Joker – Folie À Deux (Madness for Two), the highly anticipated sequel to the story of Gotham City’s most beloved villain is soon upon us.
Directed and co-written by Todd Philips, this time, Joaquin Phoenix is joined by Lady Gaga, Steve Coogan, Brendan Gleeson and Catherine Keener to name just a few.
Admittedly, much of the subject matter of Joker (2019) made me sad. Thankfully, however, all the tragic material was balanced by the plenty there was to appreciate as far as great filmmaking is concerned. It is largely for this reason, plus my general appreciation of the talents of Phoenix and Phillips, that we can all consider my ticket for this release well and truly purchased.
We all have to suffer for our art sometimes, right? In this case, it’s suffering for the art I love to consume, as opposed to the art that I’m creating.
Another way I’ll potentially suffer while watching this is because I dislike, am turned off by and largely HATE 99.9% of musicals. But, hey. I at least have to try in this case, right?
Lastly, can Phillips, Joaquin and I also consider your ticket for Joker – Folie à Deux, well and truly purchased? Confirm at once!
Zazie Beetz, Brendan Gleeson, Steve Coogan, Ken Leung, Jacob Lofland, Gattlin Griffith, Leigh Gill Sharon Washington, Troy Metcalf, Harry Lawtey, Tim Dillon, George Carroll and Mike Houston also star.
Folie à Deux Release Dates: October 4th, 2024 (US & UK)…
Happy Film Loving,
