Joaquin Phoenix will star alongside Lady Gaga in upcoming Warner Bros. sequel Joker: Folie à Deux from director Todd Phillips, and Deadline brings us more casting today.
Brendan Gleeson (“Mr. Mercedes”) has joined the cast, Deadline reports.
No word yet on the character Gleeson will be playing. Stay tuned.
We recently learned that Zazie Beetz is also in talks to reprise the role of Sophie Dumond from Joker, the neighbor that Arthur Fleck/Joker imagined having a romance with.
The sequel brings Joker back to theaters on October 4, 2024.
Filming is expected to kick off in December of this year.
“Folie à Deux” is the term meaning “shared psychosis” or “shared delusional disorder,” which is likely a reference to the fact that Lady Gaga is playing Harley Quinn.
Todd Phillips and Scott Silver are writing the sequel to the hit 2019 movie.
