Back in June, it was reported that Lady Gaga is expected to portray Harley Quinn in the new movie Joker: Folie à Deux—the sequel to Todd Phillips’ 2019 film Joker. Gaga has now shared a teaser confirming that she’ll appear in the film with co-star Joaquin Phoenix. The movie hits theaters on Friday, October 4, 2024.
Joker was nominated for the 2020 Academy Award for Best Picture, and Phoenix won Best Actor for his portrayal of Arthur Fleck (aka Joker). The film’s composer, Hildur Guðnadóttir, won a slew of awards for her score, notably winning the Oscar and the Golden Globe for Best Original Score, as well as the Grammy Award for Best Score Soundtrack for Visual Media.
At the 2019 Academy Awards, Lady Gaga was nominated for Best Actress for her role as Ally Maine in A Star Is Born. She won Best Original Song that year for “Shallow.”
Lady Gaga recently wrapped up the European leg of her tour in support of Chromatica. She begins the North American shows soon.
