JOKER 2 Actor Calls It "The Worst Film That Has Ever Been Made"

Joker: Folie a Deux did not end up being the film or the big hit that Warner Bros. hoped it would be. WB CEO recently called the film a “disapointment,” and now one of the actors of the sequel is sharing his candid thought on it as well.

Tim Dillon, who played a guard at Arkham Asylum in Joker 2, was recently a guest on the Joe Rogen Podcast, and when talking about the film, he didn’t hold back, saying:

“It’s the worst film that has ever been made. It’s actually not ‘so bad.’ It’s the worst film ever made. I think what happened, after the first Joker, there was a lot of talk like, ‘Oh, this was loved by incels. This was loved by the wrong kinds of people.

“This sent the wrong kind of message. Male rage! Nihilism!’ All these think pieces. And then I think, ‘What if we went the other way,’ and now they have Joaquin Phoenix and Lady Gaga tap dancing, to a point where it’s insane… It has no plot… It’s not even hate watchable. That’s how terrible it is.”

Dillon went on to talk about how the larger crew of background actors and extras were baffled through production and were trying to discern what director Todd Phillips was trying to do.

“We would sit there, me and these other guys were all dressed in these security outfits because we’re working at the Arkham Asylum, and I would turn to one of them, and we’d hear this crap, and I’d go, ‘What the f*ck is this?’ And they’d go, ‘This is going to bomb, man.’ I go, ‘This is the worst thing I’ve ever…’”

Dillon added: “We were talking about it at lunch, and we’d go, ‘What is the plot? Is there a plot? I don’t know, I think he falls in love with her in the prison?’”

So, even a lot of the people involved with the film that ere working on it had no idea what in the hell this movie was supposed to be.

In the end, whatever Phllips was trying to do with this movie, it failed. It didn’t work, and the majority of critics, fans, and audiences didn’t like it.
