‘Joker 2’: Zazie Beetz in talks to return for sequel

Published

on

According to Deadline, Zazie Beetz (“Bullet Train”) is in talks with Warner Bros. Discovery to reprise her role as Sophie Dumond in the “Joker” sequel, which will also be directed by Todd Phillips.

In the original film, Sophie is a neighbor of Arthur Fleck (Joaquin Phoenix), with whom he had delusions of romance.

Throughout the plot, Fleck fantasizes about being in a loving relationship with the young woman, but in the end we discover that it’s all just the fruit of his sick mind.

As of now, there are no further details on the deal between Beetz and the studio, so there’s no way of knowing how Sophie will fit into the sequel.

Meanwhile, it’s been officially announced that Oscar and Grammy winner Lady Gaga has joined Phoenix and will play crime-clown lover Harley Quinn in the DC comics.

Have fun watching:

The lineup announcement sent social media to a halt and thrilled the iconic artist’s fans – who were quick to express their excitement to watch the feature film.

Check out some of the reactions:

Marvel putting some 380 heroes from multi-connected universes into the Avengers doesn’t come close to the mega event that will be Lady Gaga making the Joker movie.

Warner has announced that it will release the film in theaters on October 4, 2024.

After a long negotiation with the studio, Phoenix will win big for the film.

When he first played Gotham’s most infamous villain in 2019’s “Joker,” Phoenix earned $4.5 million. The film grossed over a billion dollars and won the actor an Oscar.

Now the actor has asked for a significant raise for Warner Bros. To put Phoenix back in clown makeup, the studio had to shell out $20 million plus a share of box office profits. The value was revealed by The Hollywood Reporter.

The sequel will be a musical.

In ‘Joker’, Arthur Fleck (Joaquin Phoenix) works as a clown for a talent agency and has to visit a social worker every week because of his known mental problems. After being fired, Fleck reacts badly to the teasing of three men in the middle of the subway and kills them. The murders spark a grassroots movement against Gotham City’s elite, of which Thomas Wayne (Brett Cullen) is the most prominent representative.
