Incredible Artwork Imagines Joaquin Phoenix Joker With Caesar Romero Style Makeup

Joker Joaquin Phoenix Full Makeup DC Arkham Asylum

A DC fan has altered Joaquin Phoenix’s Joker make-up in new art based on the latest set photos come from the New York set.

When Phoenix’s Joker look was revealed by director Todd Philips, many fans started to compare it to Heath Ledger’s war paint wearing, long hair version from The Dark Knight. Photos from the Joker New York set continues to offer a better look at the new cinematic version, which has allowed fans to make a few changes. The.batman. on Instagram shared a post, alternating Phoenix’s make-up. The altered version looks more akin to the Jack Nicholson and Caesar Romero versions, wearing green eyebrows and eyes with the more perma-white, comic-accurate look:

Directed by Todd Phillips from a script he co-wrote with Scott Silver, Joker stars Joaquin Phoenix, Zazie Beetz, Bill Camp, Frances Conroy, Brett Cullen, Glenn Fleshler, Douglas Hodge, Marc Maron, Josh Pais, and Shea Whigham.

“Joker” centers around the iconic arch nemesis and is an original, standalone story not seen before on the big screen. Phillips’ exploration of Arthur Fleck (Phoenix), a man disregarded by society, is not only a gritty character study, but also a broader cautionary tale.

Joker will be released in theaters on October 4, 2019. But before that Warner Bros. currently has Aquaman set to hit theaters December 21, 2018, followed by Shazam! on April 5, 2019, and Wonder Woman 1984 on June 5, 2020.

Joker is one of the many projects in the works at Warner Bros. and DC Films, including The Batman, The Flash standalone film, Green Lantern Corps, Black Adam, Supergirl, New Gods, Nightwing, Justice League Dark, and Birds of Prey.
