Joker: Folie à Deux has an official release date.
October 4, 2024 is officially the release date for Joker: Folie à Deux. Along with Lady Gaga joining the cast as Harley Quinn, this much awaited follow-up to the 2019 film Joker is scheduled to feature Joaquin Phoenix as the titular character.
What should we anticipate from Joker: Folie à Deux's storyline?
Though specifics remain unknown, the trailer presents enticing flashes into the narrative. As Joker explores lunacy, maybe in response to his interactions with Harley Quinn, we observe his mental state worsen even more. Harley Quinn appears to be a psychiatrist at Arkham Asylum, where Arthur Fleck is receiving treatment, and their relationship becomes a complicated and maybe dangerous entanglement there. The trailer suggests ideas of love, anarchy, and the hazy boundaries separating sanity from craziness.
Is Folie à Deux a musical? Will Joker?
The Joker: Folie à Deux teaser makes clear that musical components will abound in the movie. Scenes set in what looks to be a musical performance find both Arthur Fleck and Harley Quinn singing and dancing. The movie will clearly adopt a different artistic approach than its predecessor, even if the precise degree of the musical elements is yet unknown.
What relationship exists between the DC Universe and Joker: Folie à Deux?
Though set inside the Dc Universe, Joker: Folie à Deux is not regarded as part of the main continuity, unlike the Justice League films. Like the first Joker movie, this one is supposed to be a stand-alone narrative. This means that although it might have some similarities with other DC stories, its narrative will center just on Arthur Fleck and his spiral into lunacy.
Does the title Joker: Folie à Deux mean anything?
Indeed, the title Joker: Folie à Deux is rather important. French medical jargon, "shared psychosis," suggests the shared craziness between Arthur Fleck and Harley Quinn. It implies that their relationship will be a major focus and that both of them will shape each other's spiral into madness.
Joker: Folie à Deux will feature what more characters?
Apart from Harley Quinn and Arthur Fleck, the teaser flashes hints of other characters. A fleeting view of what looks to be a young Bruce Wayne suggests that the movie might address the early years of the Batman mythos. There also are hints of other people living at Arkham Asylum, maybe including Dc Universe villains.
