There are plenty of adjustments happening behind the scenes at Warner Bros and DC Studios. Motion pictures like Batgirl have been canceled, and tasks like Marvel Girl 3 that had been within the early levels of improvement have reportedly been shut down.
However for the upcoming Joker sequel, Joker: Folie à Deux, it’s full velocity forward. I assume when a film makes $1 billion and wins a pair Academy Awards in opposition to a finances of lower than $100 million, you’re gonna make a sequel irrespective of who’s in cost or what their plans are.
Within the case of Folie à Deux, each director Todd Phillips and star Joaquin Phoenix are again, joined by Woman Gaga as a brand new Harley Quinn to Phoenix’s Joker. As revealed by Phillips on Instagram, manufacturing on the movie — which isn’t due out for nearly two years — is formally underway. He shared a primary take a look at the brand new movie, which exhibits a gaunt Phoenix getting shaved. You gotta love the colourful, pop artwork world of DC Comics, am I proper?
From what has leaked within the press to date, Joker: Folie à Deux flies within the face of nearly the whole lot new DC Studios co-CEOs James Gunn and Peter Safran need to do. Their said plan is to make one large, cohesive fictional universes that crosses between motion pictures, TV, and video games. Joker, which is R-rated, is about in a separate actuality from every other DC film thus far; its Bruce Wayne wasn’t Robert Pattinson or Ben Affleck or Michael Keaton, however slightly child. And now they’re including a Harley Quinn to the combination who isn’t Margot Robbie. Additionally, the movie is meant to be a musical!
However, once more, the success of Joker was doubtless too overwhelming to disclaim. Perhaps they’ll construct a universe round Joker; or perhaps they’ll make it the one exception to their rule of interconnectedness.
Joker: Folie à Deux is scheduled to open in theaters on October 4, 2024.
