Director Todd Phillips has clarified that Arthur Fleck, portrayed by Joaquin Phoenix in 'Joker: Folie à Deux', is not intended to be Gotham's criminal mastermind, diverging from traditional depictions of the character. Phillips stated, "Arthur clearly is not a criminal mastermind. He was never that," emphasizing that Fleck's journey revolves around his search for love rather than criminal ambitions. The sequel, set for release on October 2, 2024, will introduce Lady Gaga as Harley Quinn and explore the complex dynamics of their relationship. While anticipation builds for the film, Phillips aims to present a more introspective version of Fleck, with elements of musicality included, albeit not polished performances. Joaquin Phoenix noted the importance of authenticity in his singing, enhanced by Gaga's encouragement to embrace a raw portrayal. Overall, the sequel seeks to capture Fleck's evolution as an unwilling symbol rather than a straightforward villainous arc.
