Hollywood stars Lady Gaga and Joaquin Phoenix are now hard at work on the sets of Joker 2. They are currently filming their forthcoming musical thriller ‘Joker: Folie a Deux.’ A few photos from the movie’s set that show the couple dancing and smoking on the Bronx stairs recently went viral on social media.
The two can be seen dancing on the stairway. The same stairway became famous in the first Joker movie. In the viral photos from the set, we can also see both of them dancing, smoking, and laughing.
‘Joker: Folie a Deux’ has reportedly been filming for a few weeks in several New York City sites. Directed by Todd Phillips. Although the specifics of the upcoming story remain a secret. The set where Gaga’s Harley Quinn and Phoenix’s Joker will undoubtedly become involved.
The first “Joker” film was the most successful R-rated film ever in 2019. In the Venice Film Festival, it won the Golden Lion and strongly contested for 11 Academy Award nominations. Phoenix received the Best Actor Oscar, and the Oscar Best Original Award went to Hildur Gudnadottir for ‘Joker.’
The popularity of “Joker” sparked rumors of a sequel. Phillips’ idea has received little support from the recently founded DC Studios and its co-presidents James Gunn and Peter Safran. However, the DC media environment has changed since the original movie. According to Variety, the ‘Joker’ sequel won’t affect how other planned DC movies continue their story. Joker: Folie a Deux (Joker 2), from Warner Bros., will hit theaters on October 9, 2024, five years to the day after the initial film’s premiere.
