"Joker: Folie À Deux" Reveals First Look at Lady Gaga in Character

Director Todd Phillips unveiled Tuesday the first look at Lady Gaga in character from the highly-anticipated movie "Joker: Folie à Deux".

“Happy Valentines Day,” Phillips captioned the photo on Instagram.

In the photo, Gaga is pictured in a scene with Joaquin Phoenix’s the Joker. Gaga is playing Harley Quinn in the sequel, part of the DC Elseworlds franchise.

While the story of the sequel to the 2019 movie "Joker" has been kept under wraps, however, it is set to be a musical and feature Lady Gaga playing the Joker’s love interest Harley Quinn.

Up until now, Margot Robbie had portrayed Quinn on the big screen in movies 2016’s "Suicide Squad", 2020’s "Birds of Prey", and 2021’s "The Suicide Squad".

The sequel also stars Catherine Keener, Brendan Gleeson, and Zazie Beetz.

"Joker: Folie à Deux" is hitting theaters on October 4, 2024. The movie is not part of the DC Universe that James Gunn and Peter Safran are building. Safran said the movie will be “labeled clearly as DC Elseworlds, just like the comics do.”

The 2019 movie was a box office success with over $1 billion at the global box office. Phoenix went on to receive an Oscar for his portrayal of the DC villain Arthur Fleck.
