A First Look at Harley Quinn and the Joker’s Twisted Romance
The trailer teases a captivating look at Harley and the Joker’s twisted relationship. With Arkham Asylum as the backdrop, their story promises to be darker and more intense than ever. Remember the chills you got from the first “Joker” film? Get ready for even more goosebumps!
Star-Studded Cast and Musical Magic
Joining our dynamic duo is a stellar cast, including returning star Zazie Beetz and new faces like Brendan Gleeson, Catherine Keener, Jacob Lofland, and Harry Lawtey. But that’s not all—Phillips has spiced things up by adding musical elements reminiscent of Francis Ford Coppola’s “One From the Heart.” Yes, you heard that right—a Joker musical!
Lady Gaga’s Bold Take on Harley Quinn
Casting Lady Gaga as Harley Quinn was a stroke of genius by Phillips. Casting director Francine Maisler couldn't stop raving about Gaga's performance: “She’s really surprising — and really good. I saw it and I was really surprised.” Lady Gaga herself is thrilled, sharing with Access Hollywood, “My version of Harley is mine and it’s very authentic to this movie and these characters. I’ve never done anything like I’ve done in this movie before, so it’s all going to be completely brand new and really fun.”
Reliving the Magic of the Original ‘Joker’
Let’s not forget the original “Joker,” the first R-rated film to smash the $1 billion mark globally. It also snagged 11 Oscar nominations, with Joaquin Phoenix winning Best Actor and Hildur Guðnadóttir taking home Best Original Score. The bar is set high, and we can’t wait to see how “Folie à Deux” measures up!
