWO YEARS to go, crazy
She's a fan!:
“It makes me so happy because I said from the very beginning that all I want is for Harley Quinn to be one of those characters the way…like Macbeth or Batman always gets passed from great actor to great actor,”
Oh yess bring on the lewks and teasers!!! Cannot wait to see any sneak peeks there possibly will be!
I remember shooting being months away and now it's here in a few weeks! Can't wait to see candid pics and her generally being out and about more
Cannot wait to see some leaks from the set... like anything!!
Costuming too. I fear she is going to serve look after look after look
It's definitely giving Harley tea. Filming for this starts in 2 weeks!
Why Lady Gaga Is Perfect For Joker 2's Harley Quinn Explained By DP
The Director of Photography for Joker: Folie a Deux explains the reason that Lady Gaga will suit the sequel perfectly as Harley Quinn.
Joker: Folie à Deux director of photography explains why Lady Gaga as Harley Quinn will be the perfect match for Joaquin Phoenix's titular character. Todd Phillips' Joker, released in 2019, went on to become one of the year's biggest films, despite courting controversies ahead of its debut. Starring Phoenix as Arthur Fleck, aka the titular Clown Prince of Crime, Joker provided a new take on the DC Comics character with a psychological character study of the classic villain's descent into madness.
Despite functioning well as a singular installment, Joker has now spawned an upcoming sequel, Folie à Deux. News about the sequel has proved that Phillips will continue exploring new possibilities and twists on the character in the next film, which was announced as a musical and will star Lady Gaga as Harley Quinn. The teaser trailer for Joker 2 showed that the movie will lean into Arthur and Harley's romance, possibly showing a new side of the infamous DC pairing. While many were surprised by the choice to cast the popular musician and actor in the film, Gaga's public persona, acting chops, and musical talents make her a strong choice for the role in the eyes of one crew member.
During an appearance on The Hollywood Reporter’s Behind the Screen podcast, the DP for Folie à Deux, Lawrence Sher, explained the reasons that Gaga will shine in the role of Harley. Sher stated that Gaga will "create a similar kind of magic that Joaquin brought," teasing another breakout performance in the franchise. See Sher's full quote below:
“She’s going to be a really cool fit for this movie and will create a similar kind of magic that Joaquin brought by himself. The combination of the two will be exactly what we hope, which is exciting, and we’ll find magic every day on set. Hopefully we’ll also have a bit of madness in there. We like when there is a little bit of chaos.”
Based on Sher's comments, Gaga's iteration of Harley will bring some of the chaos that the character is famous for, while also matching Phoenix's electric energy on-screen. The Joker actor was lauded for his dedication to his performance and even won an Oscar for the role, setting the bar high for his co-star in Folie à Deux. Luckily, Gaga is a formidable on-screen presence in her own right, so it's likely that the pair's scenes together will bring equal parts of intensity and exhilaration. The couple's traditional dynamic in past adaptations has been abusive and toxic, but Phoenix's Joker is less inherently villainous than past versions, with his mental illness and lifelong struggles serving as the catalyst for his crimes. Due to Phoenix's fresh characterization of the comic book villain, his Joker's relationship with Harley will likely take a new route, possibly including a kinder, albeit still twisted, sort of love.
Based on the news that Joker: Folie à Deux will function as a musical and Arthur's hallucinations of the original movie, it's possible that the full film will function as a fantasy sequence, meaning that Gaga's Harley will either match Arthur's perception of reality, be conjured by it, or exist differently outside it, like Zazie Beetz's character in the first film. In contrast to Margot Robbie's version of Harley, Gaga in Joker: Folie à Deux will likely be darker to match the tone of the Phillips films, and more unstable, due to the film's title, which translates to "folly of two," or "shared madness." Though the reception of Gaga's performance as Harley remains to be seen, Joker: Folie à Deux is shaping up to be a wholly unique cinematic experience.

Was filming delayed or has it started? Or is that what it means by production starting end of November?

“Gaga gives it her all. She bares her soul. She eats the scenery. And she’ll sing her lungs out. Prepare for a match made in hell.” - Empire Magazine on Lady Gaga in Joker 2

"Lady Gaga is a powerhouse and an incredible artist, she was able to perform several actions that would normally be attributed to a stunt double on her own, showing off her skill!" - Colby Lemmo (Gaga's stunt double in Joker Folie à Deux)
We love to read the compliments and praise... Bring on the trailer!
OH MY! IT IS REAL
The first teaser for this is rumored to debut at the showings of Dune: Part Two this March.
It's coming!
Hope it's a proper trailer or basically anything more than just a gif.
There's an official TikTok account set up for the film now! @jokermovie
8 months to go!
LOADS of new info today
Laurence Sher says the movie "is not a musical per se, it just has music in it. The music is part of the film and the characters, but I don't know if it's a musical. But yes, there is music."
Todd Phillips revealed that the trailer will be released in April at the earliest.
Three new photos
Omg! Great new content and not too long to wait for the trailer. PERCHED !!
She is reportedly paid $12 million for this, not too shabby!
TRAILER IN A FEW WEEKS WHAT
I really thought the first trailer would either be Valentines Day or premiere on the same day Dune 2 hits cinemas (same studio and main the big Warner Bros film this year) so now I'm curious and interested to see when they'll drop it now.
I really hope we'll get the first trailer soon.
Some info from the test screenings:
"The musical aspect is not presented in a conventional way. They sing but it works in a different pattern. Very risky, but f***ing genius"
"Lady Gaga and Joaquin Phoenix are on the same level in performance"
I'm SO intrigued by the musical aspect of it all. I have no idea how it'll work
Ahhhhhhhhh it's confirmed
Joker: Folie à Deux, featuring Joaquin Phoenix and Lady Gaga, has been given an R rating due to:
- Occasional instances of strong violence
- Frequent use of explicit language
- Depictions of sexuality
- Brief scenes of full nudity
2 million likes for the poster on IG, a smash
The greatest living celebrity? Facts!!
https://www.gq-magazine.co.uk/article/can-lady-gaga-save-joker-2
Whilst I don't think Joker 2 needs "saving" per se, Gaga can obviously help it to be seen as evolved version of the first one and make it potentially a bigger success too than it would be without her.
