What if Harley Quinn, Joker’s partner in madness, was no longer Margot Robbie? This is a possibility that does not seem far away, at least for the sequel, Joker: Folie à Deux, which the filmmaker Todd Phillips is preparing with Joaquin Phoenix, as he recently announced on his social networks.
This hypothesis, not yet confirmed, has been revealed exclusively by the specialized media The Hollywood Reporter, which ensures that Gaga would currently be negotiating with Warner Bros since it would be ideal for the role, since this will be a musical film.
After the box office success of Joker (2019), with which Warner Bros. pocketed more than a billion dollars for its projections around the world, the DC Comics franchise wanted to give a blow and bet on this new film .
More details are still unknown about the contract that Lady Gaga would sign if she agreed to join the project and if she would also contribute a song to the soundtrack of the tape.
Gaga has already worked with Phillips in A Star Is Born, a film in which he participated as a producer and which earned the singer an Oscar nomination for best actress.
For his part, after the announcement of the release of this new film last week, it was also confirmed that Joaquin Phoenix will play the Joker for the second time, the role of villain that allowed him to win the Oscar for best actor in 2020.
