A new trailer for the film dropped during CinemaCon on April 9.
The first trailer for Joker Folie à Deux is finally here, and it promises musical theatrics, show-stopping performances by Joaquin Phoenix and Lady Gaga, and deliriously fun chaos ahead for Joker and Harley Quinn.
During CinemaCon on Tuesday, Warner Bros. released the first trailer for the highly anticipated sequel, which is slated to hit theaters exactly five years to the day after its predecessor danced into cinemas.
In the nearly two-and-a-half-minute teaser, Phoenix plays a gaunt and disheveled Arthur Fleck — the real name of Joker’s character in the DC Comics — as he serves his time in Arkham State Hospital for the murder of Robert De Niro’s character in Joker. The failed stand-up comedian quickly has his interest piqued when he catches the eye of Gaga’s character, purportedly a fellow patient at the hospital.
“We use music to make us whole, to balance the fractures within ourselves,” a voiceover narrates, setting the tone for the movie-musical.
The video then shows the progression of Joker and Harley Quinn’s love story, falling fast as they live and dance through a world of their own, heavily influenced by classics like Singing in the Rain and The Wizard of Oz.
It ultimately comes to a head when Joker is grilled about how his life has evolved since first being locked up, to which he points to Gaga’s character as the impetus for his newfound happiness and love of life again.
“Tell us, Arthur, what’s changed?” asks Steve Coogan’s character, whose name has yet to be revealed by Warner Bros.
“Well, I’ll tell you what’s changed, I’m not alone anymore,” Joker responds as the clip cuts to a montage of scenes with Harley.
The trailer comes one week after the first poster for the sequel showed Phoenix and Gaga’s characters dancing in a spotlight while wearing their comic characters’ infamous clown makeup. The poster was also adorned with the message, “the world is a stage,” teasing that Harley and Joker will perform together for the world to see, an idea also reiterated throughout the trailer.
At one point in the new video, a TV set lights up with “Joker & Harley” on a backdrop and a series of fast clips show the characters engaged in a variety musical series much like The Sonny & Cher Comedy Hour.
The poster and trailer are exciting signs that the movie is almost here after five years of waiting and nearly two years since Gaga was first announced to be joining the cast as Harley Quinn.
In anticipation of the new film, ET is answering some of the biggest questions surrounding the movie, including who’s in it, what it’s about, and when we can see it.
