Joaquin Phoenix
“Joker: Folie à Deux” has more in common with the disastrous series finale of “Seinfeld” than it does with the polarizing original film—a listless slog sure to anger Joker fans.
One critic even called it “blockbuster filmmaking as a form of collective punishment.”
The “Joker” star didn’t want to talk out of turn about his reasons for leaving the Todd Haynes movie just days before it was due to start filming.
Just five days before production was set to begin, the actor dropped out of the film for which director Todd Haynes said Phoenix was “the driving force.”
Never in a million years did we think this Batman-meets-La La Land sequel to 2019’s “Joker” would look this good. Check out the newly released first trailer.
The Daily Beast’s Obsessed critic spotlights the 10 best films of the year, including a mouth-watering doc, psychosexual romp, and one-half of Barbenheimer.
The director’s extended version of the Joaquin Phoenix-starring epic sounds ridiculous and exhausting. It will also probably be great.
