Jim Carrey won't be the real
Introducing Barry Keoghan, The New Joker Actor
Barry Keoghan is an up-and-coming actor from Dublin, Ireland. Keoghan has been acting since he was a child, appearing in small parts on television and film. But it wasn't until his breakout role in Dunkirk that he started to get noticed by Hollywood.
Warner Bros has confirmed that Joker: Folie à Deux will be released in cinemas on October 4, 2024 – assuming there are no delays, of course. The sequel started filming in December 2022, with Phillips marking the occasion by revealing the first look at Phoenix back in character.
Phillips confirmed a “Joker” sequel in June 2022 with an Instagram post teasing the title. The film is set to be released October 4, 2024 from Warner Bros. Keep scrolling to see all the details on “Joker 2.”
For many Batman fans, there is one actor who should have by now been cast as Joker but has never managed to land a role as Gotham's Clown Prince of Crime. That actor is Willem Dafoe, and it seems that the Spider-Man: No Way Home star is as interested in playing the character now as he ever has been.
While Jack Nicholson famously landed the role of The Joker, Burton approached another respected actor to play the villain: John Lithgow, who talked the young director out of casting him.
Several other actors have played Joker over the years in live-action movies, including Jack Nicholson, Heath Ledger, Jared Leto, and Joaquin Phoenix. Gavin Sabiti and 94 others like this. Johnny Depp is equal to the task.
New pictures have been released of Lady Gaga and Joaquin Phoenix from the Joker sequel, Joker: Folie à Deux. Gaga, who plays Harley Quinn in the upcoming film, shared a picture of her in character as she announced filming on the sequel had come to an end.
In the latest issue of Flashpoint Beyond #5, the Joker's real name has been revealed: Jack Oswald White. This is something that fans of DC and the character have greatly appreciated, and that is that the identity of the Joker is something that many have always tried to find out.
If there is a Joker sequel, then Batman and the Joker's possible brotherhood might be further explored. However, in the wider DC Universe, the Batman and Joker are not brothers and never were.
Is Joker really Batman's brother? Cullen spoke with THR and revealed that when he played his big bathroom confrontation scene with Phoenix, he played it as though Thomas Wayne is actually Arthur's father: “I was very surprised when I read the twist.
Arthur Fleck is a completely original name when it comes to the Joker, as it has never once been his given name, an alias, or anything else.
Reeves has since revealed that the character, played by actor Barry Keoghan, is The Joker. An earlier scene between Robert Pattinson's Batman and the character at the prison was cut, according to Reeves, who discussed all this on director's commentary for “The Batman.”
Actor Barry Keoghan is ready to return as the Joker in the upcoming DC sequel The Batman 2.
An Academy Award-winning Joaquin Phoenix film is getting a sequel, and no it's not Her 2: The Software Update. In a June 7 Instagram post, director Todd Phillips confirmed that Joker 2: Folie à Deux is in the works, with a script penned by Phillips himself and Scott Silver.
Arguably the Joker's greatest weakness is his ego, however. He turns to crime to get the attention he desperately craves from Batman.
Created by Bill Finger and Bob Kane, the character first appeared in Detective Comics #33 (November 1939). Batman: Three Jokers #1 (August 2020). In Batman's origin story, Joe Chill is the mugger who murders young Bruce Wayne's parents, Dr. Thomas Wayne and Martha Wayne.
Cesar Julio Romero, Jr. was a Cuban American film and television actor, who played The Joker in the 1960s television series Batman. In 1966, the show was transferred to movie theaters, and Romero became the first actor to portray the Joker in a motion picture.
Following her introduction to the DC Universe in 1999, Harley Quinn was depicted as the sidekick and lover of the Joker as well as the criminal associate and best friend of fellow supervillain Poison Ivy.
The Joker does not reciprocate her love and is in fact incapable of romantic emotion as he sees people only as tools to further his own plans. Harley is in denial of this fact and prefers to view him as an antihero until she eventually has to come face-to-face with his complete disregard for her.
After weeks of rumors, Lady Gaga officially joins Joaquin Phoenix in 'Joker' sequel. Though she didn't appear in “Joker,” Lady Gaga has been cast as the female lead of “Folie à Deux.” Also new to the cast is Brendan Gleeson, who will play an unspecified supporting role, according to Deadline.
So Leonardo DiCaprio was never considered for the title role because this was a film and a part crafted and envisioned from the start with Joaquin Phoenix in mind. It wasn't easy to get Joaquin Phoenix to sign on, but Todd Phillips was determined to get the actor they wrote the part for.
There were many names who circled the role of the Joker in the run up to Nicholson's casting, including Brad Dourif (purportedly Burton's preferred choice), Tim Curry, David Bowie, Willem Dafoe, and most famously Robin Williams.
Joaquin Phoenix will reprise his role as the legendary Joker in this Todd Phillips-directed, written, and co-authored film. Lady Gaga has also been confirmed to join the cast. Even though it takes place in the same universe as the previous movie, Joker 2 is anticipated to stand alone.
