Lady Gaga has been spotted on the set of Joker: Folie à Deux, the highly anticipated sequel to the 2019 hit Joker. The pop icon was seen filming scenes as Harley Quinn in New York City, though Joker star Joaquin Phoenix was nowhere to be seen.
In the latest footage from the set of Joker: Folie à Deux, Lady Gaga was spotted wearing regular clothes, suggesting that Harley Quinn has yet to fully embrace her signature look at this point in the movie. Despite not donning the iconic red and black outfit just yet, Gaga appeared to be fully invested in the scene.
Joker followed Joaquin Phoenix as Arthur Fleck as he transformed into the Clown Prince of Crime and Folie á Deux now looks set to show Harleen Quinzel following him into madness, with Lady Gaga playing the DC Comics villain. Phoenix earned an Oscar for his work as The Joker.
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!
