The highly anticipated sequel to the Joker, titled Joker: Folie à Deux, has left fans buzzing with excitement and curiosity. One of the biggest surprises came with the announcement that pop icon Lady Gaga would be taking on the role of Harleen Quinzel, also known as Harley Quinn. While Lady Gaga has proven her acting chops in the past, her casting as the iconic villain was unexpected yet intriguing.
What’s even more surprising is the revelation that Joker: Folie à Deux will be a jukebox musical. Traditionally, the Joker has been portrayed as a dark and twisted character in various DC Comics adaptations. However, the 2019 film offered a more realistic and somber look at the infamous Prince of Crime. The combination of the dark, gritty vibe of the Joker with the musical genre will certainly be a unique and bold move by director Todd Phillips, who plans to incorporate 15 songs into the film to convey his vision.
For fans eagerly awaiting the release of Joker 2, the burning question remains: when will tickets go on sale? In the US, ticket sales are set to begin on Monday, 9 September at 6am PT / 9am ET. As for the UK, the sale date is still unknown, but updates are expected to follow.
Produced and distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures, Joker: Folie à Deux is scheduled to premiere in both the US and the UK on Friday, 4 October 2024. The film promises to delve deeper into Arthur Fleck’s story and explore the complex relationship between the Joker and Harley Quinn.
As anticipation builds for the release of Joker: Folie à Deux, fans can expect to purchase tickets from popular chains such as AMC Theatres, Fandango, Atom Tickets, Cinemark, and MovieTickets.com in the US, while UK fans can look to Cineworld, Odeon, Vue, Picturehouse, and Showcase for ticket availability.
