Production for the sequel to 2019’s Oscar-winning Joker, Joker: Folie à Deux, has been ongoing since December 2022, and some behind-the-scenes shots for the DC flick have circulated recently on social media thanks to lucky fans who just so happened to be in the area during shooting.
Joker‘s lead actor, Joaquin Phoenix was captured by excited and curious fans with his clown makeup and was seen running down the streets of Los Angeles. Based on what was captured, it seems like Phoenix’s character, Arthur Fleck (aka Joker) may be slowly embracing his soon-to-be DC villain persona. At the moment, we see the character wearing two suits, one red, and one grey.
Alongside all the photos and videos is a glimpse of what has to be Joker’s full supervillain outfit that was first seen during the ending of the first film, but this time in broad daylight. Not only has he donned the red suit, but his makeup is more prominent compared to the previous photos seen above, he no longer has wounds on his face, and his hair is dyed green. It may be also hinted that Fleck may be followed by his soon-to-be villain appearance since there are two versions of Joker walking down the street together.
Joker: Folie à Deux was first teased by the film’s director, Todd Phillips, on A sneak preview of Gaga’s role as Harley Quinn was shared by Phillips on Instagram during Valentine’s Day 2023.
