The new trailer for Joker 2 or Joker: Folie A Deux has dropped and the excitement for DC’s and Warner Bros’ latest film is tangible with just the taste the studio has given fans. Joker: Folie A Deux is the sequel to the original 2019 hit film Joker, starring Joaquin Phoenix as The Joker following the reimagining take on the iconic Batman villain’s origins. This new film sees a continuation of that story, with Phoenix reprising his role as the smiling murderous clown now joined by his equally iconic partner in crime Harley Quinn, played by Lady Gaga for this iteration.
The trailer delivers delightful teases to the hinted musical aspect of this film, showing eerie sequences and snippets of scores that are sure to be hauntingly whimsical just as the clown prince of crime himself. The whole theme of descending into insanity is already evident with the two trailers showing audiences that the Joker and Quinn are just as deranged as their comic counterparts. While the trailer shows us Gaga and Phoenix having a ball terrorizing both Arkham inmates and a live studio audience, director Todd Phillips continues his trend set in the first film of delivering original fresh takes on the characters hinting at a completely different origin for Quinn with Gaga presenting her as much more than a disturbed Joker fan.
Fans of the comics and newcomers to the film will sure be in for a treat with Phillip’s continuation of this tale of the macabre. The first standalone Joker film made $1.07 billion at the box office and snagged 11 Oscar nominations. Here is hoping Joker: Folie A Deux can carry on this legacy and leave audiences reeling in shock, awe, and wondering, does it really “only takes one bad day.”
