Joker: Folie  Deuxs Lady Gaga Addresses Going Through Many Rewrites

As a seasoned movie buff who’s seen his fair share of blockbusters and indie films alike, I must say that the anticipation for Joker: Folie à Deux has reached an all-time high with Lady Gaga stepping into the iconic role of Harley Quinn. Having followed her career from her early days as a pop sensation to her recent foray into acting, it’s fascinating to witness her growth and transformation in this highly anticipated sequel.


If audiences aren’t thrilled with this new version of Harley Quinn, it’s unlikely to be due to any issues with the script. Despite numerous and at times exhausting revisions for “Joker: Folie à Deux,” Lady Gaga found the process of crafting an exceptional screenplay to be both enjoyable and freeing. In Joaquin Phoenix’s upcoming film, Lady Gaga takes on the significant role of bringing one of the most cherished DC characters to life in Todd Phillips’ eagerly anticipated sequel.

Despite her recent roles in notable films such as “A Star Is Born” and “House of Gucci,” where she played the leading character, Lady Gaga considers her film “Folie à Deux” to be the highest point of her acting career. In a conversation with Vogue, she expressed this sentiment.

In terms of scale, Joker: Folie à Deux is the most significant film I’ve been involved with… We’d frequently gather in Joaquin’s trailer, and on several occasions, we’d rip up the script and begin anew. It was a fascinating, freeing experience overall.

Phillips responded by saying of Gaga’s on-set work ethic and collaborative nature (below):

As a movie critic, I’d say this: “I find Joaquin Phoenix to be a meticulous artist who illuminates scenes like a beacon at the tunnel’s end. You might think we can just roll with a scene, but he insists on a thorough discussion beforehand. Hours later, we’re rewriting it on a napkin instead of shooting.

Lady Gaga’s Inner ‘Mania & Chaos’ Helped Create Her Harley

Lady Gaga is venturing into a broader realm where fan devotion can be intensely passionate or mercilessly harsh. However, playing Harley Quinn in the musically eccentric environment of the Joker: Folie à Deux appears to align well with the singer-actress’s abilities, despite Joaquin Phoenix urging her to sing off-key. In a recent interview, Gaga discusses embracing a pop culture icon and introducing her own brand of “madness” and “disorder” to the DC character. Further insights on this will follow shortly, but first let’s focus on her thoughts about tackling a cultural phenomenon.

Harley Quinn is a figure well-known within the realm of popular culture.

As a devoted cinema enthusiast, I’ve always admired Lady Gaga for her multiple nominations and Grammy Awards. However, Bradley Cooper, in his wisdom, felt that the singer’s most powerful asset – that extraordinary, soulful voice – might shine even brighter if it was toned down for the supervillain sequel. During a recent interview, he revealed the advice he shared with Gaga, his on-screen partner:

“I asked her to sing without the use of her vibrato, which is a skill she’s particularly good at.

As a movie enthusiast, I’m thrilled to see that the collaboration between Phoenix and Gaga on the big screen is shaping up for a monumental opening weekend. At the moment, it appears that Todd Phillips’ upcoming film, Joker: Folie à Deux, is projected to earn an astounding $115 million to $140 million domestically during its initial three-day run this fall. Interestingly, the original Joker (released in 2019 with earnings of $96.4 million) didn’t quite reach the $100-million mark during its debut.

The duo-madness titled “Joker” hits the big screens on October 4th. Don’t forget to watch the official movie trailer down below!
