Lady Gaga and Joaquin Phoenix explore their wild side in the psychological thriller, Joker: Folie À Deux, the upcoming DC film which is largely packaged as a musical to the audience. Phoenix reprises his role of Arthur Fleck, whose isolation from society led to a series of disasters in Gotham City in the 2019 original film. Now, this sequel promises to delve deeper into the dark and gritty world of the Clown Prince of Crimes, all while introducing Lady Gaga as Harley Quinn in a way that flips their conventional storyline.

Fans know Harley Quinn aka Harleen Quinzel, was a psychiatrist at first who becomes infatuated with Joker and ultimately takes on her wild persona. Their relationship, widely branded unhealthy, is turned upside down in the upcoming sequel, where Lady Gaga’s Quinn meets Joker as a fellow patient at Arkham State Hospital, which raises ample questions about the origin of DC’s new Harley Quinn.

When Joker 2’s director Todd Phillips was asked if there’s a potential for Lady Gaga’s Quinn to get her standalone movie in the DC Universe. He told Variety, “For me, I’ve always thought these two movies kind of exist as their own thing.” Squashing any expectation of a Quinn film at the moment, Phillips added, “And, no. I know you’re trying to get the next thing, but I don’t want to go into that.”

Joker: Folie à Deux will hit the theatres on October 2.
