Joker: Folie à Deux’s teaser trailer features Joaquin Phoenix and Lady Gaga at their chaotic best.
Fans finally got their first extended look at what to expect from the sequel to 2019’s Joker when the film’s first trailer was released Tuesday night. Warner Bros. and DC Studios tipped off fans of the pending release of the first full trailer for Joker: Folie à Deux Tuesday morning by posting 27 seconds of footage.
“The first Joker movie was a classic, this looks promising for a sequel," a user noted. Another wrote, “Wasn’t Harley Quinn supposed to be a psychiatrist that joker turned?"
The sequel marks Phoenix's return as Arthur Fleck, the central character who transitions from an aspiring stand-up comedian to a villain, with Lady Gaga portraying Dr. Harleen Quinzel, a psychiatrist.
A user KTA termed the trailer, “raw", and noted, “As for the “musical" they keep saying it’s gonna be, as long as it’s not literally singing scenes and that type of bs all through the movie it should be good. I liked the musical score they used for a lot of these scenes to help tell the story."
Joker: Folie à Deux is scheduled to hit theatres on October 4th. Shared psychotic disorder (folie à deux) is an uncommon condition characterized by the shared belief of a delusion among two or more individuals in a close relationship.
Joker set a new benchmark at the box office upon its 2019 release, becoming the first R-rated film to surpass $1 billion in earnings.
It received the Golden Lion at the Venice International Film Festival and garnered 11 Oscar nominations, winning two.
