‘Joker: Folie à Deux’ Set Photos Tease Two-Face Appearance

Will Arthur face a Two-Faced D.A.?

Harvey Dent Two Face Joker Arthur Fleck Joaquin Phoenix

Joker: Folie à Deux is set to focus on the delusions of Joaquin Phoenix’s Arthur Fleck and Lady Gaga’s Harleen Quinzel. Recent set photos tease they won’t be the only two in the film, with protestors holding signs referencing the corrupt district attorney Harvey Dent a.k.a. Two-Face.

Despite being set in a variation of the DC Universe, the Joker was relatively conservative with references to characters outside of Joker and the Wayne family. The sequel seems to be bucking this trend with the introduction of Lady Gaga as Harleen Quinzel, which is the name of the criminal psychologist which would one day become Harley Quinn. However, Harley won’t be the only familiar face. In fact, fans might see two faces as set photos from a protest scene suggest that Harvey Dent will stand in some form of opposition to Arthur Fleck in the film:

A scarred man with an affinity for flipping coins may at first seem to clash with the more grounded tone of the Joker films. However, with Harvey Dent always being portrayed as Gotham’s D.A. before his accident, it almost seems like the obvious choice for him to at least be referenced in a film dealing with the fallout of a mentally ill man’s killing spree in his city. It’s unclear at this current moment whether Harvey Dent will appear in the film or his role will be confined to this one reference.

What can audiences expect from the Joker sequel?

After the first film ended with Arthur Fleck in Arkham State Hospital, it’s likely that – as in previous iterations – Harleen Quinzel will start out as the Joker’s psychiatrist. Plot details are being kept under wraps but the a significant chunk of the sequel is expected to take place in Arkham.

Todd Phillips is directing Joker: Folie à Deux from a script he co-wrote alongside Scott Silver, who also worked on the original. Production is currently underway for an October 2024 release.

The cast of Folie à Deux also features Brendan Gleeson, Zazie Beetz, Catherine Keener, Jacob Lofland and Harry Lawtey.

The first Joker movie is currently available on 4K UHD, Blu-ray, DVD and digital formats. Stay tuned for the latest news regarding the sequel and make sure to subscribe to our YouTube channel for more content!
