JOKER: FOLIE Á DEUX Clip Sees Joker and Harley Kiss- Plus Two Behind-The-Scenes Featurettes
Warner Bros. has released a new clip from Joker: Folie À Deux and it finds Harleen "Lee" Quinzel (Lady Gaga) planting a kiss on fellow Arkham inmate and object of her obsession, Arthur Fleck (Joaquin Phoenix).
The scene in the clip features Lee visiting Arthur as he prepares to defend himself in court following the events of the first movie.
I also included two behind-the-scenes featurettes. The first offers some insight into the production, the character’s story arcs, and what drove director Todd Phillips and Phoenix to want to make this sequel.
The second featurette puts the spotlight on Gaga’s Harleen "Lee" Quinzel and explores what it is that Gaga brought to the role.
When talking about the version of Harley Quinn that we see in this movie, Phillips explained: "We respect the comics. We get the comics. In Harley's case, we watched the animated series.
“Of course, Margot Robbie is Harley Quinn. But when we run things through this film — Harvey Dent is a perfect example.
“It's actually a simpler way of talking about what we did with Harley, which was really just put the real-world lens on it, and not that other movies didn't, but just run it through our Gotham."
The movie finds “Arthur Fleck institutionalized at Arkham awaiting trial for his crimes as Joker. While struggling with his dual identity, Arthur not only stumbles upon true love, but also finds the music that's always been inside him.”
Joker: Folie á Deux is scheduled for release on October 4, 2024.
