Joker: Folie à Deux – What You Need To Know

When Joker came out in 2019, I held mixed opinions; I liked the film but didn’t feel it fitted in with the DCEU. In short, it could have been about a random psychopath and the city just happened to be called Gotham. Still, if it is as good as the original I’m ready to forgive it anything!

What is Joker: Folie à Deux?

While Joker was originally intended as a stand alone feature there were plans for DC Black with darker and more experimental features to follow. However, initial rumours seem to suggest that we have an exceptionally experimental film in the pipeline…

Cast

So far we only have Joaquin Phoenix (let’s face it, he won an Oscar so he’s GOT to come back!) and Lady Gaga confirmed as Joker and Harley Quinn. Willem Dafoe expressed interest in joining the cast back in January 2022 but, as yet, nothing is confirmed either way.

Characters, So Far, In Joker: Folie à Deux

As I said earlier, only two roles have been cast, so this may need to be revisited when we know more.

One of the most useful apps I’ve ever come across. I’ve used it for years and recommended it to all my friends. Even if I’m not the type to have to pee during movies often, being able to pull up the app and pass my phone to my mom/friend/grandma so that they know when to go to the bathroom has been invaluable. Because then I don’t have to summarize anything when they get back!!

Joker: Folie à Deux’s Backstory

There wasn’t a sequel planned when Joker was made, so it’s hard to say what you need to know going in. What I would say is go and see the original again just because it was a good film!

Sequels?

Hmmm…hard to say.  If it sells bazillions of tickets then probably. But there is also DC Black to look out for.
