Joker: Folie à Deux is a sequel to 2019’s Joker, which was directed by Todd Phillips and saw Joaquin Phoenix play the character of Arthur Fleck/Joker.

Phoenix also won the Academy Award for Best Actor for his performance in the film.
While Joker was originally intended to be a standalone movie, Phillips announced that a sequel was officially in development in June 2022. Phillips is once again directing the movie and co-wrote the script with Scott Silver.
Phoenix is reprising his role as Fleck in the movie, while Zazie Beetz will return as Sophie Dumond. Lady Gaga , meanwhile, is playing Dr. Harleen Quinzel/Harley Quinn.

Last month, Variety reported that it will be “ mostly a jukebox musical ” in the style of Mamma Mia! and Moulin Rouge. The full soundtrack has not been revealed at this time; although, it will supposedly feature 15 “very well-known songs,” one of them being “That’s Entertainment” from 1953’s The Band Wagon.
