During the launch of her concert film Gaga Chromatica Ball, Lady Gaga spoke about Joker and her approach to Harley Quinn. The actress and singer guaranteed that it would be a completely new and unique version of the character. “You know my version of Harley is my own and it's very authentic to this movie and these characters. I've never done anything like I did in this film before," said the actress in an interview with Access Hollywood. Watch, in English, below:

Joker: Delirium for Two opens on October 3, 2024, and should be a musical starring Phoenix and Lady Gaga's Harley Quinn. Much of the film will take place in Arkham Asylum, the institution that houses several of Gotham's imprisoned supervillains. The film's script is by Todd Phillips and Scott Silver, and the film is expected to be a "jukebox musical" with 15 covers of famous songs, in which Joaquin Phoenix will star opposite a version of Harleen Quinzell, Harley Quinn, played by Lady Gaga, with many scenes inside Arkham Asylum. Zazie Beetz (Atlanta) returns for the sequel, which added Brendan Gleeson (The Banshees of Inisherin), Catherine Keener (Get Out), Harry Lawtey (Industry), and Jacob Lofland (Maze Runner) as new cast members, the latter as a character with ties to Arthur Fleck. Phillips will direct again.

Rumors about a new film about the character have been circulating Hollywood since the success of the first film, which won Phoenix an Oscar and earned more than a billion at the box office. It arrives exactly five years after the original. Joker: Folie à Deux will be one of the only DC Comics film projects not led by the division's new creative head, James Gunn. Because it is not part of the shared universe in which other studio projects, such as Superman: Legacy, the Man of Steel reboot, and The Brave and the Bold, the Batman and Robin film, exist. The production of Joker 2 is in the hands of Michael De Luca and Pam Adby, leaders of Warner Bros. Pictures, and the film will have the Elseworlds label, which indicates its separation from the new DCU.
