| Topic | First look at Lady Gaga as Harley Quinn in Joker 2 |

Joker ended with Arthur becoming The Joker and being arrested for well, Joker shit. Knowing how all variations of the character work you can surmise he went to Arkham for psychiatric treatment pretty much immediately after his arrest. We already know Harleen's story across multiple variations of the character and it's pretty easy to see how A: Joker could waltz right into that story from its ending without the need for Arthur to have established a career as a notorious criminal mastermind, and B: how that story could, playing out pretty much to the letter how it does in nearly every adaptation, be well adapted to the overall aesthetic and style of the previous film. Casting seems on point, Lady Gaga has been establishing herself more and more in film and imagining her playing a crazy/sadistic clown is not far fetched at all. In a vacuum making it a musical is an unconventional choice but paired with her casting it comes together, nevermind how much people gripe about super hero movies all being the same thing... so why the issue with going off and making a very unconventional choice for a superhero IP? --- "Now, was that civilized? No, clearly not. Fun, but in no sense civilized." ... Copied to Clipboard! |
