The film, which serves as the sequel to the 2019 blockbuster and award winning movie, introduces the character of Harley Quinn into the picture, a prospect that’s exciting for fans of the comic book franchise.
Joker 2 poster
The poster was shared on the film’s social media accounts. “The world is a stage,” reads the tagline. It was also revealed that the first official trailer will be released on April 9.
The image shows Phoenix wearing Joker’s clown makeup, a tuxedo, and holding on to a cigarrette, while Gaga stars as Quinn. She’s wearing a white dress, and has some red lipgloss smeared over her lips.
The two are seen dancing while a light seeps through a window, likely from within the walls of Arkham State Hospital, the location where the Joker was last seen in the previous film.
